KL Properties for MM2H Visa Holders

The Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) programme offers long-term residency for qualifying foreign nationals — and property ownership is a key part of the programme. Our curated selection highlights properties that meet MM2H purchase requirements, with guidance on the programme’s financial thresholds, timelines, and obligations.

Key Buying Tips

1

Purchase Within 12 Months

MM2H holders are required to purchase property within one year of visa endorsement. Start shortlisting properties during your visa application process to avoid time pressure after approval.

2

Understand the 10-Year Lock-In

Properties purchased under MM2H are subject to a 10-year lock-in period during which you cannot sell without specific government approval. Choose a property and location you’re committed to for the long term.

3

Meet Tier-Specific Requirements

MM2H has different tiers (Silver, Gold, Platinum) with varying financial requirements. Your tier determines minimum property purchase prices, fixed deposit requirements, and monthly income thresholds.

4

Budget for Foreign Buyer Costs

Ask your lawyer to confirm the selected transaction's duty classification and State Authority route. Do not assume one rate or timeline applies to every title.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the MM2H property purchase requirement?
Use MOTAC's current official conditions for the relevant tier and approval date, then separately verify the selected state's land controls and unit eligibility.
Can I rent out my MM2H property?
Yes, MM2H property owners can rent out their property, including for short-term homestay use, subject to local licensing requirements. Rental income is taxable in Malaysia.
What happens to my property if I cancel MM2H?
You retain ownership of your property even if you cancel your MM2H visa. However, you would then be subject to standard foreign ownership rules and the 10-year lock-in period still applies during its term.
