Zac’s Take
Zac Ong
Vivo is Aspen Vision City's mass-market tower trio in Batu Kawan — 3 towers, 48 floors each, 1,530 units total, freehold residential title. Two compact layouts: Type A intermediate 730 sqft and Type B corner 830 sqft. Both 2-bedroom.
The project is completed (Q4 2024) and essentially sold out — only 4 unsold units remain as of Mar 2025, all on level 48. Pricing during the launch window ran RM 290K to RM 683K. Anyone considering Vivo now is looking at the secondary subsale market.
My take: Vivo was Aspen's volume play and it worked. 1,530 units across 3 towers means active subsale supply — you can shop between sellers, and pricing tends to settle near transacted comparables (NAPIC data is helpful here). Best for first-time buyers and yield investors who want exposure to the broader Aspen Vision City masterplan (Vervea, Vertu, etc nearby). The 830 sqft corner Type B is the more liveable unit; the 730 sqft Type A intermediate works better as yield-only. Ask me for current subsale listings and recent transacted comparables before you offer.

How Vivo Executive Apartment is priced within Batu Kawan
At roughly RM479 psf, Vivo Executive Apartment sits toward the value end of Batu Kawan's condo band (RM450–620 psf). That usually reflects building age, floor level, or distance from the area's prime frontage — worth checking which, because the first two are negotiable and the third is not.

PSF bands are area-level indicative ranges from our own tracking, cross-checked against NAPIC/JPPH and Brickz transaction data — see the Penang Price Index. Unit-level pricing varies with floor, view and renovation; ask Zac for the actual transacted comparables in this building.
What to inspect before you commit at Vivo Executive Apartment
- 1.Internal pipes and electrical — For buildings past the ten-year mark, ask for a recent plumbing inspection. Full repiping is a five-figure cost you do not want to discover after VP.
- 2.Waterproofing and ceiling stains — Check bathroom floors, balcony thresholds and the ceiling directly under any upstairs wet area. Old stains that were painted over will reappear.
- 3.Lift modernisation status — Lifts have a service life. Ask whether modernisation has been done or is being planned — it is one of the largest special assessments a JMB can raise.
- 4.Original vs renovated layout — Confirm any structural alteration by a previous owner was approved. Unapproved hacking can complicate financing and your own future resale.
- 5.Actual unit orientation — Visit at the time of day you would normally be home. Afternoon west sun in Penang changes both comfort and your electricity bill.

Verified sub-sale asking prices. Asking is not transacted — expect movement between the two.
The building is 2 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 RM500,000 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.
