Why this address

Six reasons buyers shortlist Causewayz Square

The Causeway crossing is the single most valuable piece of geography in Johor. This site sits on top of it.

🚶

Six hundred metres to the checkpoint

EXSIM puts the CIQ at 600 metres from the site, with a covered pedestrian link bridge proposed to carry you there. That’s the difference between a commute you can walk and one you have to drive.

🧭

The whole site faces Singapore

Look at the developer’s own site plan and the orientation is deliberate: north is Jalan Ah Siang and Istana Pasir Pelangi, south is Singapore. The high floors are pointed at the strait.

📜

Freehold, in a city of leaseholds

Permanent title in the JB city centre is genuinely scarce. It removes lease-decay from your resale equation and widens the pool of future buyers.

🔑

Three dual-key layouts, not one

Type B at 592 sq ft, and Types F1 and F2 at 850 sq ft, all split into two lockable dwellings. Live in one, let the other — two income streams from a single loan and a single title.

🏊

Twenty-nine facilities on one deck

The Level 12 podium runs from an Infinity Seaside Pool and Horizon Pool to a pickle ball hall, trampoline oasis and reflexology garden. Sky decks on Levels 57 and 60 sit above that.

🏗️

A developer that shows its work

EXSIM publishes quarterly site photographs — Q1, Q2 and Q3 of 2026 are all up. You can check the build against the renders yourself, which is more than most developers offer.

Coven

The fourth tower has not been launched, and EXSIM has published nothing on its layouts, storey count or unit total. Which is worth knowing: it means the 3,692 figure covers the three released towers only, and the finished development will be larger.

On the RTS timeline. Civil works are targeted for completion by the end of 2026, with passenger service at Bukit Chagar expected in early 2027 — around five minutes to Woodlands North. Marketing that still promises trains running in 2026 is working from an old brief.

The government record

The statutory name is Residensi Dataran Selatan — three towers, and they add to exactly 3,692

“Causewayz Square” is not in the National Housing Department register. The licence is held by EXSIM Lumba Kuda Sdn Bhd (31100), and the three towers are registered individually.

Three independent fields agree

1,527 + 1,257 + 908 = 3,692 — exactly the unit count at the top of this page. The register’s coordinates sit 75 to 97 metres from the location this site had verified. And the licence holder, EXSIM Lumba Kuda Sdn Bhd, is an EXSIM project company, consistent with the developer this page names.

The towers are three different products at three different prices

This is the practical part. Axis Tower is permitted from RM593,600 with one- and two-bedroom layouts. Dover Tower is permitted to RM1,291,363 with layouts up to three bedrooms. A price per square foot quoted for “Causewayz Square” without naming a tower is an average of three buildings.

Ask which tower, then ask for the project code — and note that the towers also differ for a foreign buyer. Johor’s minimum for a non-citizen buying a strata unit is RM1,000,000: Dover and Brixton reach above it at the top of their bands, Axis Tower tops out at RM1,003,941 — effectively at the threshold, not above it.

All three towers are at 9.5% built

The percentages are the developer’s own returns under the statutory 7(f) report. At under a tenth built, you are buying delivery, not a building — so the delivery clause and the liquidated damages provision matter more than anything in the sales gallery.

3,692 units is also your exit. Count how many are already listed for sale and for rent, divide by 3,692, and treat that ratio as the honest input to any yield projection you are shown.

Track record

About EXSIM Group

EXSIM Group is a Malaysian developer best known in Kuala Lumpur for design-led serviced residences, where efficient, well-planned compact layouts are the whole proposition rather than an afterthought.

Causewayz Square is the group’s move into Johor, and the same thinking is visible in the product: nine tightly drawn layouts from 366 to 850 square feet, three of them dual-key, over an integrated retail base.

One thing worth crediting — EXSIM publishes quarterly construction photographs. Not every developer does. Below are the group’s own site photos from 2026, so you can check the build against the renders yourself.

Frequently asked questions

How far is Causewayz Square from the JB CIQ?

Six hundred metres, which is EXSIM’s own published figure. A covered pedestrian link bridge toward Bangunan Sultan Iskandar is proposed as part of the development.

You’ll see 660 m quoted on some listing sites. The developer says 600 m, and that’s the number on this page.

How many units are there at Causewayz Square?

3,692 units across the three released towers: Axis 908, Brixton 1,257 (B1 537 plus B2 720) and Dover 1,527 (D1 810 plus D2 717).

The fourth tower, Coven, hasn’t been released, so the finished development will be larger. Any figure you see quoted as a single project total today is either counting one tower or guessing at Coven.

What are the unit sizes and layouts?

Nine layouts in total. Axis has two: Type A at 366 sq ft (studio) and Type B at 592 sq ft (dual-key).

Brixton and Dover share seven: Type C at 474 sq ft (1 bed, 1 bath); D1 and D2 at 667 sq ft (2 bed, 2 bath); E1 and E2 at 850 sq ft (3 bed, 2 bath); and F1 and F2 at 850 sq ft (3 bed, 2 bath, dual-key).

Can foreigners and Singaporeans buy at Causewayz Square?

Yes, above the price floor. Johor sets a minimum purchase price of RM1,000,000 for strata property bought by non-citizens, and state consent is required. Several of the smaller layouts here fall below that figure.

Two costs on top of the price: the Johor foreign buyer levy, raised on 1 July 2025 to 3% of the purchase price or RM30,000 whichever is higher — with a second, higher minimum of RM50,000 where the property is a serviced residence transacted below RM1 million, which is what most of the layouts here are; the dividing line is the RM1,000,000 price itself, and above it the 3% exceeds either minimum — and the flat 8% stamp duty on transfer that has applied to non-citizens since 1 January 2026. Send me your nationality and target unit and I’ll work the full number for you.

How far is the RTS Link station?

Bukit Chagar station sits about 800 metres from the site in a straight line. You’ll see 300 m quoted in places — that doesn’t match the coordinates.

Civil works are targeted for completion by the end of 2026 and passenger service is expected in early 2027, putting Woodlands North around five minutes away.

Which tower should I buy in?

It depends on what you want the unit to do.

Axis holds the smallest stock — a 366 sq ft studio and a 592 sq ft dual-key — and has the highest sky deck at Level 60. Brixton and Dover carry the full seven-layout range up to 850 sq ft, better suited to living in or letting on a normal tenancy. Coven hasn’t been released.

What facilities are included?

Twenty-nine on the Level 12 podium shared by Brixton and Dover — including the Infinity Seaside Pool, Horizon Pool, Tranquil Pool, a pickle ball and badminton hall, trampoline oasis, yoga deck, gourmet kitchen and reflexology garden.

Axis has its own sky deck at Level 60 with the Wavescape Infinity Pool, Jacuzzi Lounge, Sky BBQ Deck and two lounges. Brixton and Dover each have a Level 57 sky garden with herbs garden and Glowing Sky BBQ.

What’s the price, completion date and maintenance fee?

EXSIM hasn’t published these on its project site, and I’d rather not repeat the figures circulating on listing sites — several of them contradict each other and some are more than a year old.

I get the current price list and the S&P schedule direct from the developer. Message me and I’ll send you what’s actually accurate today.

Can I get a Malaysian bank loan as a foreign buyer?

Yes. Malaysian banks lend to foreign buyers, typically at a lower margin of finance than for citizens — commonly 60–70% rather than 90%. Rates, tenure and the documents required vary by bank and by your income source.

Send me your buyer profile and I’ll point you to the banks currently most receptive to your situation.

Developer pricing moves, and the good stacks go first. Tell me your budget and whether you’re buying to live in or to let — I’ll send back the units that actually fit, not a generic brochure.

Build progress

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).

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.
