What the numbers mean
For buyers, the entry point in Petaling Jaya is a stratified factory at a median RM350,000, while a terrace factory has a median of RM1.59 million. Larger detached and semi-detached units run to median RM5.98 million and RM8.6 million, with built-up rates of RM1,598 psf and RM1,012 psf. Built-up psf here is RM488 psf against RM638 psf in Petaling District, 24% lower, though the tenure gap of RM581 psf freehold against RM479 psf leasehold mixes location and type, not tenure alone.
Renting is the other route. Across 55 recorded tenancies the median rent is RM2.10 psf/month on a typical 24 month term, which is 7% higher than Petaling District at RM1.97 psf/month. Terrace factory rent is RM2.00 psf/month, detached RM2.60 psf/month and stratified RM2.20 psf/month. These are the registered deals available so far, not every unit sold or rented.

How these figures are calculated
Download this page's aggregate data (CSV)
- Source: industrial property transfers registered with JPPH (Jabatan Penilaian dan Perkhidmatan Harta), the government valuation department. Industrial buildings plus vacant industrial lots and land approved for industrial development.
- Coverage: January 2021 to July 2026. The 12-month window is August 2025 to July 2026. The 24-month window is used for the breakdown tables so each figure has enough deals.
- A transfer lodged on several titles at one price is counted once, with the areas added up. Nominal transfers under RM150,000 and implausible prices per sq ft are removed before any median is calculated.
- Figures are medians, with the typical range shown as the 25th to 75th percentile. A median is only published from 5 deals or more; an industrial park is only listed from 3 deals.
- Only totals and medians are published. No individual transaction, owner name, lot or street number appears on this page.
- Built-up area is missing on most 2021 and 2022 records, so built-up psf starts from 2023; deal counts, values and land psf cover every year.
- Recalculated weekly as new transfers are registered.
