Selangor
Selangor holds 31 verified developments on this site. Published prices run from RM230,000 to RM4,000,000, and eighteen of the 31 are freehold against ten leasehold — a higher freehold share than Kuala Lumpur.
Where they sit. Petaling Jaya has six and Rawang five. Puchong and Seri Kembangan have three each; Ara Damansara, Bandar Damai Perdana, Bandar Sri Damansara, Bangi and Subang Jaya two each; Cyberjaya, Kwasa Damansara, Shah Alam and Sungai Buloh one each. The pattern is a commuting one rather than a city-centre one: the MRT Kajang and Putrajaya lines through Kwasa Damansara and Serdang, the LRT into Puchong and Subang, the KTM Komuter spine up to Rawang, and the Federal, LDP, NKVE and Guthrie corridors for everyone else. Distances on the project pages are the ones the developer or the approving council published; nothing has been measured by eye.
The rules here are not Kuala Lumpur's. Selangor works by zone. Zone 1 — Petaling, Gombak, Hulu Langat, Sepang and Klang — and Zone 2 apply a RM2,000,000 residential floor for non-citizens; Zone 3, meaning Hulu Selangor and Sabak Bernam, applies RM1,000,000. Commercial and industrial is a separate and higher line at RM3,000,000 statewide. Only strata and strata-landed property is open: landed residential on an individual title is closed to non-citizens at any price. Consent comes from the state land office, not the federal committee that handles Kuala Lumpur, and the temporary RM1,500,000 floor allowed in 2020 has lapsed.
The honest read. Twenty-two of these 31 developments are closed to non-citizens outright on price — the highest proportion of any state on this site, and a direct consequence of the RM2,000,000 Zone 1 floor sitting above almost every launch price in Petaling Jaya, Puchong, Seri Kembangan and Rawang. NAPIC's 1Q2026 Selangor figures show 3,745 unsold residential units, 2,407 unsold completed serviced apartments and 1,904 newly launched units, with a secondary-market average of RM559,935. Three projects have no tenure I can verify, and five have no developer price list.

What is the minimum price for a foreigner buying property in Selangor?
It depends which district you are buying in, because Selangor is zoned and Kuala Lumpur is not. In Zone 1 — Petaling, Gombak, Hulu Langat, Sepang and Klang — and in Zone 2 — Kuala Selangor and Kuala Langat — the residential floor for a non-citizen is RM2,000,000. In Zone 3 — Hulu Selangor and Sabak Bernam — it is RM1,000,000.
Commercial and industrial property is a separate and higher line again: RM3,000,000 across the whole state, regardless of zone.
That means the RM1,000,000 figure people quote for Kuala Lumpur is wrong for almost all of Selangor, and it is wrong by a factor of two in exactly the districts most buyers are looking at. Petaling Jaya, Subang Jaya, Shah Alam, Puchong, Cyberjaya and Bangi all sit in Zone 1. Consent comes from the Selangor state land office, not the Federal Territory committee.
Can a foreigner buy a landed house in Selangor?
Only if it is strata landed. Selangor opens strata property and strata landed property to non-citizens; landed residential property held on an individual title is not open to a foreigner at any price, in any zone, however far above RM2,000,000 you are willing to go.
There is a second gate on top of that. Selangor applies a Bumiputera quota to residential developments, and the non-Bumiputera allocation is capped, so a unit can be unavailable to you for reasons that have nothing to do with your passport or your budget.
Before you fall in love with a terrace or a semi-detached in Petaling Jaya, ask the developer in writing whether the title is an individual title or a strata title. Those two words decide whether the transaction is possible at all.
I read that Selangor lowered the threshold to RM1.5 million. Is that still true?
No. The reduction to RM1,500,000 was a temporary measure introduced in 2020 and it has lapsed. Articles and agent pages still repeat it, which is why it is worth stating plainly.
The operative figures are the zoned ones: RM2,000,000 in Zones 1 and 2, RM1,000,000 in Zone 3, and RM3,000,000 for commercial and industrial statewide.
Thresholds are a state matter and they move. Have a Selangor conveyancing solicitor obtain written confirmation from the Pejabat Tanah dan Galian Selangor for your specific unit, district and price before you pay a booking fee — not after.
Are the Selangor projects on this site freehold or leasehold?
Of the 31 Selangor developments verified here, 18 carry a freehold statement I can point to, 10 are leasehold, and 3 have no tenure statement published by anyone.
Where a project is leasehold, this site records the expiry year rather than the original term wherever a source gives it — leases to 2091, 2103 and 2116 all appear on this list, and the difference between them is decades of remaining term on an otherwise similar-looking building.
Three unresolved out of thirty-one is the honest gap. Tenure is printed on the advertising and sale permit; ask to see the permit rather than accept a listing site's description.
How many Selangor projects can a foreigner actually buy into?
Very few — at least 23 of the 31 verified here carry an explicit finding that no unit qualifies for a non-citizen. That is a far harsher ratio than Kuala Lumpur, and the reason is arithmetic rather than sentiment: the Zone 1 floor is RM2,000,000 while the bulk of what Selangor builds is priced for local owner-occupiers.
Only 24 of the 31 publish a ringgit figure at all. Across those the lowest published number is RM230,000, the permit minimum at Sena Residences in Shah Alam, and the highest is RM3,617,900, the permit maximum at The Rise at Emerald Rawang.
Two further projects top out below RM2,000,000 on their permits but publish no eligibility statement, so they are not counted in the 23. The real number is higher than 23; it is not lower. And note the commercial line: a strata office or SOFO suite has to clear RM3,000,000 and be held through a Malaysian-registered company besides.
Is Selangor oversupplied?
Yes, on the government's own numbers. NAPIC's first quarter 2026 figures for Selangor record a residential overhang of 3,745 units and 2,407 unsold completed serviced apartment units, against 1,904 new units launched in the same quarter.
For context on pricing rather than volume, the average secondary transaction price recorded for Selangor in that quarter was RM559,935. Set that against a RM2,000,000 foreign-buyer floor and you can see how narrow the eligible slice of this market is.
Completed unsold stock caps both price and rent and clears slowly. Buy on a rent you have verified in the actual building, negotiate rather than accept the list price, and use the current NAPIC quarter when you read this — these are 1Q2026 figures.
