5 things that actually separate Taman Universiti from other Tanjung Malim houses
Not a feature list. This is an investor’s product; here is what to weigh.
Built for room letting near UPSI
Each house is drawn with 11 (intermediate) or 13 (corner) bedrooms, almost every one with its own toilet and shower, plus a ground-floor kitchen, a lounge and a reading room upstairs. The developer puts UPSI at 1 km and prints a figure of 8,000 people for it. This is a rooming house, not a family home.
On schedule on the register
As read on 8 October 2026 the register shows 87.5% built and the status Lancar (on schedule). The advertisement filed with the ministry in July 2026 prints expected completion January 2027.
Wired for many tenants
Intermediate lots: 11 water-heater points, 12 air-conditioner points, 32 power points and three-phase supply; corners: 13 heaters, 15 air-con points, 41 power points. An alarm system is provided on the ground floor.
Leasehold with no Bumiputera lots
99-year leasehold to 23 April 2123, about 96 years left in 2026, with no restriction in interest and no Bumiputera lots printed. Every lot in the row is open to any buyer the rules allow, including foreigners buying from the developer.
The trade-offs: price, use and exit
The band starts at RM860,000 — a price that only makes sense on rental income. Ask for evidence of achievable room rents, check that Majlis Daerah Tanjung Malim allows multiple-tenant use, and remember that the resale buyer for a 13-room house is another investor.
A single row of six, inside an existing taman
The developer’s site plan (January 2026) outlines lots 7613–7618 on Jalan Universiti 2, with existing shop offices across Jalan Universiti 1, existing terrace houses on the other sides and an open space (Kawasan Lapang) to the south.
Specification
No clubhouse, no guardhouse: individual houses in an open taman. From the specification in the filed advertisement:

What is on the record, and when
Both lot types, intermediate and corner
The developer’s plans draw the corner house and an intermediate house side by side on every floor (the intermediate house is shaded). Built-up figures are the register’s; the room counts are read from the plans.
Intermediate lot — about 3,864 sq ft, 11 bedrooms
A 22′-wide house, 55′ deep behind a 20′ car porch. Ground floor: living and dining, kitchen, and bedrooms 1 and 2, each with its own bathroom. First floor: five more bedrooms (3–7), a corridor and balconies. Second floor: four more (8–11), most with a balcony. The register lists 11 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms; I read the smaller register figure, 359 sq m (about 3,864 sq ft), as the intermediate house. The printed specification gives intermediate lots no auto-gate point, doorbell or gate light.
💬 Ask about the intermediate lots
Corner lot — about 5,339 sq ft, 13 bedrooms on the register
A 30′-wide house with a side terrace. Ground floor: living, dining, a store, kitchen and bedrooms 1–3. First floor: bedrooms 4–8 around a lounge (Ruang Istirahat) with a balcony. Second floor: bedrooms 9–14 and a reading room (Ruang Baca). Note the count: the corner plan labels bedrooms up to 14, while the register and the specification (13 WCs, 13 water-heater points) give 13 — ask the developer which room is not counted as a bedroom before you plan rents on 14. I read the larger register figure, 496 sq m (about 5,339 sq ft), as the corner.
💬 Ask about the corner lotsPlans from the developer’s advertisement filed with the housing ministry (the first-floor plan is in the gallery). The register gives a built-up range of 359–496 sq m without saying which lot is which; matching the figures to intermediate and corner lots is my reading. Confirm the area of your exact lot in the SPA.
Taman Universiti in pictures
All images are from the developer’s advertisement filed with the housing ministry and its site plan. The render is an artist’s impression and not a representation of the finished building. I have no site photographs; ask me for current progress photos.
💬 Ask for site progress photosWhere Taman Universiti sits, and what is measurably near it
Taman Universiti is an existing estate in Tanjung Malim, the Muallim district town on the Perak–Selangor border. The developer’s map places it south-east of the town, close to Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI), with the KTM station to the west and Proton City and UPSI’s Sultan Azlan Shah campus to the north.
The map loads only when you click it, so this page does not send anything to Google before you ask it to.
Developer’s figures
- UPSI — 1 km
- Tanjung Malim town — 3.8 km
- North–South Expressway — 4 km
- Proton City — 7 km
On the developer’s map
- Tanjung Malim KTM station (ETS and KTM Komuter)
- UPSI Sultan Azlan Shah campus, Proton City
- Roads to Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur and Kalumpang
Cities (straight line, my measurement)
- Kuala Lumpur city centre — ~63 km
- Ipoh city centre — ~113 km
The first column is the developer’s own figures, printed on its flyer. I could not reach a road-routing service on 8 October 2026, so the city figures are straight-line distances from the register’s site coordinates (3.6850, 101.5288); the drive is longer. Check your own route.
6 terraces in Tanjung Malim — permitted from RM860,000
On the government housing register this scheme is entered as Taman Universiti, project code 11630-2. The licence is held by Bioworld Creations Sdn Bhd (11630). The entry is Lancar (on schedule) at 87.5% built, and its advertising permit was renewed in August 2026. I read the entry on teduh.kpkt.gov.my on 8 October 2026.
| Project code | Registered name | Licensed developer | Advertising permit | Permit expires | Units | Bed / bath | Price band on the permit | Built | Status |

Building type: three-storey terrace houses (Rumah Teres, 3 storeys), 359–496 sq m (about 3,864–5,339 sq ft). Approving authority: Majlis Daerah Tanjung Malim, plan reference Bil.(6)Dlm.MDTM/KJKB(PB)01/07/2022. Tenure: 99-year leasehold, expires 23 April 2123. Land encumbrance: none (‘Tiada’). Restriction in interest: none printed (‘Sekatan-sekatan penting: Tiada’). Bumiputera lots: none (‘Tiada lot Bumiputera’). Expected completion printed on the advertisement filed with the ministry: January 2027 (the developer’s earlier flyer printed December 2026). Developer’s licence: the register carries 11630/08-2027/0444(A), valid 10 August 2014 to 9 August 2027; the filed advertisement and the flyer print the same number with the suffix (R). Permit valid from 12 August 2026; earlier permits 11630-2/08-2026/0723(N)-(L) and its (A) amendment ran from 12 August 2024 to 11 August 2026. SPA form: Schedule G (Jadual G, landed property with individual title). The register records no SPA date for this entry yet, and therefore no vacant-possession due date. The developer’s earlier register entry, 11630-1 (Taman Merdeka, Kinta district, six two-storey semi-detached houses), shows CCC on 20 June 2013.
The price band on the permit is the developer’s approved SPA (sale and purchase agreement) price range on the government register — the range within which units may be sold, not a current price list for any particular unit. Check the entry yourself: teduh.kpkt.gov.my/semakan-status-kemajuan?kodProjek=11630-2 · How to run this check yourself, and what the seven status words mean →
What the permitted price band tells you
The permitted band is RM860,000 to RM1,450,000 for six three-storey terraces of about 3,864–5,339 sq ft with 11–13 bedrooms. The register gives one range for the entry, not one per lot type; the bottom will be the intermediate houses and the top the corners, which have about 1,475 sq ft more built-up and two more bedrooms. Every figure in the band is above the RM500,000 minimum Perak sets for foreign buyers of landed homes in Zone 2. The current price list is a separate document: ask for it by name, with the lot number.
About 87.5% built, on schedule
The register records 87.5% built, status Lancar — on schedule, no adverse flag — as read on 8 October 2026. The percentage is the developer’s own progress return to the ministry (the statutory 7(f) report). The filed advertisement (July 2026) prints expected completion January 2027. No SPA date is recorded for the entry yet, so the register cannot show a vacant-possession due date; under Schedule G it will be 24 months from your SPA. Note today’s reading and re-check before each progress payment your bank releases. Status vocabulary is fixed: Belum Mula, Lancar, Lewat, Sakit, Siap Dengan CCC / CFO, Permit Telah Dibatalkan. This entry sits in Lancar — no adverse flag.
Foreign buyers: what Perak allows
Yes in principle. The land is leasehold, there are no Bumiputera lots, and the whole permitted band (RM860,000 to RM1,450,000) is above the RM500,000 minimum for a landed home in Zone 2, which names Tanjong Malim. A foreign buyer must buy direct from the developer, with State Authority consent.
Perak’s rules for foreign buyers, as summarised in the Malaysian Bar’s Circular 444/2024 (state table as at October 2024): since September 2023 non-citizens and foreign companies may not acquire freehold property in Perak. On leasehold land a home must be bought direct from the developer — residential sub-sales to foreigners are not permitted. Minimum prices: Zone 1 (Ipoh) RM700,000 landed / RM500,000 strata; Zone 2 (Manjung, Taiping, Teluk Intan, Tanjong Malim, Kampar, Batu Gajah, Kuala Kangsar) RM500,000 landed / RM350,000 strata; Zone 3 (Kerian, Perak Tengah, Tapah, Pengkalan Hulu, Gerik, Lenggong, Selama) RM300,000 landed / RM350,000 strata. Commercial property needs at least RM1,000,000 (Zone 1–2) or RM800,000 (Zone 3). State Authority consent is always required, and Bumiputera-quota lots are not open to foreign buyers. These rules change: confirm the current position in writing with a Perak conveyancing lawyer before you pay anything.
What is not published, and therefore not on this page
- Which lots carry which built-up figure and bedroom count (the register gives a range only)
- Land area of the corner lots
- Whether the corner house has 13 or 14 bedrooms (plan and register differ)
- Local-authority conditions on letting rooms to multiple tenants
- Postcode (the developer prints none)
About Bioworld Creations Sdn Bhd
Start with the fact you can check yourself. The licensed developer on the government register is Bioworld Creations Sdn. Bhd., developer code 11630, licence 11630/08-2027/0444(A), valid 10 August 2014 to 9 August 2027. The filed advertisement prints company number 0793508-P and an office at No. 58, Jalan Ghazali Jawi, 31400 Ipoh; the register lists a registered address at Bandar Baru Medan Ipoh.
Its track record on the register is small: one earlier entry, 11630-1, Taman Merdeka in Kinta district — six two-storey semi-detached houses, completed with CCC on 20 June 2013. I found no website or press coverage for the company. A six-house row is a modest job, and on 8 October 2026 the register shows it on schedule at 87.5%.
My view: with a small developer, the protections that matter are the statutory ones — pay only into the Housing Development Account named in the SPA, and only against the architect’s certificates for each stage.
Project website: none published. Licence and permit history: KPKT TEDUH portal (teduh.kpkt.gov.my), developer code 11630.
Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Taman Universiti?
The SPA price band on the advertising permit is RM860,000 to RM1,450,000 for the six three-storey terraces; the register gives one range for the entry, with the intermediate houses at the lower end and the corners at the upper end. That is the developer’s approved selling-price range on the government housing register as I read it on 8 October 2026 — not a current price list for any particular unit. For the current unit-by-unit price list, WhatsApp me.
When will Taman Universiti be completed?
The developer’s advertisement filed with the housing ministry prints expected completion in January 2027, and on 8 October 2026 the register shows the row 87.5% built and Lancar (on schedule). Under the Schedule G SPA, vacant possession is due within 24 months of your SPA date.
How many bedrooms does each house have?
The register gives 11 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms for the intermediate houses and 13 and 13 for the corners. The corner plan labels bedrooms up to 14, so ask the developer which room is counted otherwise before you plan rents on it.
Who is it designed for?
Investors letting rooms, mainly to students and staff of UPSI, which the developer puts 1 km away. Each house has a bathroom for almost every bedroom, a lounge, a reading room and wiring for an air-conditioner and water heater in each room. It is not a typical family home.
Is it freehold or leasehold?
It is 99-year leasehold, expiring on 23 April 2123, so about 96 years remain in 2026. The filed advertisement prints no land encumbrance and no restriction in interest.
Are there Bumiputera lots?
No. The filed advertisement states ‘Tiada lot Bumiputera’ — none of the six lots is reserved.
Can foreigners or Singaporeans buy?
Yes in principle. The land is leasehold, there are no Bumiputera lots, and the whole permitted band is above the RM500,000 minimum for a landed home in Zone 2, which names Tanjong Malim. Under Perak’s rules (Malaysian Bar Circular 444/2024, table as at October 2024) a foreigner must buy direct from the developer, with State Authority consent. Confirm the current rules with a lawyer before you pay anything.
Can I let the rooms out legally?
Ask before you buy: letting a house room by room may need the local authority’s approval or licence, and the conditions are set by Majlis Daerah Tanjung Malim, not by the developer. I will ask the council’s current position for you.
How far is it from UPSI and Kuala Lumpur?
The developer puts UPSI at 1 km, Tanjung Malim town at 3.8 km, the North–South Expressway at 4 km and Proton City at 7 km. Kuala Lumpur city centre is about 63 km in a straight line, and the KTM station gives ETS and Komuter services.
How much can I borrow?
For your first and second residential property, Malaysian banks generally lend up to 90% of the price, subject to income and credit record; for a third property the limit is 70%. Banks may value a 13-room house on its rental income, so get a written in-principle approval early.
How do I view or book?
WhatsApp me on +60 10-906 6685. Only six houses exist, so I will first send the current price list and confirm which lots are open, then arrange a site visit.
5 things worth asking for before you book
Six houses, one small developer, and a price that depends on rent. I will ask for all of these on your behalf:
- The bedroom count and built-up of your exact lot, in the SPA
- Majlis Daerah Tanjung Malim’s conditions for letting rooms to multiple tenants
- Evidence of current room rents around UPSI
- The Housing Development Account bank and number, to pay into
- The latest architect’s progress certificate and the developer’s handover date in writing
No obligation, and no mailing list.

The unit mix, the permitted price and how far up it is
None of this table is the developer’s account of itself. It is what the Ministry of Housing and Local Government records from the 7(f) returns: unit type, bedrooms and bathrooms, built-up area, unit count, the price range on the permit, and the certified percentage complete. A brochure price can be revised; the price on the permit was filed. A brochure need not mention progress; the percentage is certified. The status vocabulary is theirs too: Lancar (on schedule), Lewat (behind), Sakit (sick), Terbengkalai (abandoned).

Swipe the table sideways for the rest of the columns.
This is the document the developer had to file, and the housing department had to approve, before it was allowed to advertise at all — served from the ministry’s own host. It normally carries the location plan, the developer licence and building-plan approval references, the expected completion date, the encumbrance position, and the unit count and price floor and ceiling for each type. The brochure a salesperson hands you can be reissued. This one cannot.

What to do with the number. Read it against the delivery date in your own agreement, not against what a salesperson says. A project with a year left on its statutory clock and a third of the building up is telling you something the brochure will not.
