KIP Group was founded in 1993 and works across property development, shopping malls (KIP Mart / KiP Mall) and hotel management. It has been active in Johor Bahru for more than 15 years and is a mid-sized regional developer. 8scape is one of the group's flagship projects, with a GDV of RM 822 million. Take-up was slow when it launched in 2014 (EdgeProp reported slow but steady take-up), and buyers organised a Change.org petition over project delays, so the history of late delivery is worth noting.

What I will not hide from you
Every project has weaknesses. An agent not mentioning them does not make them go away — it just means you find out after you have signed. Here is what is actually wrong with this one.
There is a record of delayed handover and slow take-up in the early years; watch KIP Group's delivery record on subsequent projects
At 1,255 units the development is large, so secondary supply is heavy and competition is intense
