Is it leasehold of freehold? Is it in Selangor and WP?

If it is freehold, then no issue at all as bumi lot in these states are just for the discount quota. Once owned by a bumi it can be freely transferred to another person without any issue.

For freehold, on the other hand, is a little tricky. Regardless of the "Bumi lot" status of the property, once a leasehold is owned by a Bumiputra, it can be difficult to transfer it to a non-bumi, as per what I was told. This is because leasehold properties require state consent, and it is up to their discredion to allow the transfer or not.

In states like JB and Negeri9, the "bumi lot" is part of the title. Hence bumi lot properties in these areas have a 20% deduction in MV based on what my valuers tell me.

Correct me if I am wrong, as no one is 100% right.

Then no problem. Once bought, even by a bumi as a bumi lot (for the bumi discount), the bumi owner can let it go to anyone, bumi or otherwise

wild_card_my, your advice only applicable if the strata title been issued by the developer. If master title non-bumi can't purchase bumi lot.

Thanks for the correction. Are you referring to Master title Leasehold or Freehold or both? So if Master title, bought as Bumi lot with Bumi quota... bumi owners can't transfer to non bumi until the master title has been sub-divided? I will have to learn more about this.

Perhaps this apply to mastertitle units which have not been subdivided into individual titles as well. Is that correct, Alvinyeo?

Understood, thanks for the update. I learned something new today.
