Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at D’Inspire Residence
A freehold address with a wide spread of sizes in Nusa Bestari. Here is the case, and the catch.
Freehold, studios to penthouses
Layouts run from 446 sq ft studios through 2 to 4-bedroom units to penthouses, so the building suits both single tenants and families.
Everyday shopping close by
iProperty lists AEON, Lotus’s and TF Value-Mart within about 2 km, with a bus stop opposite the development.
Hospitals and LEGOLAND within reach
Columbia Asia is about 4 km away and LEGOLAND Malaysia about 9 km, according to iProperty.
What to weigh: plenty of rental supply
With 585 units and dozens of rent listings on PropertyGuru in October 2026, landlords compete for tenants. There is no published transacted median, so ask for recent sale records for your layout.

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.
- ⚠️ 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

| Down payment | RM30,000 | RM90,000 |

| Stamp duty on transfer (MOT) | RM5,000 | RM24,000 |
| Stamp duty on loan (0.5%) | RM1,350 | RM1,050 |
| Lawyer, sale agreement (incl. 8% SST) | RM4,050 | RM4,050 |

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.
