Where Taman Serai Emas sits, and what is near it

Bagan Serai is a market town in Kerian district on the old trunk road between Parit Buntar and Taiping. Taman Serai Emas is on its south-west side, off Jalan Syahbandar, at about 5.0048°N, 100.5257°E on the register.

55 houses in Bagan Serai — permitted from RM333,300

On the government housing register this scheme is entered as Taman Serai Emas, project code 14648-9, in Kerian district. The licence is held by KY Maju Development Sdn Bhd (14648). I read the entry on teduh.kpkt.gov.my on 8 October 2026.

Building types: 20 double-storey terraces (4 bed / 3 bath, 216–225 sq m, about 2,325–2,422 sq ft on the register) and 35 single-storey terraces (3 bed / 2 bath, 123 sq m, about 1,324 sq ft). The 12 shop offices in the same scheme are not on the housing register. Approving authority: Majlis Daerah Kerian; building plan reference printed on the filed advertisement M.D.KERIAN.B/02/13/23(05). Tenure: freehold (Kekal). Land encumbrance: none (Tiada). Restriction in interest: none (Tiada). Expected completion printed on the filed advertisement: September 2027. Developer’s licence: 14648/04-2028/0610(A), valid 13 April 2023 to 12 April 2028. Permit valid from 3 October 2025. SPA form: Schedule G (Jadual G, landed property with individual title). Date of first SPA: 17 October 2025; vacant possession due under the SPA: 17 October 2027. No earlier permit is listed. The developer’s own brochure prints no permit particulars.

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.

What the permitted price band tells you

The permitted band is RM333,300 to RM599,200. By type: single-storey terrace (35 units) RM333,300 – RM417,850; double-storey terrace (20 units) RM498,900 – RM599,200. The bottom of the band is an intermediate single-storey house and the top a large double-storey corner or end lot. The filed advertisement prints the same ranges. The current price list is a separate document: ask for it by name, with the plot number.

About 40.5% and 63% built, Lancar

The register records the double-storey houses 40.5% built and the single-storey houses 63% built, with the status Lancar — on schedule, no adverse flag — as I read it on 8 October 2026. First SPA 17 October 2025; vacant possession due 17 October 2027 under the SPA; the filed advertisement expects completion in September 2027. The percentages are the developer’s own progress returns to the ministry (the statutory 7(f) report). 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

No. Taman Serai Emas is freehold, and Perak has not allowed foreigners to buy freehold property since September 2023, whatever the price. (Bagan Serai falls under Zone 3, Kerian district — confirm the zone with a lawyer if the rules change.)

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.
