Current Asking & Listing Status

Reference profile: freehold condominium · Type B corner · 3R2B · 2 car parks · fully renovated · fully furnished.
Own-Stay / Renovation-Saving Buyer
The strongest fit is for families or professionals who want a larger mainland condominium without needing to start a full renovation and furnishing project. The corner position and 1,370 sqft floorplate improve own-stay appeal, but the asking premium should be compared carefully with other 1,370 sqft units.
Current Market Snapshot
The latest public market check shows a wide asking-price spread at The Navens. The RM630,000 subject price equals approximately RM459.85 psf and is above the recent visible asking evidence for standard 1,370 sqft units. The subject's corner position, renovation and furnishing may justify part of that premium, but direct recent same-project registered transaction evidence is not publicly available in the sources reviewed.
- Subject askingRM630,000
- Subject asking rate≈ RM459.85 psf
- Recent 1,370 sqft visible asking examples≈ RM428,000 – RM570,000
- Examples reviewedRM428k · RM470k · RM520k · RM570k
- Project 3-bedroom average asking reference≈ RM549k · RM376 psf
The RM630k reference is above the recent visible range and the current project average asking reference. A premium therefore needs to be assessed against corner position, exact floor, view, renovation quality and the furniture / appliances included.
- Recent same-project public sampleNo reliable sample found

- Project statusCompleted 2020 · Freehold
Because a reliable recent same-project registered transaction sample is not available publicly, this page does not fabricate a transaction median. Bank valuation, valuation reports and like-for-like historical SPA evidence should be used before deciding whether the RM630k asking premium is justified.
- Project whole-unit asking references≈ RM1,650 – RM2,500 / month
- 1,370 sqft fully furnished corner reference≈ RM1,800 / month
- Indicative gross asking yield on RM630k≈ 3.14% – 4.76% p.a.
- At RM1,800/month≈ 3.43% p.a.
These are advertised rents rather than signed tenancy evidence. Furnishing level, floor, view, tenant profile, maintenance, vacancy and management costs affect the actual net return.
How to read RM630k
The asking price sits above the visible market for standard 1,370 sqft units. Buyers should therefore price the unit as a corner + renovation + furnishing package, not merely as a generic Type B. The key question is whether the renovation condition and furniture package are worth the gap versus buying a RM470k–RM570k alternative and renovating it separately.

Investment Analysis

The Navens Decision Summary
What This Listing Is
A completed / subsale freehold Type B corner condominium at The Navens with 1,370 sqft, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 car parks, full renovation and full furnishing at a reference asking price of RM630,000.
Current Market Position
The asking works out to about RM460 psf. Recent visible 1,370 sqft asks reviewed are roughly RM428k–RM570k, so the subject is positioned at a premium and should be judged on its corner position, exact floor, renovation, furniture package and condition.
Strengths & Trade-offs
Strengths are spacious 1,370 sqft living, corner positioning, 2 car parks, full renovation / furnishing, freehold tenure and mature Machang Bubok / Alma amenities. The main trade-off is the higher entry price relative to standard 1,370 sqft asking evidence.
Best-Fit Buyer
Best suited to an own-stay family or professional household that values move-in readiness and is willing to pay more to avoid renovation work. Pure yield investors should compare the premium carefully against lower-priced units because current asking rents do not automatically rise in proportion to the purchase price.
