Development is severely outpacing infrastructure


Malaysia’s property sector is defined by its hard-earned resilience, consistently rebounding from periods of volatility to maintain a trajectory of robust growth. Across the Klang Valley, Penang, Johor, Sarawak and several other states, cranes are now a constant part of the view.

New residential projects, commercial spaces, industrial parks and large townships continue to enter the market. Property remains a key economic driver. In 2025, Malaysia recorded more than RM64.39bil in property transactions, according to official data, reflecting sustained activity despite global uncertainty.
