SHAH ALAM, May 24 (Bernama) -- The Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS) continues to explore new mechanisms to create opportunities for local communities to own homes at affordable prices.
PKNS Group chief executive officer Datuk Mahmud Abbas said this initiative is driven by the ongoing challenge of delivering affordable housing, especially in urban areas.
He said among the new mechanisms implemented by PKNS is the introduction of transit-oriented development (TOD) projects, targeting individuals or couples who prefer a minimalist lifestyle as the target market.
"In line with the state government's commitment to providing local communities with the opportunity to own homes at reasonable prices, PKNS is introducing Linkar 52, its first TOD project comprising two 33-storey towers with a total of 615 residential units.
"With built-up areas ranging from 450 to 850 square feet, these smaller units also have the potential to save on maintenance and utility costs, making them suitable for individuals and couples who prefer a minimalist lifestyle," he told a press conference after launching the Linkar 52 project at Galeria SA Sentral here today.
Mahmud said Linkar 52, developed as a key component of the SA Sentral project and equipped with 19 retail units and four lifts per tower, is offered at prices starting from RM351,000 per unit.
It is located in a strategic area that integrates all aspects of a modern commercial hub, targeting young families and single individuals, and is suitable as a future investment asset that promises good returns.
"We must bring value to this project, and one of the values we offer to customers is the design.
"In addition, Linkar 52 is located within one to two kilometres of a hospital, and is also close to a university, a lake, a mosque, and various eateries, all of which are key factors that appeal to buyers," he said.
