The Straits Quay Suites @ Waterside pre-purchase checklist

  1. 1.Remaining lease (if leasehold) β€” Ask for the exact expiry year. Banks tighten lending as the remaining term shortens, which affects both your loan and your future buyer's.
  2. 2.Outstanding charges and caveats β€” Your lawyer should run a full land search for caveats, charges or restrictions in interest before you release any deposit.
  3. 3.Genuine transacted comparables β€” Ask for recent transacted prices in the same block, not asking prices. Asking prices tell you what sellers hope for, not what the market pays.
  4. 4.Exit tax position β€” Model your RPGT before you buy, not when you sell. Holding period changes the maths substantially, especially for foreign owners.
  5. 5.Vacant possession terms β€” Agree in writing what stays β€” air-conditioners, built-ins, curtains, lights. Fixture disputes at handover are entirely avoidable.

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

The building is 16 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 3–4 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.
