Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Tropez Residences
A large freehold waterfront-side community with a long rental list. Here is the case, and the catch.
Part of Tropicana Danga Bay
The towers sit inside a 37-acre freehold township, which Tropicana Corporation describes as a ten-minute drive from Singapore via the Causeway.
Freehold, from compact units
Layouts start at about 689 sq ft on StarProperty’s figures, with larger units up to about 1,798 sq ft.
Resort-style facilities
StarProperty and PropertyGuru list pools, tennis and squash courts, a gymnasium and sky lounges.
What to weigh: large supply and a wide price history
With 1,149 units, PropertyGuru showed about 94 sale and 292 rental listings in October 2026. EdgeProp’s median is RM522 psf, but individual sales have been recorded from RM248 psf (June 2020) to RM1,205 psf (October 2017).

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 |
|---|---|---|
| Transacted price median, last 48 months | RM522 psf · typical RM454–597 psf | EdgeProp, viewed Oct 2026 |
| Launch price at launch | From RM306,900 | StarProperty property review |
| Asking price for sale, all sizes | From about RM290,000 · RM305–734 psf | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent whole units and rooms | About RM1,500–3,000 a month | PropertyGuru rent listings, Oct 2026 |
The transacted row is EdgeProp’s record of completed sales over 48 months. Sale and rent rows are asking prices seen on PropertyGuru in October 2026, not transactions.

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 689 to 1,798 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 (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.
- ⚠️ Serviced apartments usually sit on commercial land. Utility tariffs and some loan terms can be less favourable than for a residential title.
- ⚠️ 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
Worked example for a unit at RM310,000, around the typical asking price here. Your figures will differ with the price and the bank.
| Malaysian buyer (90% loan) | Foreign buyer (70% loan) | |
|---|---|---|
| Purchase price | RM310,000 | RM310,000 |
| Down payment | RM31,000 | RM93,000 |
| Loan amount | RM279,000 | RM217,000 |
| Stamp duty on transfer (MOT) | RM5,200 | RM24,800 |
| Stamp duty on loan (0.5%) | RM1,395 | RM1,085 |
| Lawyer, sale agreement (incl. 8% SST) | RM4,185 | RM4,185 |
| Lawyer, loan agreement (incl. 8% SST) | RM3,767 | RM2,930 |
| Cash needed before keys | RM45,547 | RM126,000 |
| State consent fee for foreigners | – | 3% of the price or RM30,000 (Johor) |
Estimates only. Stamp duty: 1–4% tiers for Malaysians and PRs, 8% flat for foreigners from 1 Jan 2026. Legal fees follow the Solicitors’ Remuneration Order 2023. First-time Malaysian buyers of homes up to RM500,000 may get a stamp duty exemption until 2027. Valuation, disbursements and moving costs are not included.

Frequently asked questions
How many units are there and what sizes?
There are 1,149 serviced residences in three towers (two of 38 storeys and one of 29, per StarProperty). StarProperty gives sizes from 689 to 1,798 sq ft, while PropertyGuru gives 463 to 1,650 sq ft.
Is Tropez Residences freehold?
Yes. PropertyGuru, StarProperty and iProperty all record freehold tenure.
Can a foreigner buy here?
In Johor a foreign buyer generally needs a purchase price of RM1 million or more (the state minimum can vary by area and property type), must obtain state consent from the Johor Land and Mines Office, and cannot buy Bumiputera lots, low-cost or affordable units, Malay Reserve land or single or one-and-a-half-storey terraces. Stamp duty on the transfer of a home is a flat 8% for foreign buyers from 1 January 2026. Johor also charges foreign buyers a consent levy of 3% of the price or RM30,000, whichever is higher (since 1 July 2025). Most asking prices at Tropez Residences are below RM1 million, so only the largest units priced at RM1 million or more could qualify, and only if the unit is not on a Bumiputera lot.
How much does a unit rent for?
PropertyGuru rent listings in October 2026 asked about RM1,500 to RM3,000 a month, depending on size and whether a room or whole unit is let.

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.
