State housing and local government committee chairman Datuk Mohd Jafni Md Shukor said demand for properties in Johor has gone up since last year’s announcement about the SEZ. “The property overhang issue in Johor has been improving steadily since the start of last year. The announcement has further boosted sales.

More than 2,000 units of unsold serviced apartments in Johor have been snapped up since last year, thanks to the development of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (SEZ).

“We have been seeing a rising demand for properties, including serviced apartments that were previously difficult to sell. Some developers said they were able to sell all of their properties that they were not able to before,” he said after presenting aid to students enrolling in higher learning institutes at Dewan Raya Kampung Melayu yesterday.

According to Mohd Jafni, serviced apartments priced at RM600,000 and above make up the majority of Johor’s overhang. “We have no problem with other types of houses in Johor. The only properties that are rather challenging to sell are serviced apartments above half a million ringgit.

“Currently, there are about 11,000 unsold serviced apartment units in Johor. This is a drop from about 13,000 earlier last year,” he said.

Mohd Jafni said the move to ease the conditions of the Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) programme last year has also helped to reduce the overhang.

“I believe the remaining unsold properties will be sold in the next two to three years, allowing us to solve this issue once and for all,” he said.

KSL is a Johor property development company.

Crescendo represents better chances of making higher profit by end of Sept. It also going to give high dividend.

Johor property stocks prices have gone up too high and therefore priced in already

Ksl now selling 20x70 double storey houses in lima kedai (located quite at the fringe)

At this price you can get a double storey in Bukit indah corner with land or can get a Semi Detached house in Taman Perling for less than that

Both Bukit Indah and Taman Perling are nearer to Singapore 2nd link and Ciq jb

And for two storey houses in Taman Perling / Bukit Indah you can still get around Rm650,000 to Rm720,000 (but better hurry up)

Also there are now too many many new highrise condos in jb city

Best buy should still be
Low cost landed houses below Rm300,000

And single storey houses below Rm500,000

Above are the best buys for now as they don't build landed low cost houses or single storey houses anymore

For new double storey houses there are now located far away

One day when Jb Spore Rts ready by Dec 2026 all landed houses will have gone much much higher

Fyi

Single storey houses
In Greenland Penang range from Rm900,000 to Rm1.2 Millions

Landed single storey houses in Bangsar KL (very old) now ranged Rm1.3 millions to Rm1.6 millions

So within 30 minutes drive from Jb causeway or 2nd link and single storey house below Rm500,000 are still bargains

Best buy

Also can rent fast
