The Journey to Homeownership: Mercu Jalil’s VP and LBS Perks & Plusses Rewards Program
Recently, Mercu Jalil, an apartment complex nestled in the heart of Bukit Jalil, initiated the Vacant Possession (VP) process for its homeowners. This vibrant apartment boasts two blocks, each with 680 units, making a total of 1,360 units. With two distinct unit types, Type A at 1,000 square feet and Type B at 1,200 square feet, Mercu Jalil offers modern living on 5.43 acres of strata-titled land. What sets it apart is its strategic location, near major highways like KESAS Highway, Maju Expressway, and Bukit Jalil Highway, as well as close proximity to Tzu Chi Kuala Lumpur International School, Pavilion Bukit Jalil, and Alam Sutera LRT Station. The apartment complex also offers 16 facilities, with 9 on the ground floor and 7 on the 9th floor.
The VP process marks the handover of a vacant unit to homeowners, void of any equipment or furniture beyond what’s specified in the Sale and Purchase Agreement (SNP). However, before this transfer occurs, the developer must obtain the Certificate of Completion and Compliance (CCC) and ensure that water and electricity services are operational. In essence, this process assures homeowners that their new abode is ready and safe to occupy. Interestingly, Mercu Jalil has embraced a digital approach for the entire VP process, promoting sustainability by eliminating paper usage.
On October 6, 2023, Mrs. Alicia and her partner received the long-awaited call from LBS Bina to take possession of their new home in Mercu Jalil. It marked a historic day for the couple who had purchased their unit during the 2020 pandemic. This was their first experience buying from LBS Bina Group, and they chose Mercu Jalil after careful consideration of location, pricing, and offers. For them, the strategic location, excellent access to public transportation, and proximity to major highways were the key factors influencing their decision. The homeownership process proved to be straightforward, with Mrs. Alicia and Mr. Clarence only having to wait for the keys, as the housing project was still under construction at the time of purchase.
The couple’s unit is a Type A with 1,000 square feet of space and two parking spots, situated on the 36th floor of the A block, which boasts a total of 46 floors. They were delighted with the quality of the finishing and the breathtaking view from their elevated residence. They plan to hire contractors to inspect their unit for any defects or finishing issues, making full use of the 24-month Defect Liability Period (DLP), which began on September 7, 2023. Mrs. Alicia intends to personalize the unit to her liking and will move in once everything is in place.
Thrilled with their decision to purchase in Mercu Jalil, Mrs. Alicia and her family were further delighted to learn about the LBS Perks & Plusses loyalty program. This program rewards LBS property buyers with a range of privileges, including referral programs, cash rebates for second home purchases, early access to new project launches, and invitations to exclusive events. Members of this program also enjoy special offers and benefits from 39 LBS Perks & Plusses strategic partners, such as Watsons, Coway, Acson, Goodnite, and many more. The program is complimentary for any individual or corporate buyers who have purchased LBS properties or its subsidiaries with a minimum purchase price of RM150,000.
On October 28 and 29, 2023, LBS hosted a “Mini-Fest” for the LBS Perks & Plusses rewards program at Mercu Jalil apartment, Bukit Jalil. The two-day event featured a variety of engaging activities. One of the highlights was a lucky draw with prizes from Watsons, Gintell, Acson, and Goodnite. The event also included free gifts from strategic partners of the rewards program. With 16 strategic partners participating, homeowners collecting their keys at Mercu Jalil, Bukit Jalil added to the festive atmosphere. The event successfully introduced the LBS Perks & Plusses reward program to the homeowners under LBS Bina Group, offering a glimpse of the many benefits awaiting them in their new Mercu Jalil homes.
