5 things to check before signing the Skycube Residence SPA
- 1.Sinking fund health β Confirm the current balance and whether any special assessment is pending in the next 12 months. A thin sinking fund on an ageing building means you inherit the bill.
- 2.Last 3 maintenance billings β Verify payment is up to date and no dues are outstanding from the seller β arrears transfer with the unit, not the person.
- 3.JMC minutes (last 12 months) β Look for recurring complaints, structural concerns, or planned major works. This is the single most revealing document most buyers never ask for.
- 4.Common-area condition β Physically walk the pool deck, lifts, lobbies, gym and parking ramps. Photograph anything concerning β it is negotiation leverage.
- 5.Management track record β Ask who manages the building and how long they have held the contract. Frequent turnover of managing agents usually signals a difficult JMB.
Skycube Residence price 2026
What Skycube Residence trades at on the sub-sale market, last checked 2026-07-30.
| Asking from | RM519,000 β RM1.88M |

| Built-up | 1,100 β 2,952 sqft |
| Completed | 2016 |

Verified sub-sale asking prices. Asking is not transacted β expect movement between the two.
The building is 10 years old. Old enough that the sinking fund and the state of common property matter more than the finishes. Ask for the MC accounts and the last AGM minutes β arrears across the building are the number that predicts your future maintenance bill.
A foreign buyer can purchase here β 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 3β4 months for state consent.
Selling rather than buying? The RPGT rates and the 21B retention decide what you keep β and if you are near the five-to-six-year line, the date matters more than the price.
