Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Trellis Residences
Newly completed, compact freehold units in the city centre. Here is the case, and the catch.
Newly completed
The developer lists Trellis as completed in December 2025, so buildings and facilities are new.
Lower entry prices
About 80% of units were studios or 1-bedroom homes at launch, and iProperty asking prices in October 2026 started near RM320,000.
Large podium
The Edge reported about 10,713 sq m of podium facilities, including a pool, fitness club, basketball court and children’s zone.
What to weigh: many units for rent
Mudah showed about 175 rental listings in October 2026, so expect competition for tenants. No recorded transaction median is published yet; compare asking prices with launch prices of RM220,000 to RM623,000.

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 Apr 2021 launch | About RM220,000–623,000 | The Edge, March 2021 |
| Asking price for sale, 38 listings | About RM320,000–680,000 · RM681–1,103 psf | iProperty, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent 175 listings | About RM1,600–3,500 a month | Mudah, Oct 2026 |
No recorded transaction median was found for this newly completed project in October 2026. Sale and rent rows are asking prices seen on iProperty and Mudah in October 2026, not transactions; Mudah showed sale asks of about RM450,000 to RM638,000 at the same time.

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 295 to 1,001 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.

Frequently asked questions

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.
