Princess Cove RNF Phase 3: the monthly bill, line by line

The starting-price unit at Princess Cove RNF Phase 3 is RM 430,000. Borrow 90% of it, RM 387,000, over 35 years at 4% (an example rate) and the instalment comes to about RM 1,714 a month. The smallest unit here, 314 sq ft, adds about RM 132 in maintenance, sinking fund included, so plan on about RM 1,846 a month before assessment tax and quit rent.

Tell me the unit you have in mind on WhatsApp, +60 17-279 8932, and I will work out its own figures.

4% is an example rate, not a bank's quote, and the price you sign depends on the unit and the floor. For another loan amount, scale it with the table further down.

The example, line by line

ItemPer monthHow it is worked out
Loan instalmentRM 1,71490% of RM 430,000, 35 years, 4% a year
Maintenance feeRM 132314 sq ft × RM 0.42
Sinking fundIncluded in the fee10% of the maintenance charge, the legal minimum
Assessment taxBilled twice a yearLocal council: annual value × rate
Quit rentBilled once a yearDue 1 January
Each month, before the two taxesRM 1,846Instalment plus maintenance

How the instalment is worked out

Instalment = loan × r × (1 + r)n ÷ [(1 + r)n − 1], where r is the yearly rate divided by 12 and n is the number of months: 420 for 35 years.

New floating-rate home loans are priced as the Standardised Base Rate (SBR) plus the bank's own spread, and the SBR follows Bank Negara's Overnight Policy Rate, 2.75% since 9 July 2025. So 4% is an example, not a quote. On the RM 387,000 loan above, 4.5% instead of 4% adds about RM 118 a month, and 30 years instead of 35 adds about RM 134. A third or later home loan in your own name is capped at 70% of the property's value.

Every RM 100,000 borrowed4.0%4.5%5.0%
35 yearsRM 443RM 473RM 505
30 yearsRM 477RM 507RM 537

To use it, multiply by your loan in hundreds of thousands: RM 450,000 at 4% over 35 years is 4.5 × RM 443, about RM 1,994 a month.

Maintenance fee and sinking fund

Maintenance at Princess Cove RNF Phase 3 runs RM 0.42 a square foot each month, sinking fund included. The Strata Management Act 2013 sets the sinking fund at no less than 10% of the maintenance charge, kept for repainting, lift replacement and other big repairs.

That is above the RM 0.40 median of the 107 high-rise projects on this site: on the 314 sq ft unit, about RM 6 a month more than a building charging the median. The fee is the cost that stays for as long as you own the unit, so it is the line worth comparing between projects.

Foreign buyers

Johor's line for a foreign buyer is RM 1,000,000. Princess Cove RNF Phase 3 runs from RM 430,000 to RM 5,200,000, so the units at RM 1,000,000 or more clear it the usual way. Each purchase needs State Authority approval. Under RM 1,000,000 there is a second route: with State Authority approval, the developer may sell these commercial-title serviced apartments to a foreigner directly, for a state levy of at least RM 50,000 plus RM 2,000 per title to apply. A resale purchase cannot use it.
