Malaysia property planning tools
Five buyer calculators.
Estimate affordability, financing, legal charges, transfer costs and the Johor foreign-purchaser levy. Select the buyer type first because several calculations differ.
Debt Service Ratio
Enter Malaysian monthly income and commitments.
(Existing commitments + new instalment) ÷ recognised income. For reference only; final approval is subject to each bank's credit review, income recognition, documents and policies.
Mortgage Loan
Estimate a standard reducing-balance housing instalment.
Excludes mortgage insurance, progressive interest and bank-specific fees.
Legal Fees
Indicative SPA and loan-document legal fees under the SRO 2023 scale.
Excludes disbursements. HDA percentage depends on the prescribed schedule and transaction.
MOT Legal Fee & Stamp Duty
Estimate transfer-document legal fees and stamp duty using the higher property value.
MOT work may overlap with earlier conveyancing scope. Ask the appointed lawyer for an itemised quotation.
Johor State Levy
This levy is intended for foreign purchasers; Malaysian buyers normally do not use this calculation.
Separate from federal stamp duty, legal fees and consent-processing disbursements. Confirm the current circular and property eligibility.
Planning estimates only, reviewed August 2026. Banks use different income-recognition, DSR, margin and age/tenure policies. Legal fees follow the general SRO 2023 scale before permitted discounts and transaction-specific HDA treatment. The 8% foreign residential transfer duty and Johor 3% levy/minimum RM30,000 require confirmation for the actual instrument, purchaser status and property. Exemptions, SST, disbursements and state-consent conditions may change.
