Stamp duty and the first-home rules
The first-time buyer stamp duty exemption currently covers properties priced up to RM500,000 for sale and purchase agreements signed from 1 January 2026 to 31 December 2027, so the 9 projects starting below RM500,000 may qualify for some units. Budget 2027 proposes a wider exemption from 2027, which is not yet law. Read our Budget 2027 explainer and check eligibility for the exact unit price.
Questions to ask before you book
- What is the price of the exact unit and floor I want, not just the starting price?
- Can you send the current official price list and the units still available?
- What is the tenure and, for leasehold, how many years remain?
- What is the confirmed completion date, and how does it link to the payment schedule?
- Which legal and loan fees does the developer absorb, and do any packages change the price on the SPA?
To plan upfront cash, read how much a new launch needs as a downpayment. For the wider picture, see the Johor Bahru new launch projects guide, the RTS Link and Johor property explainer and our area guides.

Are any Johor new launches under RM600K ready to move in?
None of the projects in this list is shown as completed at the moment. Check the handover status, because 'completed' on a project page reflects developer material at the time of writing.
What is the monthly instalment for a RM500,000 new launch in Johor?
As an illustration, a 90% loan on RM500,000 over 35 years at 4% a year is about RM1,990 a month. Your rate, margin and tenure will differ, so use the mortgage calculator or ask your bank.
Why are the lowest prices usually the smallest units?
A developer's starting price normally describes the smallest or least expensive unit type. Compare the price per square foot and the size range on the project page before judging value.
