Analysis

Lagoon Perdana is one of the projects located in a booming area of Bandar Sunway, with major developments for the past few years. There are numerous township facilities available nearby including schools, shopping centers such as Sunway Pyramid, Subang Parade, The Summit, and Mydin Mall.
As Lagoon Perdana is within walking distance to Sunway Pyramid and colleges, this building should be a good and stable choice for those who want to rent out the apartments to students or workers. Over 2011 to 2012, the management put a lot of effort into improving maintenance and security, hence, the price is steadily increasing. On the downside, Lagoon Perdana has been highlighted in The Star in June 2010 regarding poor quality workmanship and other problems associated with these apartments.
Some tenants also complain about the lack of security at Lagoon Perdana. A resident of the property has been robbed twice, once was during daylight. There is also concern about entries for visitors that are not taken care by the management.
