Zac’s Take
Zac Ong
The Rimbun is a 664-unit townhouse development in Bukit Mertajam from RM400,000. Townhouses in BM at RM400K represent genuinely excellent space per ringgit — you're getting landed-style living (typically 3-storey, 1,500–2,500 sqft) at a price point where island condos would be sub-800 sqft. The 664-unit scale is township-grade. Rimbun means lush/leafy in Malay — suggesting green-themed landscaping. BM townhouses in this range are popular with young families who want space and privacy that flat living can't provide.
