Luxury Property Acquisition in Kuala Lumpur

Real Estate in Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur is the Malaysian capital, a regional base with a large Indian origin community. Its economy runs on palm oil, energy, property and Islamic finance, and the members we look after here are typically Malaysian Indian families and principals with Southeast Asian holdings.

Property is found before it is listed, where that is possible. We work through owners and their advisers rather than portals, arrange viewings privately, and bring in local counsel and tax advice before anything is signed.

Foreign ownership rules are specific and are confirmed with counsel before viewing. Practically, an international airport with a separate terminal used for private movements, and a lower cost base than Singapore, and used accordingly.

Most of what we arrange here runs between Kuala Lumpur and India. That means one desk holding both ends, so nothing is lost between an adviser there and a counterparty here, and neither side is left waiting on the other's working hours.

Held locally

How this works in Kuala Lumpur.

  • Requests from Kuala Lumpur reach a named relationship manager rather than a queue, and the same person stays with the request until it is closed.
  • Ownership structure is settled with your advisers before an offer is made.
  • Where something cannot be arranged in Kuala Lumpur on the terms you have asked for, you are told that plainly and early rather than late.
