5 things to check before signing the Setia V Residences SPA

  1. 1.Sinking fund health — confirm the current balance and whether any special assessment is pending in the next 12 months.
  2. 2.Last 3 maintenance billings — verify payment is up to date and there are no outstanding dues from the seller.
  3. 3.JMC minutes (last 12 months) — look for recurring complaints, structural concerns, or planned major works.
  4. 4.Common-area condition — physically walk the pool deck, lifts, lobbies, gym, and parking ramps. Photo anything concerning for negotiation leverage.
  5. 5.Internal pipes + electrical — for buildings 10+ years old, ask for a recent plumbing inspection report. Pipe replacement is a five-figure capex you don't want to discover post-VP.

What are subsale prices at Setia V?

Asking prices typically start from about RM2.7M, with PSF around RM1,000–1,400 depending on floor, facing and renovation. WhatsApp Zac for current listings.

How many units and towers?

Two towers (48 and 43 storeys) with 178 units in total — a relatively low-density luxury count for the area.

Is it a good building for own-stay?

Can foreigners buy at Setia V Residences?
