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 635 to 1,054 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 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.
  • ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. Compare any offer with the recorded transacted price per sq ft above before you commit.

The real cost

Is Stutong Heights Apartment 1 freehold?

Can a foreigner buy a unit here?

Sarawak uses its own Sarawak Land Code, not the National Land Code. Foreigners may buy individual strata units, and law firms citing the 2019 Direction say strata units carry no Sarawak minimum price; the RM600,000 floor in Kuching Division applies to landed homes, though some guides quote it for strata too, so confirm with your lawyer. You need approval from the Land and Survey Department first, must buy in your own name, and units on Native Area Land or set aside for Bumiputera buyers are excluded. Stamp duty on the transfer of a home is 8% for foreign buyers from 1 January 2026. Some units here are Bumiputera lots, which foreigners cannot buy.

How much does it rent for?

Mudah.my listings show about RM1,200 to RM1,500 a month in October 2026; PropertyGuru gives rents from RM1,900.
