Jason’s take

Two blocks on 18 acres with a lake, every layout 3 to 5 bedrooms, and schools within walking distance. A family buy. Block A is over 25 years old, so check the lifts, pipes and sinking fund 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

Layouts here run from about 1,002 to 1,335 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.

  • ⚠️ An older building (completed 2000). Check the lifts, plumbing, sinking fund balance and any repairs the management has planned.
  • ⚠️ 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.

The real cost

What buying here costs in 2026

What unit sizes are there at Permas Ville?

Is Permas Ville freehold?

Yes. StarProperty and PropertyGuru record freehold tenure.

Can a foreigner buy here?

In Johor a foreign buyer generally needs a purchase price of RM1 million or more (the state minimum can vary by area and property type), must obtain state consent from the Johor Land and Mines Office, and cannot buy units on Bumiputera lots. Stamp duty on the transfer of a home is a flat 8% for foreign buyers from 1 January 2026. Johor also charges foreign buyers a consent levy of 3% of the price or RM30,000, whichever is higher (since 1 July 2025). Asking prices at Permas Ville are about RM330,000 to RM498,000, so units are generally below the threshold and not open to foreign buyers.

How much does a unit rent for?

PropertyGuru shows asking rents of about RM1,100 to RM2,300 a month for whole units in October 2026.

How much cash do I need to buy at Permas Ville?

For a unit at RM380,000,, a Malaysian buyer with a 90% loan needs about RM3,591 before getting the keys, covering the down payment, stamp duty and legal fees. A foreign buyer with a 70% loan needs about RM56,057, before the state consent fee. The full table is in "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.
