Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at Seasons Amara Larkin

A large, well-let block at a modest entry price. Here is the case, and the catch.

🏠

Modest entry price

iProperty sale listings in October 2026 started from about RM299,000, with most units under RM660,000.

🔑

Plenty of tenants and listings

iProperty showed 55 whole-unit rental listings in October 2026, asking about RM1,600 to RM2,580 a month.

🚌

Larkin transport hub nearby

iProperty notes Larkin Sentral bus terminal close by and a 10–15 minute drive to the city centre.

⚖️

What to weigh: supply and tenure

With 973 units and many listings at once, resale and rental competition is high, and the land is leasehold. Compare like-for-like units and check the remaining lease.

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.

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 685 to 1,286 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.
  • ⚠️ Leasehold title. Check how many years remain on the lease; banks lend less, and buyers pay less, as the lease gets shorter.
  • ⚠️ 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
