Times Square 2 (TS2) @ Jalan Imbi

No. Parking at TS2 is on a rental basis with no bay allocated to your unit — it is not an accessory parcel attached to your strata title. That is a structural difference from most Malaysian developments and it is the fact I would want you to understand before anything else on this page.

What nobody publishes: the total number of bays (the government filing has no figure; an agent source says around 335 for 629 units) and the monthly rental rate per bay. So there are three questions to get answered in writing: how many bays, how much per month, and can a bay be secured when you buy or is it allocated month to month.

In fairness to the building, the arrangement is internally consistent: it is 100 m from a monorail station, three rail lines are within walking distance, and the reduced parking is reportedly part of what the green rating is based on. As a car-light city apartment it makes sense. As a home for a two-car household it may not. That is a decision you can only make with the actual numbers, so let me get them for you.

Yes. The KPKT filing records the tenure as “Kekal” — freehold. There is no lease term and no expiry year.

That is worth more here than it would be elsewhere. In the Bukit Bintang core a large share of new residential stock is leasehold, or sits on a commercial title, or both. Freehold in this location removes the lease-term discount from your eventual resale conversation entirely, and it is one of the two genuinely strong cards this project holds — the other being the rail access.

The dates on record are September 2026 on the 2023 KPKT filing and October 2027 on the developer’s current project page, with one publication saying Q4 2027. Since the filing date has already passed and construction was still in progress as at the developer’s May 2026 photograph, the October 2027 figure is clearly the live one and the filing date is simply the original programme.

I would still not treat October 2027 as settled. The only date that binds anyone is the one written into your sale and purchase agreement, where statutory liquidated damages attach to it. Get that date in writing before you book, and ask for the current month’s construction photographs while you are at it.

Genuinely unresolved, and worth insisting on an answer. The KPKT filing says three bedrooms and three bathrooms at 888 sq ft. The developer’s own page calls it “2 BR + dual-key”, and an agent source describes two bedrooms plus a studio.

These are not cosmetic differences. A dual-key has two lockable entrances and can be let separately while you live in the other half, which changes your financing, your tenancy options and your strata obligations. A three-bedroom cannot. The developer does actively promote “dual key design to offer flexibility in renting out”, which suggests the dual-key version is current and the filing reflects an earlier configuration — but that is inference. Ask for the stamped floor plan for the specific unit you are considering.

Probably, but not under a name anyone official uses. The developer’s press material and two publications describe the range as running from a 488 sq ft one-bedroom to a 1,356 sq ft three-bedroom, and one portal describes a 1,356 sq ft three-bedroom corner. Yet the KPKT filing’s largest type is 1,038 sq ft, and the developer publishes only four floor plans, A to D.

One agent site fills the gap by labelling a 1,356 sq ft plan “Type F” and a 976 sq ft plan “Type E”. Neither label appears in any developer or government source, so I have not put them on this page. If you want the largest unit in the building, ask by size rather than by letter — and ask to see it on a stamped drawing.

The sources disagree. The KPKT filing places the 40 m infinity pool, jacuzzis, sauna, gymnasium and yoga deck on Level 7. The developer’s current page places the pool and all the sky facilities on Level 41, with Level 7 as a family-oriented “Urban Deck” instead.

The likely explanation is a design revision after the 2023 filing, which is ordinary and unremarkable. But it matters practically: living two floors above a pool deck is a different experience from living two floors above a children’s playground, and it affects which units you should be looking at. Ask for the current facilities plan and the stacking diagram.

Reported, but not by the developer. Trade and portal coverage both describe TS2 as GreenRE Gold, tied to 126 solar panels, water-efficient fittings, LED lighting, rainwater harvesting and the rental-only parking model.

What is missing: no certificate number, no statement of whether it is provisional or final, and no claim on the developer’s own project page or in the government filing. Provisional ratings are awarded at design stage and are meant to convert on completion; whether this one has is exactly the sort of thing that goes unchecked. So this page reports it as a media-stated Gold rating of unconfirmed status, and I would ask for the certificate before treating it as a feature you are paying for.

The developer asserts “direct linkages to Berjaya Times Square and LaLaport BBCC” and refers to two overhead bridges. Trade coverage repeats the claim. An agent source describes both bridges as planned.

I have written them on this page as the developer’s stated intention rather than as built infrastructure, because the distinction is the whole value of the location. A covered bridge into a mall in Kuala Lumpur’s climate is a meaningful daily amenity; an intended bridge subject to approvals is a hope. Ask whether the bridges are approved, who is building them, and when — and whether anything in your sale and purchase agreement commits to them.

Not published by the developer or in the filing. An agent source quotes RM0.66 per square foot with a sinking fund of 10% of the service charge — a single unverified source, which is not good enough to publish as fact.

Ask for the figure in writing, and ask one question specific to this building: how the car park is billed on top. In a development where parking is rented rather than owned, your true monthly outgoing is the service charge plus the bay rental, and only the two together tell you what holding this unit actually costs.

Because the developer’s own page promotes a projected return that trade coverage does not support, and because a yield forecast on a building completing in 2027 is a projection rather than a fact. It depends on occupancy, on management quality, on how the parking arrangement lands with tenants, and on a Bukit Bintang rental market several years out.

I do not publish yield projections on any project. If you want to underwrite this as an investment, I will build the numbers with you from actual comparable rents in the immediate area, the real service charge once we have it, and the bay rental — and if they do not work, I will tell you that too. That is a more useful conversation than a percentage on a brochure.

Berjaya Times Square is the existing mall, hotel and apartment complex on Jalan Imbi, opened in the early 2000s. Times Square 2 (TS2) is a new, separate 41-storey tower on the adjoining site by a company in the same group. They are not the same building and buying into TS2 does not give you a unit in the original.

The connection is useful to you in one specific way: it lets you inspect a twenty-year-old building by the same group, on the same lot, before you commit to an off-plan purchase. Walk the original’s lifts, corridors and car park and see how two decades of intensive use have been managed. That is a rare advantage on a new launch — use it.
