Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at Imperio Residence

A small-unit address on the Melaka Raya side of the old town. Here is the case, and the catch.

🏛️

Close to the heritage core

The developer points to Jonker Street, A’Famosa and the Melaka River cruise nearby, and PropertyGenie puts Bandar Hilir about ten minutes away by car.

🔑

A low entry price

Studios of about 435–466 sq ft were listed for sale from about RM135,000 to RM300,000 in October 2026, and rented for about RM1,000–1,300 a month.

🏥

A mall turning medical

Hatten says Imperio Mall below is being turned into a healthcare destination, with Quantum Specialist Centre taking more than 180,000 sq ft over three floors.

⚖️

What to weigh: a deep pool of studios

With 949 units, about 20 for sale and close to 30 for rent on PropertyGuru in October 2026, buyers have plenty of choice. EdgeProp shows no recorded sales, and asking prices range from about RM274 to RM856 psf, so compare several units before you offer.

The recorded numbers

The price numbers

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.

The developer price is Hatten’s own list price for its remaining units (PropertyGenie’s project page shows older figures of RM338,000–658,860, about RM777–784 psf); the sale and rent figures are asking prices seen on PropertyGuru in October 2026, not transactions.

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 435 to 1,271 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.
  • ⚠️ 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.
  • ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. Compare any offer with the recorded transacted price per sq ft above before you commit.

The real cost

Frequently asked questions

How many units are there and what sizes?

949 units in two blocks. PropertyGuru lists studios of 435–466 sq ft, suites of 607–876 sq ft including dual-key units, and Grand Sky Suites of about 1,271–1,279 sq ft.

Is Imperio Residence freehold?

No. PropertyGuru, iProperty and PropertyGenie all give leasehold tenure; the lease expiry is not published, so check the title.

Can a foreigner buy here?

In Melaka a foreigner can generally buy a strata home priced above RM500,000 (RM1 million for a landed home), with State Authority consent through the Melaka Land and Mines Office (PTG Melaka). The state charges a RM5,000 processing fee and an approval fee of 3% of the price (at least RM30,000), the unit cannot be transferred or leased for five years, foreign ownership of a project is capped by quota, and foreign ownership is not allowed in Melaka’s heritage zone. Stamp duty on the transfer of a home is a flat 8% for foreign buyers from 1 January 2026. Most asking prices here are below RM500,000, so most units are not open to foreign buyers; only the larger suites listed above that level could qualify, subject to the heritage-zone check. The developer’s remaining units are listed from RM503,700.

How much does a unit rent for?

Studios were listed at about RM1,000 to RM1,300 a month on PropertyGuru in October 2026, with most at RM1,100 to RM1,200.

Berapa harga Imperio Residence?

Harga tawaran di PropertyGuru pada Oktober 2026 ialah sekitar RM120,000 hingga RM750,000; kebanyakan studio sekitar RM135,000 hingga RM300,000. EdgeProp tidak menunjukkan rekod transaksi. Hartanah ini pajakan dan siap pada 2018.

Imperio Residence 价格多少?租金多少?

根据PropertyGuru 2026年10月挂牌,单位售价约RM12万至RM75万,开放式单位多在RM13.5万至RM30万;开放式单位月租约RM1,000至RM1,300。EdgeProp暂无成交记录。租约地契,2018年完工。

Which schools are near Imperio Residence?

On map data, the nearest schools are Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Canossa Convent (M) (~700 m), Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Cina) Pay Fong 2 (~1.0 km), Sekolah Kebangsaan Convent Infant Jesus (~1.0 km). Distances are straight-line from the building.

Is there a train or bus station near Imperio Residence?

Map data shows no train or bus station within about 4 km, so most residents drive or use e-hailing.

What is the nearest hospital and mall to Imperio Residence?

The nearest hospital on map data is Mahkota Medical Centre (~1.3 km), and the nearest mall is Elements Mall (~200 m).

How much cash do I need to buy at Imperio Residence?

For a unit at RM650,000,, a Malaysian buyer with a 90% loan needs about RM6,143 before getting the keys, covering the down payment, stamp duty and legal fees. A foreign buyer with a 70% loan needs about RM97,463, before the state consent fee. The full table is in "What buying here costs in 2026".

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.
