The Island of Dream
I visited the show village last weekend. The show house and marketing hype are amazing. But I think the price will not be easily stomached by the local residents.

After SP Setia commenced this project in Penang island, the real estate market here was pushed to a new height.
Currently, most new residential projects for landed property consist of 2 1/2 & 3-storey terrace houses, and semi-detached.
The price range from RM600k to over a million ringgit.

Fire Works at Setia Pearl Island
A series of event was being held there, including concerts by popular pop star, all free for public visits.
This is a video of the fireworks.

Great Marketing
The show village is so nicely built. What I feel great about is the prestige it makes you perceive, as if it is the best place to stay in Penang island.But the fact is that the area is so "ulu". It might takes 20-30 minutes drive after you exit Penang Bridge to arrive home.

Great Interior Design
Two generation house design
All the houses are built on the two-generation concept, where there are 5 rooms, including two identical master bedroom.
This is a smart move because most young generation will not be able to afford a home that cost over RM800,000! It might be affordable if the older generation sell their "old house", then buy one at Setia Pearl Island. Probably putting a down payment of RM400,000, then ask the younger generation to loan the rest.
The result is, the younger generation will have to stay with their old parents. This seems to be the trend. If not, why all the units in first and second phases are sold out within a few weeks after launched?

Great Investment?
Most Penangites believe that the property prices on Penang island will never drop.
Buying these expensive houses for investment is risky, because not many can afford it. Buying one and renovating it to be your own sweet home, I would say it is a luxury.
