Most of the apartments in the area are medium-cost housing and range between RM115,000 and RM130,000. There are no lifts in the building, so walking up 5 floors may be too much for some. There are also no covered parking bays. Most of the units at Gladden Court are owner occupied and rental units are few even though rental rates per month are only around RM700. There are not many facilities within the compound to service the residents but the many amenities nearby more than make up for it. There is also a twice-weekly night market besides the Pasar Besar Bandar Baru Ampang morning market nearby to cater to the high-density population in the area. Gladden Court was built by Talam Corporation, which has been deep in debt for many years. There have been many complaints about the company and its subsidiaries for its poor management and abandoned projects. Gladden Court was completed in 1996 before the economic crisis and is a leasehold property.
