Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Elita @ The Straits View
A low-density freehold block with big layouts. Here is the case, and the catch.
Large layouts in a small block
With 113 units in one tower, PropertyGuru lists layouts from 1,765 sq ft up to 4,920 sq ft.
Pool, courts and clubhouse
The developer’s website describes a clover-shaped pool with cabanas, jacuzzi and sauna, plus tennis, squash and basketball courts.
Close to Singapore
The developer’s website puts the project less than eight minutes from Singapore; treat this as an approximate marketing figure.
What to weigh: thin listings and conflicting records
Only a handful of units are advertised at any time (5 for sale and 3 for rent on PropertyGuru in October 2026), and completion year and smallest size differ between sources. EdgeProp’s page for the project shows 750 units, which does not match this 113-unit building, so no transacted median is quoted.

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.
| Measure | Figure | Source and date |
|---|---|---|
| Asking price for sale, all sizes | From about RM698,000 · RM370–439 psf | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent whole units | From about RM3,300 a month | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
Both rows are asking prices seen on PropertyGuru in October 2026 (5 for sale, 3 for rent), not transactions. No reliable transacted median for this specific building was found, because EdgeProp’s page lists 750 units.

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
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 (RM1 million in Johor) 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.
- ⚠️ More than ten years old. Ask for the last AGM minutes and how much maintenance owners still owe; arrears show up as poor upkeep later.
- ⚠️ Most asking prices here are below RM1 million, so most units cannot be sold to foreigners in Johor. On resale, your buyers will mainly be locals.
- ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. Compare any offer with the recorded transacted price per sq ft above before you commit.
The real cost
What buying here costs in 2026

| Down payment | RM70,000 | RM210,000 |

| Stamp duty on transfer (MOT) | RM15,000 | RM56,000 |

| Lawyer, sale agreement (incl. 8% SST) | RM8,910 | RM8,910 |

Can a foreigner buy here?
In Johor a foreign buyer generally needs to pay at least RM1 million per residential property, with state consent. Since 1 July 2025 Johor charges foreign buyers a consent levy of 3% of the price or RM30,000, whichever is higher, and stamp duty on transfers to foreigners is a flat 8% from 1 January 2026. Bumiputera lots, low-cost and affordable units, Malay Reserve land and single or one-and-a-half-storey terraces are closed to foreigners. PropertyGuru asking prices start around RM698,000 and the layouts are large, so only units priced at RM1 million or more could qualify, and only if the unit is not on a Bumiputera lot.

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.
