Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Zennith Suites
A low entry price close to Larkin and the city. Here is the case, and the catch.
Low entry price
PropertyGuru and iProperty asking prices in October 2026 started at about RM230,000 for a studio.
Near Larkin Sentral
HAO Property puts the block about 2.9 km from the Larkin Sentral bus terminal, and Mudah listings put the Causeway checkpoint 5 to 7 minutes away by car.
Full facilities for its size
PropertyGuru lists a pool, jacuzzi, sauna, gym, BBQ area, jogging track and a rooftop garden.
What to weigh: an older, studio-heavy block
Most rental listings on Mudah are studios, so expect competition for tenants of small units. No recorded transaction median was available to us; check recent sales 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Asking price for sale, all sizes | About RM230,000–370,000 | PropertyGuru and iProperty, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent 26 listings, mostly studios | About RM1,300–1,700 a month | Mudah, Oct 2026 |
| Asking rent larger units | Up to about RM2,100 a month | EdgeProp listing, Oct 2026 |
No recorded transaction median could be read for this block in October 2026. All rows are asking prices seen on PropertyGuru, iProperty, Mudah and EdgeProp in October 2026, not transactions; the low end is a 430 sq ft studio and the top end a 980 sq ft 3-bedroom unit.

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.
- ⚠️ 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.
- ⚠️ Leasehold title. Check how many years remain on the lease; banks lend less, and buyers pay less, as the lease gets shorter.
- ⚠️ 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

| Stamp duty on transfer (MOT) | RM6,400 | RM29,600 |

Frequently asked questions
How many units are there and what sizes?
PropertyGuru describes one 27-storey block of 303 units in eight designs, from about 425 sq ft studios to 1,632 sq ft layouts. PropertyGuru and iProperty also hold a second record of 299 units, so records differ.
Is Zennith Suites freehold?
No. PropertyGuru and iProperty record leasehold tenure, and one PropertyGuru listing gives the lease as running to 2109.
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 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). Asking prices seen in October 2026 ran from about RM230,000 to RM370,000, so no units currently meet the RM1 million line.

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.
