Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Taman Matang Jaya
A straightforward freehold terrace scheme near Taiping. Here is the case, and the catch.
One straightforward layout
Every house is a 20′ × 70′ double-storey terrace with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Shops on foot
The developer says minimarkets are within a five-minute walk, with restaurants, sundry, pet and optical shops in the township.
Freehold
The land is freehold, at developer list prices of RM348,800 to RM408,800.
What to weigh: limited listing data
The listing gives no facilities, distances or security details, and the list price is not today’s value. Freehold also rules out foreign buyers in Perak.

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 rent double-storey terrace, unfurnished | RM1,300 a month (one listing) | PropertyGuru listing, Sep 2026 |
| Developer list price (launch) on the IQI listing | RM348,800 – RM408,800 | IQI Project Centre, 2026 |
The rent is an asking figure from a single unfurnished intermediate house listed on PropertyGuru in September 2026, not an agreed rent. The other row is the developer’s list price on IQI. No transacted records or resale asking prices were found in October 2026; ask Jason for recorded subsale 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
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.
- ⚠️ Landed homes: check the land title, the facing, and whether the house has had extensions that need approved plans.
- ⚠️ 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.
