What's usual for a serviced residence in KL, not checked for this building. Every owner is different, so confirm with the agent before you pay anything.

    An employment or offer letter is usually enough.

  • Usually fully furnished

    “Partly furnished” often means only a kitchen, wardrobes and air-conditioning, so check the photos.

  • Pets: ask first

    Many KL condos don't allow pets, and it's up to each building. Ask the agent before you view.

  • Fibre broadband

    You usually sign up yourself with Unifi, Maxis or TIME. Check which one serves the building.

In Malaysia, landlords usually ask for two months' rent as a security deposit plus half a month for utilities, and the tenant pays stamp duty on the agreement. Serviced residences often ask for less on short stays. The exact amounts are set by each owner, so confirm them with the agent.

Shah Alam

The neighbourhood

Shah Alam

The capital of Selangor, planned around lakes and parks, with a large student population at UiTM. The LRT Shah Alam Line links it to Klang and to the MRT at Bandar Utama, and the Kelana Jaya Line reaches its southern edge at Subang Alam. Most people here work in Shah Alam or nearby, as the city centre is a long ride away.
