Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Topaz Residenz
One of the newer gated terrace schemes in Seri Alam. Here is the case, and the catch.
Newer, larger terraces
Both layouts are over 2,150 sq ft with 4+1 bedrooms and five bathrooms, on lots of 24 × 70 ft or 24 × 75 ft.
Gated and guarded
PropertyGuru describes a gated and guarded community with a children’s playground.
Highway links
The Iskandarian notes access via the Southern Link and the Eastern Dispersal Link.
What to weigh: very few listings
PropertyGuru showed just two homes for sale and one for rent in October 2026, so prices are hard to benchmark. Ask for recorded transactions 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Launch price Section 2, October 2020 | RM744,800–752,800 | The Iskandarian |
| Asking price for sale | From about RM899,000 · RM418–436 psf | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent whole homes | From about RM2,300 a month | PropertyGuru building page, Oct 2026 |
The launch row is the developer’s price reported by The Iskandarian in October 2020. Sale and rent rows are asking prices on PropertyGuru in October 2026 (two for sale, one for rent), not transactions. No recorded transaction median was found.

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 2,152 to 2,177 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.
- ⚠️ Landed homes: check the land title, the facing, and whether the house has had extensions that need approved plans.
- ⚠️ 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

| Down payment | RM75,000 | RM225,000 |
| Loan amount | RM675,000 | RM525,000 |
| Stamp duty on transfer (MOT) | RM16,500 | RM60,000 |

| Lawyer, sale agreement (incl. 8% SST) | RM9,450 | RM9,450 |

Frequently asked questions
How many homes are there and what sizes?
There are 258 double-storey terraces: 108 in Section 1 and 150 in Section 2. Both sections use two layouts, Type A of 2,152 sq ft and Type B of 2,177 sq ft, each with 4+1 bedrooms and five bathrooms.
Is Topaz Residenz freehold?
Yes. PropertyGuru records freehold tenure.
Can a foreigner buy here?
In Johor a foreign buyer generally needs to pay at least RM1 million per residential property, with state consent. Since 1 July 2025 Johor charges foreign buyers a consent levy of 3% of the price or RM30,000, whichever is higher, and stamp duty on transfers to foreigners is a flat 8% from 1 January 2026. Bumiputera lots, low-cost and affordable units, Malay Reserve land and single or one-and-a-half-storey terraces are closed to foreigners. PropertyGuru asking prices at Topaz Residenz start around RM899,000 at RM418–436 psf, which puts even the larger layout just under RM1 million, so foreign buyers are generally not eligible here.

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.
