Analysis
The 900-acre Melawati township is located about 13km north east of KLCC, and it is in the middle of an urban redevelopment initiative. While the property market is currently flat, the longer-term outlook looks bright as land gets scarcer in KL.
With continued growth in the Melawati area and newer developments coming on, property values are expected to increase. Notable completed residential and commercial projects in the immediate vicinity include Saville @ Melawati (completed in 2013), 16 Quartz (2015), Sunway Montana (2019), Sunway Rydgeway (2011), Serini Melawati (2018), Melawati Corporate Centre (2017), Melawati Mall (2017), Nadayu 62 (2017), and Nadayu 63 (2019). Ongoing residential projects in Melawati include Residensi Permata (2022), Upperville @ 16 Quartz (2022), and M Adora (2024).

Whether as a base for your business’ operations or as an investment, Melawati Corporate Centre offers several sound reasons for one to consider:
- Freehold office suites
- Located in matured township of Taman Melawati
- Excellent connectivity via MRR 2, DUKE, AKLEH & SUKE
- 700m to Melawati Mall
- 12km to KL City Centre
- Surrounded by the hills of Melawati and Bukit Tabur
- Views of the world’s longest quartz ridge, the Klang Gates Quartz Ridge
- Flexible layout options
- Rooftop sky terrace
- 3 tier security
- Approximately 500 parking bays
Landed residential properties in Melawati comprise mainly terrace houses, semi-dees, and bungalows, and the prices of landed properties are relatively stable. Most of the land in the township have freehold tenure, and thus, these properties are highly sought after. Due to its increasing popularity and new developments mushrooming close to the hilltops, properties on the secondary market have benefitted from increased value.
Shop-offices in high-traffic locations such as Jalan Negara and Jalan Bandar continue to see good demand. As for office units at Melawati Square and Melawati Corporate Centre, rent per month ranges from RM6,300 to RM11,000, and that translates to a gross return yield of approximately 3.8% to 5% a year.
