AI-researched delivery record, not yet confirmed by the developer. Dates may be approximate; original sources are linked.
AI research over published reviews and resident comments. Scores are a model’s reading of opinion, not figures stated on a page, and nothing here feeds any number above it. The links under each block are the pages that research says it used. Based on available resident reviews of covered buildings. These are reported experiences, not independent building inspections, and may not represent all residents or properties.

The largest published review base located is the Pinnacle Schofields place listing’s 3.5/5 from two reviews, which converts to 5.5/10 under the specified curve. The evidence is too sparse to establish a separate structure score; no recurring theme was counted because the readable review evidence does not establish a repeated complaint or repeated praise theme. | |||
A September 2026 report about a Schofields Bathla apartment identified defects including flooring that “needs to be pulled up and relaid,” scratched shower mixers, peeling kitchen-cabinet laminate and bathroom silicone that was “poor and coming off.” The resident said these issues had been raised with Bathla representatives “to no avail”; this is serious contemporaneous reporting, but it is one resident account rather than a published structural rating for Pinnacle II specifically. | The available place listing publishes 3.5/5 from two reviews and includes praise that staff had “a great team work to attend to tenants concerns” and showed “professional service and promptness.” In contrast, a September 2026 report quotes a Schofields Bathla apartment resident saying defects were raised with representatives “to no avail” and that representatives “didn’t seem to know what they were doing,” so management evidence is mixed and sparse. |
