Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at KSL Residences 2
A recently finished KSL block with a busy rental market. Here is the case, and the catch.
Recently completed
EdgeProp records completion in August 2024, so the building and its facilities are among the newest in the Tebrau area.
Very active rental market
In October 2026 PropertyGuru showed 207 units for rent against 35 for sale, with asking rents of about RM1,000 to RM2,500 a month.
Tebrau retail on the doorstep
PropertyGuru places AEON Tebrau City in the adjacent area, with Austin Hills and Ponderosa golf clubs and Hospital Sultan Ismail nearby.
What to weigh: rental competition and unclear records
With hundreds of units listed for rent, landlords compete hard on price, and portals disagree on tenure, block count and total units. Check the title and the strata details 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 median, last 48 months | RM482 psf · typical RM453–510 psf | EdgeProp, viewed Oct 2026 |
| Asking price for sale, all sizes | About RM184,000–550,000 | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent whole units | About RM1,000–2,500 a month | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
The transacted row is EdgeProp’s median of recorded sales over 48 months; EdgeProp puts the implied gross yield at about 7.1% and does not state the number of sales. A second EdgeProp entry for the same development shows a median of RM491 psf. Sale and rent rows 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 463 to 883 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.
- ⚠️ 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.

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.
