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.

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.

  • ⚠️ A newer project, so many owners are renting out at the same time. Expect competition for tenants for the first few years.
  • ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. Compare any offer with the recorded transacted price per sq ft above before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

How many units are there and what sizes?

There are 598 units on 39 storeys, according to PropertyGuru, iProperty and EdgeProp. PropertyGuru gives built-ups of about 400 to 1,145 sq ft, from studios to three-bedroom units; some listings quote larger sizes, so check the title.

Is SKS Pavillion Residences freehold?

Yes. PropertyGuru and iProperty record freehold tenure.

Can a foreigner buy here?

In Johor a foreign buyer generally needs a purchase price of RM1 million or more per residential property, must obtain state consent from the Johor Land and Mines Office, and cannot buy Bumiputera lots, low-cost or affordable units, Malay Reserve land or single or one-and-a-half-storey terraces. 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). PropertyGuru asking prices in October 2026 ran from about RM390,000 to RM1.08 million, almost all below RM1 million, so only a rare unit priced at RM1 million or more could qualify, and only if it is not on a Bumiputera lot.

PropertyGuru and iProperty rent listings in October 2026 started from about RM750 to RM800 a month, with whole larger units asking more.

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.
