Our take
- The entry price per sq ft is 34% above the median for completed condos in George Town. A gap of this size is common for a new launch.
- Of the 8 new launches we track in George Town, it has the 2nd lowest entry price per sq ft.
- Other new launches at a similar price per sq ft: Setia V Residences (RM 753 psf), Mezon (RM 696 psf) and M Zenni (RM 772 psf).
- House prices in Penang rose 16.6% over the last four years.
