Residential rentals in Malaysia typically run a 1-year initial term with renewal at market rate, with the 2 + 1 + ½ formula upfront (2 months security, 1 month advance rent, ½ to 1 month utility deposit). Furnished units carry a 10–30% premium over unfurnished (KLCC and prime urban areas higher, suburban areas lower). Tenancy stamp duty (revised from January 2025) is calculated per RM250 of annual rent — RM1 for terms ≤1 year, RM3 for >1–3 years, RM5 for >3–5 years, RM7 for >5 years; minimum RM10 per copy. Always insist on a stamped agreement, as unstamped leases are not enforceable in court.
Each residential listing surfaces the monthly rent, built-up area, bedroom and bathroom count, parking allocation, furnishing status, and the listing agent's direct contact. Filter by city or property subtype to find a fit, and reach out directly via the contact details on each card.

Residential rents move with location and access to LRT/MRT/highway, building age and facilities, unit size and layout, view and floor level, and furnishing status. Furnished units typically command a 10–30% premium over unfurnished, with KLCC and prime urban areas at the higher end and suburban townships closer to 10%. Always benchmark against directly comparable units within the same building or neighbourhood, not averaged statistics.
Typically required: IC/passport copy, employment letter, latest 3-month payslips, security deposit (2 months), utility deposit (0.5–1 month), advance rent (1 month), and stamped tenancy agreement.
Key rights: quiet enjoyment of property, timely repairs by landlord for structural issues, return of deposit (minus legitimate deductions), proper notice before eviction (typically matching notice period in agreement).
Standard tenancy is 1 year with an option to renew. 2-year leases are common for furnished units and expat tenants. Most landlords prefer minimum 1 year; short-term lets (under 6 months) often carry a 30–50% premium.
