Dated market evidence

Current Market Snapshot

At about RM190.57 psf on land, the RM628,888 subject is close to current September 2026 asking evidence for similar Taman Markisah bungalows. A separate 4,120 sqft bungalow was asking RM480,000, while another same-price listing had about 3,239 sqft land. Renovation, plot shape and condition therefore matter more than total price alone.

The subject is not the cheapest visible option on land PSF. Its renovation and extension should therefore be inspected carefully to assess whether the premium is justified.
