Zac’s Take
Zac Ong
Phoenix Residences is a small freehold development of 34 homes, completed in 2019, with prices from about RM1.12M, around RM600 per sq ft. I haven't been able to confirm the sizes or facilities, and I'd rather say so than guess. Taman Iping in Batu Maung puts you near the airport and the southern bridge, a different positioning from the Batu Ferringhi beach cluster or the Balik Pulau rural belt covered elsewhere on this site — this is a commuter and industrial-proximity location. At RM600 psf, it's priced on par with some of the pricier Batu Maung-adjacent stock. If it's on your shortlist, ask me to confirm the sizes and facilities before you go further.

Immediate occupancy
Move in within months, not years. Most resales complete in four to six months, a little longer if you need state consent as a foreign buyer.
Verified surroundings
Batu Maung's noise levels, traffic, neighbour mix, and JMC quality are known quantities at Phoenix Residences.
Established maintenance
The building has a track record. Ask for the management accounts, sinking fund balance and recent meeting minutes before you commit.
Due diligence before buying at Phoenix Residences
- 1.Individual title status — Confirm whether individual title has issued and is in the seller's name. Master-title landed transactions carry extra steps and time.
- 2.Approved extensions — Most landed resales have some extension. Ask for the approved plan — unapproved structures can be an issue at your own resale or refinancing.
- 3.Drainage and ground level — Walk the perimeter and ask neighbours directly about flooding history. Penang's heavy-rain events are the honest test, not a dry-day viewing.
- 4.Gated scheme fees and rules — For gated-and-guarded schemes, confirm the monthly fee, what it covers, and the collection rate. Poor collection means declining security cover.
- 5.Roof, structure and termites — Commission an inspection for anything over fifteen years old. Roof and termite remediation are the two costs that most often blow a landed budget.

Developer launch price. This is what the developer charged at launch, not what the building trades at today. Treat it as a floor for negotiation, not a guide to current value.
Recent prices. Launch price. No current listings found in October 2026; ask for recent transactions.
The building is 7 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.
Every unit here sits below the RM3M foreign-buyer minimum, so this building is open to Malaysian and PR buyers only.
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.

Phoenix Residences subsale — common questions
What is the price of Phoenix Residences?
Launch price. No current listings found in October 2026; ask for recent transactions.
Is Phoenix Residences freehold or leasehold?
Phoenix Residences is freehold. I have not been able to confirm the land title class — check it with the developer, because a commercial title changes your utility tariffs and loan margin.
Can a foreigner buy at Phoenix Residences?
Yes, if you are on MM2H. MM2H participants can buy residential property in Penang from RM500,000 (up to two homes), and Phoenix Residences is priced above that. Other foreign buyers need RM3,000,000 for landed property on the island, which homes here do not reach. Add the state levy, a flat 8% stamp duty, and 3–4 months for state consent.
When was Phoenix Residences completed?
Phoenix Residences was completed in 2019 by PLB Engineering Bhd, so homes here are bought from existing owners.
How many homes are there at Phoenix Residences?
34 in total.
