Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at Geo38 Residence

A freehold highland tower with larger layouts than most. Here is the case, and the catch.

🚡

Close to the Skyway

The Awana Skyway cable car is about 5 minutes by car and Resorts World Genting about 20 minutes.

📐

Real family sizes

Even the smallest layout is 642 sq ft, and 2- and 3-bedroom types run to 1,812 and 3,038 sq ft.

🏫

Next to a boarding school

Highlands International Boarding School is about 350 metres away on foot.

⚖️

What to weigh: a softening price trend

PropertyGuru’s asking-price data shows average psf down about 11% from 2023 to 2025, and EdgeProp shows no recorded sales to check against.

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 642 to 3,038 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.

  • ⚠️ A newer project, so many owners are renting out at the same time. Expect competition for tenants for the first few years.
  • ⚠️ 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 RM1,870,000, around the typical asking price here. Your figures will differ with the price and the bank.

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.
