Zac’s Take
Zac Ong
Vantage Desiran Tanjung isn't housing. It's a row of 120 shop offices by UDA on Jalan Desiran Tanjung in Tanjung Tokong, four storeys high and completed in 2013, with units of about 1,254 to 2,185 sq ft.
They launched at about RM480,000 to RM1.8M in 2011; in 2026 asking prices run from about RM1.1M to RM2.6M, and units let for roughly RM4,300 to RM8,000 a month, depending on floor and frontage.
It suits business owners who want their own premises near Straits Quay, or investors after a commercial tenant. It's leasehold, so check the remaining lease, and expect commercial rates on utilities and assessment.

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
Tanjung Tokong's noise levels, traffic, neighbour mix, and JMC quality are known quantities at Vantage Desiran Tanjung.
Established maintenance
The building has a track record. Ask for the management accounts, sinking fund balance and recent meeting minutes before you commit.
The Vantage Desiran Tanjung pre-purchase checklist
- 1.Remaining lease (if leasehold) — 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.Outstanding charges and caveats — Your lawyer should run a full land search for caveats, charges or restrictions in interest before you release any deposit.
- 3.Genuine transacted comparables — 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.Exit tax position — Model your RPGT before you buy, not when you sell. Holding period changes the maths substantially, especially for foreign owners.
- 5.Vacant possession terms — Agree in writing what stays — air-conditioners, built-ins, curtains, lights. Fixture disputes at handover are entirely avoidable.

Verified sub-sale asking prices. Asking is not transacted — expect movement between the two.
Recent prices. Shop offices. Launched in 2011 from about RM479,800 to RM1.8M; 2026 asking prices about RM1.1M–2.6M depending on floor and frontage.
The building is 13 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 — arrears across the building are the number that predicts your future maintenance bill.
A foreign buyer can purchase here — the RM1M minimum is cleared. 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.

Vantage Desiran Tanjung subsale — common questions
What is the price of Vantage Desiran Tanjung?
Shop offices. Launched in 2011 from about RM479,800 to RM1.8M; 2026 asking prices about RM1.1M–2.6M depending on floor and frontage.
Is Vantage Desiran Tanjung freehold or leasehold?
Vantage Desiran Tanjung is leasehold, on a commercial title. 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 Vantage Desiran Tanjung?
Yes, with state consent. Penang's land office applies the same conditions to commercial buildings as to homes, including the minimum purchase price and the three-year bar on reselling, and charges a higher application fee of RM20,000 per title. The lower MM2H minimum covers residential property only. Ask your lawyer which minimum applies to the unit you're considering, and budget for the state levy and a flat 8% stamp duty.
How much is the rent at Vantage Desiran Tanjung?
Asking rents ran from RM4,300 to RM8,000 a month in September–October 2026, for shop-office units. These are asking rents on the main property portals, not signed leases. Short-term holiday letting isn't allowed in condos on Penang Island, so think in one- or two-year tenancies.
