Guys, I'm genuinely looking for honest feedback from people who actually buy / rent / invest in Malaysian property.

I’ve been working on a side project called TowerProp (https://towerprop.my/rental-index)
The idea came from my own frustration that in Malaysia:

- rental prices are mostly guesswork

- agents quote numbers with no proof

- it’s hard to know real rental demand

- yields are calculated blindly

- Brickz / NAPIC are useful but laggy

- PropertyGuru shows listings, not performance

What TowerProp tries to do

(early stage, still rough)

- Track 3,000+ condo projects across KL, Selangor, Johor, Penang, Putrajaya

- Estimate actual rental ranges per project

- Calculate gross yield, monthly cashflow, break-even years

- Show rental demand indicators (how fast units get rented, relisting behaviour, etc.) - coming soon

- Rank projects using a simple score (TowerScore 0–100)

- Highlight areas with stronger rental performance

- New launches: estimate rental yield before completion using nearby comparables

Right now it’s free and very data-focused (not listings, not ads).

What I really want to ask you all

I’d appreciate brutally honest answers, even if the answer is “this is useless” -- as a buyer / investor / landlord, would you actually use something like this? Why or why not?



Thanks for reading!

All this rental for abc xyz project no meaning one la

1 project can have studio, 1 bedroom, 2 3 4 until 5 bedroom

So the rental can go from 1000 to 5000, which also need to see kosong, partial or full furnish..

Too many factor

Ya agree, exact rent memang banyak faktor unit type, size, furnish etc.

Right now it’s not meant to price exact unit.

It’s more a project-level normalised view for investor stage, to see whether a project’s rental market is generally healthy or weak.

Unit-type breakdown is something we’re tracking in the background, but coverage still incomplete (not every project list cleanly by layout yet).

So for now it’s more about rental efficiency + demand trend, not “this unit should rent RMxxxx”.

Exact pricing still need on-ground check. This is more to filter projects early, before deciding whether it’s even worth considering for rental.

Q: If shown as ranges + demand trend, would that make more sense to you as a investor before buying?

If u want to make it more special, is better u become a property agent, but focus on rental only

Try get listing on that area, advertise on all platform. The big 3 platform is
Iprop
Propguru
Mudah

This 3 got their own market one

Other is almost shit result.. like edgeprop, propsocial..

Then u start from there and know the real response from market. That input will make ur new generated info more useful.
