Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at D’Ryx Residences
Large, private condominium homes near AEON Mall in Batu Kawa. Here is the case, and the catch.
Private entrances
Homes are reached through a private corridor, which the developer calls a ‘semi-D in the sky’.
AEON Mall two minutes away
The developer lists AEON Mall about 2 minutes, Timberland Medical Centre about 3 minutes and Swinburne about 8 minutes away.
Condominium facilities
A pool and kids’ pool, sky garden, gym and fitness deck, forest lounge, BBQ pit and shaded parking.
What to weigh: price and furnishing
List prices ran from RM979,000 to about RM1.6 million and resale asking prices in October 2026 from RM950,000 to RM1.9 million, high for Kuching, with few listings to compare. The developer marketed the units furnished; check what is included in a subsale, plus the lease term and maintenance fee.

The recorded numbers
What units here sell and rent for
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 for sale, 3+1 bed to penthouse | RM950,000 – RM1,900,000 · about RM522–694 psf | iProperty listings, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent whole unit | from RM3,000 a month | PropertyGuru listings, Oct 2026 |
| Developer list price (launch) on the IQI listing | RM979,000 – RM1,599,000 | IQI Project Centre, 2026 |
Sale and rent figures are asking prices from four sale listings on iProperty and three rental listings on PropertyGuru seen in October 2026, not recorded sales; no transacted median was found. 3+1-bedroom units of 1,600–1,690 sq ft were listed at about RM950,000–958,000 and penthouses of 2,737–2,876 sq ft at RM1.5–1.9 million. Ask Jason for recorded sale prices before you offer.

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 1,056 to 2,786 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.
- ⚠️ Leasehold title. Check how many years remain on the lease; banks lend less, and buyers pay less, as the lease gets shorter.
- ⚠️ 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 RM1,500,000, around the typical asking price here. Your figures will differ with the price and the bank.

| Down payment | RM150,000 | RM450,000 |
| Loan amount | RM1,350,000 | RM1,050,000 |
| Stamp duty on transfer (MOT) | RM44,000 | RM120,000 |
| Stamp duty on loan (0.5%) | RM6,750 | RM5,250 |
| Lawyer, sale agreement (incl. 8% SST) | RM17,550 | RM17,550 |
| Lawyer, loan agreement (incl. 8% SST) | RM15,930 | RM12,690 |

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.
