YTL Land & Development Berhad has been pioneering lifestyles for
many years not surprising as its parent company, YTL Corporation,
began as a construction company in 1955, building hospitals, offices
and ammunition depots for the British Army. Today, property together
with construction, cement, power, E-business Solutions, and hotels,
resorts and leisure form YTL Corporations core focus as an integrated
infrastructure developer with operations on three continents and a
combined market capitalisation of over US$9 billion. YTL Corporation
is also one of the largest companies listed on the Kuala Lumpur Stock
Exchange and the first Asian non-Japanese company to be listed on
the Tokyo Stock Exchange (secondary listing since 1996).
Since its inception, YTL Land has enjoyed an illustrious track record
by creating some of Malaysias most unique landmarks, from award-
winning island resorts to shopping centres to lifestyle homes. Its
commitment to deliver projects on time, ahead of schedule and within
budget has led YTL Land to amazing new opportunities in property
development. Undeniably, their success also harks to a combination
of strong business acumen, keen consumer insights and a knack for
the extraordinary.
Staying fresh and keeping ahead of the times, while challenging, does
pay as it means being able to provide customers with what they need
before they have even realised they want it. With each succeeding
housing project, from Spanish-inspired condo-villas to lakefront homes,
to the unique lifestyle of park living in Sentul, YTL Land continues to
create varied lifestyles and set new benchmarks in Malaysias property
sector.
In keeping with its promise of offering unique living experiences, YTL
Land recently introduced Waterville at the iconic Lake Edge address.
Waterville is a charming collection of 2 1/2-storey semi-detached
homes that come with a private pool, amidst a spacious 4,117 sqf
built-up. Like all other YTL Land projects, Lake Edge has a proven
track record of good capital appreciation and high take-up rates, as
demonstrated with the debut of Courtyard Homes, which sold out
within three days of its official launch in 2004. Lake Edge has also
been recently recognised as the countrys Best Residential Low Rise
Development at the FIABCI Malaysia Property Awards 2008.

Developer Review
Since developing its first luxury project Duta Nusantara in 2002, S P
Setia has established a sterling reputation by constantly raising the bar
in high-end developments. In fact, Duta Nusantara among the first
landed luxury developments in the Sri Hartamas area featuring semi-
Ds and bungalows went on to win the Best Low-Rise Residential
Development in the FIABCI Malaysia Property Awards 2006.
Bearing more testimony to the viability of this project is the fact that
the properties have also appreciated by over 100 per cent, with
excellent rental yield in excess of 12 per cent annually. Not one to rest
on its laurels, S P Setia continued its winning streak with the sold-out
success of Duta Tropika, another high-end project in 2005 featuring
three-storey villas.
In 2007, the company again wowed luxury-seekers with a unique
offering in the form of spa-villas. Its Setiahills development attained
new heights of luxury with the introduction of 45 units of Tropical
Spa-villas, located on a 15-acre hillock, amidst the lush foliage of the
Ampang Forest Reserve.
If luxury within natures warm embrace is what you are after, Setia
Eco Park makes that dream a reality. Spread across 791 acres of
prime freehold land in Shah Alam, Setia Eco Park is renowned for its
