Foreign buyers
Some units
Asking prices start around RM690,000, so mid-size and larger units priced at RM1 million or more could qualify
Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Molek Pine 4
Large freehold homes in a green-rated tower. Here is the case, and the catch.
Green-rated building
The Edge reported in 2013 that Molek Pine 4 was the second residential project in Malaysia to reach a GBI Platinum rating, with solar panels, rainwater harvesting and a naturally ventilated car park.
Big layouts, low density
The smallest unit is 1,441 sq ft and PropertyGuru records about 8 units a floor and two parking bays per unit, which suits families upsizing from terraces.
Unusual clubhouse
The developer lists a Japanese onsen-style spa in the clubhouse, alongside a pool, tennis, basketball and badminton courts and a gym.
What to weigh: big-ticket resale
Asking prices run from about RM690,000 to RM4.8 million, and EdgeProp’s 48-month median is RM488 psf. Large units take longer to resell and rent, so check transacted figures for your size 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 | RM488 psf · typical RM449–500 psf | EdgeProp, viewed Oct 2026 |
| Launch price at launch (2013) | RM944,000 to RM4.77m | The Edge Malaysia |
| Asking price for sale, all sizes | About RM690,000–4.78m · RM427–619 psf | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent whole units | From about RM4,000 a month | PropertyGuru and iProperty, Oct 2026 |
The transacted row is EdgeProp’s median of recorded sales over 48 months; EdgeProp puts the implied gross yield at about 6.5% and does not state the number of sales. Sale and rent rows are asking prices seen in October 2026 (PropertyGuru showed 41 units for sale and 12 for rent), 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 1,441 to 6,042 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.
- ⚠️ 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.
- ⚠️ 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.
