According to the developer, the commercial component of Amara Service Residences has high potential to shine as it covers a large catchment area of over 10,000 residents within walking distance from this building, Taman Raintree and Laksamana. Adding to that, it enjoys a population catchment of over 150,000 residents from surrounding neighborhoods of Gombak, Selayang, Kepong and Kuala Lumpur. The major plus point of Amara Service Residences is that it is located 100 meter walking distance from Batu Caves KTM Station. However, it is sited near the YTL Cement packing plant, which some say should not give contamination.Nevertheless, Amara Service Residences was built with modern facade and full range of facilities that become another attraction. it is also located near to the main highways. As for the retail lot, it might be hard for business as the area does not feel like a business area. However, it might turn out other way due to the mature population catchment.
