Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at Arte Plus

A large serviced residence off Jalan Ampang with unusual shared facilities. Here is the case, and what to check.

📍

An address off Jalan Ampang

The towers sit on Jalan Ampang Ulu 3, with Jelatek LRT and the Ampang Park stations named as the nearest rail links on PropertyGuru and iProperty, and the Ampang–Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway close by.

🏊

Facilities built into the towers

The developer lists a Swedish garden, a lazy river spa, a Technogym super gym, an organic-shaped pool, a cloud podium and a floating garden.

🔑

A deep rental market

In October 2026 iProperty showed about 155 serviced residence units for rent, mostly furnished, at about RM1,600 to RM3,500 a month.

⚖️

What to weigh: uneven recorded prices and leasehold

EdgeProp reported in July 2025 that sales of 700 to 800 sq ft units here ranged from RM523 to RM1,249 psf within a year, and its recorded median of RM841 psf sits well above most October 2026 asking prices. Value a unit on recent comparable sales and check the remaining lease.

The recorded numbers

What units here actually sell and rent for

Recorded sales and asking prices are different things. Transacted figures come from deals recorded with the government valuation department; asking figures are what owners or the developer are listing at.

median, recorded sales
RM841 psf (middle range RM523–948 psf), last 48 monthsEdgeProp project page, Oct 2026

The transacted row is EdgeProp’s median of recorded sales over the 48 months to October 2026, with an implied gross yield of about 3.8%. EdgeProp reported in July 2025 that recorded prices here swung widely, so the median may sit above what typical units fetch. The asking sale range is from PropertyGuru listings seen in October 2026 and the asking rents from iProperty listings dated late September to early October 2026. Ask Jason for recent recorded sales of your unit size before you offer.

Is it for you?

Which kind of buyer are you?

The same building suits different people for different reasons. Pick the line that sounds like you.

🏠 Living here yourself

Layouts here run from about 552 to 1,039 sq ft. Ask me which stacks get the better view and the least afternoon sun; that changes the price more than the floor.

💰 Buying to rent out

Compare the recorded rents in "The price numbers" above with the instalment on your loan. Smaller layouts usually rent faster; larger ones hold tenants longer.

👨‍👩‍👧 Family with children

Check the school and clinic distances in the location section, the number of car parks per unit and how busy the lifts are at 7.30 am.

✈️ Buying from overseas

Foreigners can only buy above the state minimum price and pay 8% stamp duty from 2026. Ask me which units here qualify before you shortlist.

Straight talk

What I will not hide from you

Every project has trade-offs. These are the ones I would want to know before paying a deposit.

  • ⚠️ A newer project, so many owners are renting out at the same time. Expect competition for tenants for the first few years.
  • ⚠️ Leasehold title. Check how many years remain on the lease; banks lend less, and buyers pay less, as the lease gets shorter.
  • ⚠️ Serviced apartments usually sit on commercial land. Utility tariffs and some loan terms can be less favourable than for a residential title.
  • ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. Compare any offer with the recorded transacted price per sq ft above before you commit.

Asking prices in October 2026 ran from about RM261,000 to RM650,000, so units here fall well below the minimum and are generally not open to foreign buyers.

iProperty listings from late September to early October 2026 asked about RM1,600 to RM2,600 a month for 1 bedroom, RM1,700 to RM2,200 for 2 bedrooms and RM2,500 to RM3,500 for 3 bedrooms, mostly fully furnished. About 155 units were listed, so expect competition for tenants.

I work with local families, investors and buyers from Singapore and overseas. If a project is not right for what you need, I will say so; that is usually worth more than the brochure.
