But in Malaysia, Selangor is leaving Kuala Lumpur in the shade as it surges ahead with residential demand.<\/p>\n<p>The residential sector as a whole was the best-performing market last year in Malaysia and is shaping up for another good year in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, it contributed to nearly 63 percent of total sales, which amounted to 250,586 transactions worth MYR100.93 billion (USD21.3 billion), a year-on-year increase of three and 7.1 percent, respectively, according to Knight Frank\u2019s executive director of research Amy Wong.<\/p>\n<p>Selangor led the market with 22 percent of those transactions and 30% of the value. The state has seen a flurry of new launches of townships in recent years while Kuala Lumpur has not, Wong related.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>During the pandemic, many developers were not building new units and they kept selling the existing stocks to meet cashflow demand.

Described as a beacon of wellness by the developer, the project consists of 90 kilometres of jogging and cycling tracks and is set among thousands of acres of forest reserve.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38442\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38442\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38442\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2288016817.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2288016817.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2288016817-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2288016817-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2288016817-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38442\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kuala Lumpur&#8217;s residential market has been overshadowed by the performance of secondary destinations in Malaysia.

As a result, the demand for residential units is starting to increase more than supply,\u201d says Ezumi Harzani, former president of the Malaysian Institute of Architects.<\/p>\n<p>In Selangor, the state has seen rapid growth in manufacturing following the implementation of the government\u2019s First Selangor Plan 2021-2025.<\/p>\n<p>The plan, which was devised after the state was among several to be ravaged by flooding in 2021, aims to revive the economy with affordable housing and better access to finance.<\/p>\n<p>In the first half of last year, the state recorded MYR14.75 billion investment in the manufacturing sector, higher than the MYR5.13 billion achieved over the same period last year, according to Knight Frank data.<\/p>\n<p>Wong says that with the plan in place, Selangor \u201cis poised to become a magnet for industrial development, offering a conducive environment for businesses to thrive.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38444\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38444\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_1179100084.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_1179100084.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_1179100084-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_1179100084-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_1179100084-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38444\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Secondary destinations around the country like Sarawak are becoming hubs for new real estate developments. BaniHasyim\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Selangor\u2019s rising star comes as another second-tier state, Johor, also performs well.<\/p>\n<p>Johor was the second-best performing state for residential real estate transactions and value last year, accounting for 16.2 and 18 percent of the total, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>By contrast, Kuala Lumpur performed with slightly more mixed results. Despite some encouraging data towards the end of the year, the city has been battered by high inflation and relatively high borrowing costs.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 9,938 residential units worth MYR8.3 billion were sold in the first three quarters of 2023. Though sales volume rose slightly by 1.2 percent, the sales value was lower by 7.2 percent on the year.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the reason for the disparity between Kuala Lumpur and second-tier cities is also down to their ability to tackle residential overhang and affordability.<\/p>\n<p>In the third quarter of last year, the average house price stood at MYR458,751, according to Mohd Afzanizam Abdul Rashid, chief economist at Bank Muamalat Malaysia Berhad.<\/p>\n<p>Kuala Lumpur\u2019s average house price was a massive MYR770,543. Given a potential homebuyer can only afford to purchase a house costing MYR368,424, Kuala Lumpur remains within the budget of the wealthiest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs for Selangor, the average house price is MYR520,456 but affordable housing should be priced at only MYR359,388. The average house price in Sarawak is MYR504,542 but is only affordable if priced at MYR179,208,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38446\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38446\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38446\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2282614573.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2282614573.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2282614573-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2282614573-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/shutterstock_2282614573-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38446\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Johor was the second-best performing state for residential real estate transactions and value last year, accounting for 16.2 and 18 percent of the total, respectively.
