Previously a small tin-mining town with a few rows of shophouses, Rawang has seen significant growth in recent years. Rawang’s population has tripled to 700,000 in 2012.
One of the pioneering property developers for this area is Low Yat Group. The Group started developing the 2,670-acre leasehold Bandar Tasik Puteri (BTP) township in the late 1990s. According to the developer, BTP is considered the largest township in the northern side of the Klang Valley.
Low Yat Group has focused on developing mid-range properties since it launched its first phase in 1998. Block 14 comprised 1,000 units of 1-storey and 1.5-storey terraced houses that were sold at RM100,000 to RM150,000. As at 2014, BTP has built 12,000 residential and some commercial units on 1,335 acres of the township, and the population had exceeded 70,000.
The property developer has also invested about RM30mil into developing the township’s infrastructure, such as roads, street lights and drainage, as the population in the area is projected to increase to 100,000 by 2020.
The increasing population of Bandar Tasik Puteri will further advance with the urbanisation of ongoing and future developments. Some of the exciting developments in the near future comprise a shopping mall, street shops, offices and SOHOs.
About 40% of Bandar Tasik Puteri is still undeveloped. More than half of it is residential and about 10% is commercial developments. The remainder will be reserved for recreational parks, open spaces and institutions. The developer plans to complete the remaining 40% of its properties in Rawang progressively, within the next 15 to 20 years.

Project Details
Bandar Tasik Puteri (BTP) is a self-sustained township with more than 70,000 population in 2014. BTP was planned with five corridors to cater to different needs. It will comprise high-end houses like semi-detached units, super link bungalows and waterfront villas, mid-range houses and affordable apartments.
The township also features 33 acres of lush greenery in its Central Park, and a 27-hole Tasik Puteri Golf and Country Club. For security, the Low Yat Group has placed perimeter fencing around the entire BTP residential area and allowed individual neighbourhood residential associations (RAs) to decide on hiring or conducting security patrols.
The township’s first products offered included 2-storey terraced houses and 3-storey shophouses called Green Valley Park. The group has since steadily unveiled different types of developments in the township, and to date has developed close to 15,000 products. In 2019, Low Yat Group unveiled four products in Bandar Tasik Puteri — Perdana Park Phase 2, Acacia Park Phase 4, Quatro Garden Homes and Avenue 3.
Perdana Park is an 8-tower high-rise development. Phase 1 was launched in July 2004 and it comprised two 10-storey towers. It was completed in 2009 and is fully sold. Phase 2 will comprise two 15-storey towers. The first tower was opened for sale in July 2017, the second tower was launched in June 2019. The built-ups range from 850 sq ft to 950 sq ft, while the selling price is RM285,000 onwards.
Acacia Park comprises 889 two-storey terraced houses and is divided into four phases. The fourth and final phase of Acacia Park is spilt into two sub-phases — Phase 4A (117 units) and Phase 4B (101 units). Phases 1 to 3 have been handed over, while Phase 4A opened for sale in 2018. The selling price for Phase 4A, starts at RM561,000. The built-ups are between 1,892 sq ft and 2,585 sq ft, with a layout of 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Avenue 3 is a commercial development of 3- and 5-storey shop offices with built-ups of 4,291 sq ft. Due to its location, Avenue 3 enjoys direct access via LATAR highway. The commercial development is also facing the main road, which provides high exposure and visibility.
The group is looking to launch 645 gated terraced houses, 101 terraced houses, 151 townhouses, 48 cluster houses, 16 semi-detached houses, and 400 apartments in Bandar Tasik Puteri in the future.
Since the beginning of May 2019, BTP has initiated a buyer registration campaign, which is still on-going, where early bird discounts and packages are available.

Location
The developer has taken the initiative to build an interchange connecting the township from the Kuala Lumpur-Kuala Selangor Expressway (LATAR). The interchange opened in June 2017 and it cost about RM100 million. It has shortened the travelling time to Kuala Lumpur and eased traffic entering the township and the surrounding developments along Jalan Batu Arang.
LATAR is linked to Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), North-South Expressway and in the West Coast Expressway (WCE). The amenities in this Bandar Tasik Puteri include primary and secondary schools, a 33-acre central park, a 27-hole golf course, a clubhouse, and a bird sanctuary.
Bandar Tasik Puteri is surrounded by more than 20 developed townships, and it continues to flourish under the Low Yat Group. Enveloped by greenery and lakes, Bandar Tasik Puteri could be a suburban sanctuary that offers a comfortable living environment, as it continues to mature over the years.
In terms of developing the township, the group is taking things slow and steady. They plan to build accordingly to what the market needs and the occupancy rate has been quite good thus far.

Analysis
Bandar Tasik Puteri is a self-sustaining development. The first phase was to bring people. Once more people starts residing in the township, they would want the facilities and amenities. Therefore, the Low Yat Group is also focused on developing the commercial segment of Bandar Tasik Puteri by bringing in retailers such as fast-food operators, supermarkets, and organisers of recreational activities. The developer is also exploring the possibility of inviting international schools, universities, colleges and hospitals to set up in Bandar Tasik Puteri.
When all the facilities and amenities are in place, residents would not need to leave the township for their daily needs. The township has attracted many buyers from Sentul, Rawang, Kepong, Jinjang, Selayang, Segambut, and as far as Jalan Ipoh. More people have been considering this part of Klang Valley due to its relative affordability and improved travelling time.

Summary
Rawang’s location in the northern corridor of Kuala Lumpur is just 37km away from the Kuala Lumpur city centre, with good connectivity by road and rail. Rawang is already developing rapidly with the construction of new commercial and residential hubs. With enhanced infrastructure, public amenities and connectivity from Sungai Buloh, Petaling Jaya and the Kuala Lumpur city centre, Rawang is developing in the right direction.
Bandar Tasik Puteri is marked as one of the up and coming locations in Rawang for its location and proximity to various amenities, such as the growing industrial estates in neighbouring Kundang, and AEON in Rawang. The township is designed as a nature-inspired enclave of peace and quiet. Previous phases had been well-received with all units taken up.
Low Yat Group’s involvement in the Rawang/Batu Arang area has been ongoing for more than a decade and looks to continue as there are further plans to develop other parts of its land bank. Low Yat Group started as a construction company, and the group has diversified into property development, hotels and resorts, retail and commercial and agriculture. The other components contribute to the profitability but their bread and butter is still property development.
