One Equine Owners: Sell or Rent After VP? Don’t Just Look at the SPA Price!

With more owners receiving the keys to One Equine Phase 2, one question keeps coming up:

“Should I sell now, or should I rent it out?”

Many owners think it’s simple:

“I bought it at RM330,000. If I sell it at RM330,000, I won’t lose money.”

Unfortunately, property investment isn’t that straightforward.

Using a One Equine 452 sqft Dual-Key (2 Bed 2 Bath) as an example, here’s how I usually look at it. (Figures below are for illustration only. Every owner’s situation is different.)

Example

* SPA Price: RM330,000
* Developer Rebate: 10%
* 90% Bank Loan (based on SPA Price)
* High Floor
* Facing Facilities
* Bare Unit

If you sell at RM330,000…

Many people only compare:

Buy RM330k → Sell RM330k = No Loss

But don’t forget these costs:

✔️ Real estate agency fee
✔️ Legal fees for the sale
✔️ Outstanding bank loan
✔️ Progressive interest paid before VP
✔️ Mortgage interest after VP

After deducting these expenses, the amount you actually receive may be much lower than expected.

What about RPGT?

Another cost that many owners overlook is Real Property Gains Tax (RPGT).

For properties sold within the RPGT holding period, the tax is based on your chargeable gain, not simply the selling price.

For example:

* Buying at RM330k and selling at RM330k generally means there is little or no capital gain to be taxed.
* However, if you sell at a higher price, RPGT may become part of your overall calculation depending on your actual chargeable gain and allowable deductions.

That’s why a higher selling price doesn’t necessarily mean higher profit.

So… should you sell or rent?

For a 452 sqft Dual-Key 2R2B, the rental potential is one of its biggest strengths.

Example:

Room 1 ≈ RM1,000/month
Room 2 ≈ RM1,000/month

Potential total rental:
Around RM2,000/month

For investors, this unit isn’t just about resale value.

It’s also about generating consistent rental cash flow.

My thoughts

If you:

* Need immediate cash,
* Have another investment opportunity,
* Or don’t wish to manage tenants,

Selling may be the right decision.

However, if:

* You can afford to hold,
* The rental demand remains healthy,
* And you’re investing for long-term cash flow,

Renting out the property could be the better strategy.

Every owner’s financial situation is different.

Before deciding to sell, don’t just ask:

“How much can I sell it for?”

Instead, ask:

“After all the costs, how much will I actually keep?”

That’s the number that really matters.

🚨 Attention One Equine Block C & D Owners!
Kyane's Real Unit Review #1 | 450 sqft Studio Layout

Why do some 450 sqft studios attract tenants immediately, while others stay vacant or end up lowering the rental?

I've recently reviewed several real 450 sqft studio units in One Equine Phase 1. I hope this analysis helps Block C & D owners studio is actually more challenging than furnishing a 2 or 3-bedroom unit.

Why?
A 2 or 3-bedroom unit naturally separates the living room, bedrooms and dining area. Even if the furniture arrangement isn't perfect, the layout still works.

A studio is completely different.
The bed, sofa, wardrobe, dining table and workspace all share the same space. Furniture size, placement, colour palette and even the amount of empty space will affect a tenant's first impression.

Today, I'm not comparing renovation budgets. Instead, I'm looking at why some units feel like a home, while others simply feel like a furnished room.

🥇 1st Place (9.6/10)
This is my favourite layout.
Not because it has the most expensive furniture, but because it makes the best use of space.
✔ The bed is placed deeper inside the unit.
✔ The sofa naturally separates the sleeping area from the living area.
✔ Plenty of open space makes the unit feel much larger.
✔ Without building any walls, the unit naturally creates an entrance, workspace, bedroom, living area and balcony.
The soft colour palette (wood, beige, white and grey), together with simple decorations like cushions, throws and plants, creates a warm "home feeling" instead of looking like a typical rental unit.
The only downside is the smaller wardrobe, which may not be enough for long-term tenants.

🥈 2nd Place (8.9/10)
Personally, I would still choose this unit because of its practicality.
The oversized mirrored wardrobe provides excellent storage, and the track lighting creates a modern atmosphere at night.
However, from a design perspective, the wardrobe is simply too dominant.
The first thing you notice is the furniture instead of the space.
For a 450 sqft studio, oversized furniture can easily make the unit feel smaller and more crowded.
Furniture should be functional, not overwhelming.

🥉 3rd Place (7.8/10)
This unit isn't bad, but it lacks character.
The furniture is there, but it feels like everything was simply placed inside without much planning.
The furniture quality is more basic, the curtains could be improved, and overall it feels more like an investment property than a comfortable home.
A feature wall, better soft furnishings and a more consistent colour scheme would make a huge difference.

My Thoughts
One interesting observation as a property agent: The highest-rated unit probably didn't spend the most money. Instead, it focused on furniture placement and space planning.

The sofa creates a natural divider, while a study table, side table and simple decorations transform the studio into a space that feels like it has a living room, bedroom and work corner.
That's the mindset every One Equine owner should have.

Tenants are not just renting furniture. They're renting the feeling of coming home. With hundreds of similar 450 sqft studios entering the rental market soon, the units that stand out won't necessarily be the ones with the biggest renovation budget.

They'll be the ones with the best layout, furniture placement, colour coordination and overall atmosphere.

Good design doesn't always cost more—but it often helps your unit rent out faster and achieve a better rental price.

Owners at One Equine Blocks C & D are asking:
"What is the approximate rental rate right now?"

There is no standard answer yet, but we can look to Phase 1 (Blocks A & B for reference.

Since the handover of keys for Blocks C & D has only just begun, many owners are still waiting for their appointments. For those who have already received their keys, the following steps still lie ahead:
✅ Defect inspection
✅ Compiling the defect list
✅ Submitting the list to the developer for repairs
✅ Waiting for repairs to be completed
✅ Only then can they proceed with renovations, purchasing furniture, and preparing the unit for rent.

The entire process could take several weeks or even longer. However, the real factor to watch isn't the rental rate—it's the competition. Many people may not realize this yet...

One Equine comprises a total of 2,819 units across four blocks.
📍 Phase 1 (Already occupied)
Block A: 865 Studio units (450 sq. ft.)
Block B: 526 units with 2–4 bedrooms (617–1,055 sq. ft.)
📍 Phase 2 (Handover just beginning)
Block C: 537 units with 2–4 bedrooms (617–1,055 sq. ft.)
Block D: 891 Studio units (450 sq. ft.)

In the coming months, an increasing number of units will hit the rental market, this means your competition isn't just one or two other landlords, but hundreds of them.

So, what should you do now?

1. After receiving the developer's email and registered post, complete all remaining payments as soon as possible. If you haven't yet paid the Progress Billing, Stakeholder Sum, or Miscellaneous Charges, it's recommended to do so promptly to get the keys sooner. The earlier you start, the more time you'll have.

2. After getting the keys, don't rush into renovations.
First, conduct a Defect Check – it's recommended to hire an experienced inspection team to carefully check the walls, floor tiles, doors and windows, plumbing and electrical systems, leaks, and other issues, and submit a Defect List to the developer as soon as possible. These repairs are the developer's responsibility, so try to complete them before renovations to avoid having to tear down your own paid renovations later.

3. Luxury renovations aren't necessary, but they must have "quality."
Many homeowners believe that spending RM40,000 on renovations will guarantee a higher rent, but that's not necessarily true. Tenants typically value the following:

✔ Overall cleanliness and brightness
✔ Uniform furniture color scheme
✔ Sufficient storage space
✔ Fully equipped with air conditioning, water heater, refrigerator, and washing machine
✔ Convenient internet installation
✔ Comfortable natural light in rooms and living room
These are often more important than expensive decorations.

4. Don't spend your budget on things tenants don't care about.
If your budget is limited, I would suggest prioritizing investments in:

✅ Air conditioning (living room + bedroom)
✅ Refrigerator
✅ Washing machine
✅ Water heater
✅ Wardrobe
✅ Bed frame + a good mattress
✅ Curtains

Complex ceiling designs, excessive woodwork, and expensive lighting fixtures don't necessarily translate into corresponding rental returns.
Spending your budget on areas tenants use daily usually yields a higher return on investment.

5. Plan your rental in advance; don't wait until everything is finished to start.
During renovations, you can start researching market rents, preparing photos, and planning your rental strategy. Many tenants look for apartments well in advance; if you wait until everything is complete to start listing, you may miss the first wave of demand.

The rental market at One Equine is sure to be bustling in the future. But the units that are rented out quickly and well are not necessarily the most expensive in terms of renovation, but rather the ones that are best prepared, have the clearest positioning, and the most reasonable pricing.

🚨 One Equine Blocks C & D Are Entering the "Pre-Rental Phase"

I’ve recently noticed a significant shift in the One Equine & Equine Residence area. Blocks C & D are now entering the key handover stage.

Some owners have already completed their appointments and received their keys, while others are still waiting for the developer to schedule a time.

But the key takeaway is this:
❗ The rental market has actually started to "kick off early."

This is a crucial stage. It is a unique period:
✔ Supply hasn't fully hit the market yet,
✔ but tenants are already making inquiries,
✔ market rental rates are still taking shape,
✔ and competition hasn't fully intensified yet.

That means now is the phase where "early movers" have the advantage.

Based on current inquiries:
1- 2 bedroom units are in highest demand. Whether it's small families or students, demand for 2-bedroom units keeps rising. Many people are already asking:

When can I move in? Is it fully furnished? What is the approximate rent?

This shows the market is already "warming up."

If you have just received your keys, or are about to, feel free to contact me to find out:

the current market rental range for your unit,
whether it's a good time to list it for rent,

and how to prepare it to rent out faster.

I can help you with a quick market analysis.
