Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at Midhills

An affordable entry to Genting from a listed developer. Here is the case, and the catch.

💰

A low entry price

Studios are listed from about RM290,000, and PropertyGuru puts studio asking prices about 18% below the Genting Highlands average.

📜

Residential title

PropertyGuru records a residential title, unlike many Genting serviced apartments sold on commercial titles. Confirm it on the unit’s own title.

🛍️

Genting Permai location

PropertyGuru lists the Genting Highlands Premium Outlets, Gohtong Jaya and the Awana Skyway station as a short drive away.

⚖️

What to weigh: leasehold and a soft trend

Tenure is leasehold, and PropertyGuru’s asking-price data shows average psf down about 5% from 2023 to 2025. irumah.co gives a falling yield, from 5.2% in 2023 to 4.4% in 2025.

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 550 to 2,543 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.

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.
