Live Better, Choose Smarter: Malaysia’s Most Desired Properties in 2024

What does elevated living mean to you?

A skyline view that inspires you every morning? A home surrounded by cafes, co-working spots, and green trails? Or maybe it’s an office that reflects your ambitions?

Malaysians are making bold, lifestyle-led property choices—and the data shows exactly where they’re heading.

Drawing from millions of visits across iProperty.com.my and PropertyGuru.com.my, we’ve uncovered the most sought-after homes and offices of the year. These aren’t just popular addresses—they’re reflections of how Malaysians want to live, work, and thrive in 2024.


The 2024 Lifestyle Shift: Where Aspirations Meet Real Estate

1. City Living, Reimagined
It’s not just about location anymore—it’s about experience.
Buyers are falling for high-rise homes that offer more than just square footage. Rooftop gardens, vibrant communities, and walkable neighbourhoods in places like KL City Centre and Johor Bahru are leading the charge.

2. Ambition Has a New Address
Workspaces are evolving, too. Offices that offer lifestyle perks—like proximity to great coffee, wellness amenities, and seamless connectivity—are now in high demand.

3. Johor: Where Urban Living Meets Cross-Border Ease
Johor Bahru is redefining convenience and sophistication for both Malaysians and Singaporeans.
Many Malaysians working in Singapore now call JB home—enjoying more space, modern high-rise residences with full condo facilities, and a quick commute across the Causeway.

For Singaporeans, the appeal spans sleek cityside condominiums to serene, master-planned estates that offer privacy, greenery, and resort-style living—ideal for weekend escapes or future retirement.

On the commercial front, offices near the checkpoint are also drawing attention from businesses that rely on cross-border mobility.

With rising liveability, curated environments, and seamless access, Johor offers elevated living on both sides of the border.

4. Data-Driven Decisions for Dream Living
Today’s savvy property seekers are turning to digital platforms for guidance.
From clicks to enquiries, the numbers don’t lie—what’s most viewed often reflects what’s most valued. That’s why the Consumer Demand Awards highlight real choices made by real people.
