Zac’s own rating, not user reviews.

Looking at the wider area too? My George Town 2026 buyer's guide compares every building nearby.

Noordinz Suites is already sold out. Exsim reported all 603 units taken, so the only way in now is to buy from an original purchaser before the building completes in 2027. That changes what the review is for: not "should I book a unit?" but "is this resale unit worth the seller's price?"

Key takeaways:

  • 603 freehold units in one 29-storey tower on 1.91 acres, at Gat Lebuh Noordin and Pengkalan Weld near Komtar.
  • Two layouts only: 377 sq ft studios and 603 sq ft dual-keys.
  • Sold at about RM626,500–956,300; reported 100% sold; due Q3 2027.
  • Every unit sits below the RM1M foreign minimum: a Malaysian, PR and MM2H market.

What you're buying

Exsim kept it simple: studios of 377 sq ft and dual-keys of 603 sq ft. A dual-key is two lettable spaces in one title, each with its own entrance, so one unit can earn two rents. Nothing here is designed for a family; it's a George Town rental product near Komtar, the heritage core and the waterfront.

The location is the strength. Komtar is about 1.2 km away (2 minutes at free-flow), Gurney Plaza about 5 km and the airport about 15 km.

Buying a resale before completion

A seller of an uncompleted unit is selling their SPA position. Ask for:

  • The original SPA price and the progress payments already made.
  • The developer's consent and transfer fee for the sale.
  • Whether any early-bird rebates have to be repaid on resale.
  • The expected service charge and what the developer has said about the handover date.

Then compare the asking price with what the original buyer paid. If the seller wants a premium, ask what you're getting for it, since there's no completed building to inspect yet.

The rental case

Run the numbers on a long-term let: realistic rent for a studio, or for both halves of a dual-key, minus the service charge, commercial-title utilities and assessment, a vacancy allowance and the loan cost. The service charge isn't published yet, so get the developer's figure before you rely on any projection.

Short-stay depends on the building's future management rules and a council licence under Penang's 2026 homestay by-law; serviced apartments are in the category that can apply, but the management body won't exist until after handover. More in what the homestay rules mean for owners.

How it compares

22 Macalisterz is Exsim's completed small-unit tower on Macalister Road, handed over in August 2025, which you can inspect today. G'Vinton on Northam Road is another off-plan option.

Zac’s Take

Zac Ong

Noordinz is a well-located rental product near Komtar, but it's sold out, so you're really judging the seller's price. Check what they paid, what the transfer costs, and whether a premium is justified without a finished building to see. If you'd rather inspect before you buy, Exsim's completed 22 Macalisterz is the comparison to walk first.

Average response: under 1 hour, 9am–7pm Mon–Sat.
