Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Bayu Puteri 3
A large, established 3-bedroom apartment estate close to the city centre. Here is the case, and the catch.
Close to the Causeway
StarProperty puts the Singapore Causeway and the city centre about five minutes away, with access via the Inner Ring Road and Pasir Gudang Highway.
Family layouts at a mid-market price
Most units are 3-bedroom layouts of about 900 to 1,045 sq ft; PropertyGuru’s October 2026 figures put the average 3-bedroom asking price at about RM383,000.
A liquid subsale building
PropertyGuru showed 39 sale and 13 rental listings, and EdgeProp 60 sale listings, in October 2026, so buyers have plenty of units to compare.
What to weigh: leasehold and a 2006 building
The land is leasehold and the blocks are about 20 years old. Check the remaining lease, lift and facility condition, and the maintenance rate 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.
| Measure | Figure | Source and date |
|---|---|---|
| Transacted price this project | No Brickz, EdgeProp or NAPIC figures found | Checked Oct 2026 |
| Asking price for sale, 39 listings | Mostly about RM338,000–410,000 · 3-bed average about RM383,000 (RM387 psf) | PropertyGuru, Oct 2026 |
| Asking price trend average psf | About RM365 psf (2023) to RM426 psf (2025) | PropertyGuru Market Pulse, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent whole units | From about RM1,300–1,400 a month | StarProperty and PropertyGuru, Oct 2026 (13 rental listings) |
No recorded transaction figures for Bayu Puteri 3 were found on Brickz, EdgeProp or NAPIC. All rows are asking prices or portal estimates seen in October 2026, not transactions; a few listings ask much more (up to about RM888,000 for larger units), so compare like-for-like sizes.

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 (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.
- ⚠️ More than ten years old. Ask for the last AGM minutes and how much maintenance owners still owe; arrears show up as poor upkeep later.
- ⚠️ Leasehold title. Check how many years remain on the lease; banks lend less, and buyers pay less, as the lease gets shorter.
- ⚠️ 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.

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.
