Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at Icon Residenz

A rail-linked PJ address inside a mixed development. Here is the case, and the catch.

🚆

Two Komuter stations nearby

StarProperty places Seri Setia and Setia Jaya KTM Komuter stations within walking distance, and portals also list Kelana Jaya LRT as nearby.

🛣️

On the Federal Highway and LDP

Mah Sing describes Icon City as sitting where the Federal Highway and LDP meet, with the NKVE and KESAS also reachable.

🏙️

Shops and offices on site

Icon City also holds shop-offices, SoVo units, a retail mall, a hotel and office towers, according to StarProperty.

⚖️

What to weigh: a muddled record

Unit counts (324 to 582) and completion dates differ between portals, and listings under the Icon City name include small studios that may sit in other towers. Confirm the exact block, size and title before you offer.

The recorded numbers

The price numbers

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.

All figures here are asking or launch prices, not recorded sales; we found no project-level transacted figure we could verify. Mudah also lists studios of about 400–473 sq ft at RM1,600–1,800 a month under the Icon Residenz name, smaller than the published 550 sq ft minimum, so they may be in other Icon City towers.

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 675 to 1,405 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.

The real cost
