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 599 to 1,216 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.

  • ⚠️ A newer project, so many owners are renting out at the same time. Expect competition for tenants for the first few years.
  • ⚠️ 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

Frequently asked questions

How many units are there and what sizes?

There are 458 serviced apartments in two blocks of 27 and 31 storeys, according to SKS Group. The developer lists four layouts: a 599 sq ft studio, an 882 sq ft two-bedroom, a 1,054 sq ft 2+1-bedroom and a 1,216 sq ft three-bedroom unit.

Is Twin Tower Residence freehold?

Yes. SKS Group, PropertyGuru and iProperty all record freehold tenure.

Can a foreigner buy here?

In Johor a foreign buyer generally needs to pay at least RM1 million per residential property, with state consent.

PropertyGuru asking prices in October 2026 ran from about RM400,000 to RM1.28 million, so most units are below RM1 million and only the largest 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.
