Before you sign at City of Dreams — the commercial-title checks

  1. 1.Utility tariff in practiceCommercial title usually means commercial TNB and water rates. Ask current owners what they actually pay monthly, not what the brochure implies.
  2. 2.Financing marginSome banks cap loan-to-value lower on commercial-title residential units. Get an in-principle approval before you pay a booking fee.
  3. 3.Short-stay house rulesServiced-apartment does not automatically mean Airbnb is allowed. Read the current house rules — management can and does restrict short-stay letting.
  4. 4.Resale buyer poolCommercial title narrows who can buy from you later. Make sure the entry price reflects that, not just the location.
  5. 5.Maintenance rate per sq ftCompare the psf maintenance charge against nearby residential-title blocks. On big units the annual gap is meaningful.

Verified sub-sale asking prices. Asking is not transacted — expect movement between the two.

The building is 6 years old. Still young. The defects liability period has long expired, so anything outstanding is now the management corporation’s problem and, through the sinking fund, partly yours. Check what was actually rectified.

A foreign buyer can purchase here — the RM1M minimum is cleared by the larger units, though not at the entry price. Add the state levy, a flat 8% stamp duty and 3–4 months for state consent.

Selling rather than buying? The RPGT rates and the 21B retention decide what you keep — and if you are near the five-to-six-year line, the date matters more than the price.

City of Dreams subsale — common questions

What is the price of City of Dreams?

City of Dreams runs RM700,000 to RM2,300,000. These are verified sub-sale asking prices, not transacted figures — expect movement between the two. That works out to about RM964–1,723 per square foot. Checked 2026-08-06.

Is City of Dreams freehold or leasehold?

City of Dreams is freehold, on a commercial title, sold under the Housing Development Act. Those are two separate facts and only the first usually appears in marketing. A commercial title means commercial utility and assessment tariffs, and a tighter loan margin at most banks.

Can a foreigner buy at City of Dreams?

Yes, on the larger units. Penang Island sets a RM1,000,000 minimum for foreign buyers, which the entry price does not clear. Add a state levy, a flat 8% stamp duty, and 3–4 months for state consent.

When was City of Dreams completed?

City of Dreams completed in 2020, developed by Ewein Zenith Sdn. Bhd.. Units here trade sub-sale.

How big are the units at City of Dreams?

Built-ups run 670 to 2,370 sq ft. There are 572 units in total.

What does commercial-HDA title mean for buyers?

The project sits on commercial land but was sold under the Housing Development Act, so buyers get HDA protections. Utilities may be billed at commercial rates — ask Zac for the practical cost difference.
