MTD Properties' progress in accessible housing solutions

Ensuring that every Malaysian has the opportunity to own a home lies at the heart of MTD Properties' mission. As a dedicated property developer, MTD Properties is committed to providing affordable and accessible housing solutions that cater to the diverse needs of Malaysians across the nation.

With a focus on creating sustainable communities and fostering homeownership, MTD Properties strives to make the dream of owning a home a reality for all Malaysians, in support of the government’s many housing initiatives over the years, said its chief operating officer Dr Nik Fauzan Datuk Nik Faizul.

The group has over 20 years of experience in developing integrated township developments encompassing residential and commercial sectors, boutique developments, educational hubs and more, both locally and internationally. This extensive experience has enabled MTD Properties to emerge as a formidable player, particularly in offering competitive housing options. This, in turn, has provided initial home buyers with the opportunity to capitalise on the increased value of their properties over time.

“At MTD Properties, we see each brick laid as a bridge to a new beginning, each window as a portal to possibility. Our journey in accessible housing solutions is fueled by the belief that every person deserves a place to call home, and we're dedicated to building those bridges, one home at a time” Nik Fauzan told StarProperty. 

Pioneering progress

Pointing out that MTD has a good proven track record, Nik Fauzan assured that the construction subsidiary of the group meant that they had control of the quality of its projects. Locally, MTD Properties, through Tanduk 5 Residency, clinched the PAM Award in the Multiple Residential Low Rise category. On the international stage, MTD Properties was honoured with The Luxury Lifestyle Awards in the Best Luxury Mixed-Use Development category for One Crown Place in London, UK.

At present, MTD Properties has over 800 acres of land for its future undertakings. Nevertheless, it is still actively seeking new land banks in the Klang Valley area and other strategic locations.

Navigating the real estate landscape

“At MTD, our corporate culture is founded on
the principles of RITE: Respect, Integrity, Trust, and Excellence," said Nik Fauzan.

MTD Properties analyses the trends and projections set to define the Malaysian real estate scene in 2024, offering stakeholders an insightful perspective on the forthcoming challenges and opportunities. Recognising the impact of governmental policies emphasises the need to stay informed and adaptable, reflecting the group's strategic focus on remaining competitive in a dynamic industry landscape. 

“In 2024, stakeholders will closely scrutinise any new initiatives or regulatory alterations that could impact property development, financing and home ownership. A comprehensive grasp of and adaptation to these policies will be indispensable for real estate professionals and investors navigating the intricacies of the Malaysian market,” said Nik Fauzan. 

He emphasised that the group aligns with government initiatives to ensure that buyers can maximise benefits, thus delivering added value to homebuyers.

In the residential sector, several catalysts are expected to bolster sector growth in 2024. These include the relaxation of Malaysia My Second Home requirements, as proposed in Budget 2024; an increase in allocation from RM5bil to RM10bil for Skim Jaminan Kredit Perumahan, benefiting around 40,000 borrowers and sustained demand driven by owner-occupiers seeking competitively priced properties in desirable locations.
