Areas & Comparison
What new launches actually cost across 9 areas of Ipoh — entry price, top end and tenure mix. Every figure here is pulled from the live project data on this site, so it does not go out of date.
Quick answer. Across the 39 projects I currently cover, Ipoh new launches start from RM170,000 and run past RM2 million at the top. Botani has the lowest entry point; Ipoh Town reaches the highest. Most of what is available sits between RM300,000 and RM800,000.

Starting prices for the entry unit type in each project. The top-end column reflects the most expensive project currently listed in that area, not a ceiling for the area itself. Click any area for the individual projects.
The "from" column is about property type as much as location. An area whose current launches happen to be terrace houses will show a lower entry than one with bungalows on the list, even where the underlying land is comparable. It tells you what is available right now, not what the land is worth.
A wide gap between "from" and "up to" means variety. Areas spanning several hundred thousand ringgit have a genuine mix of property types, so there is likely something at your budget. A narrow range means the area currently has one kind of product.
Tenure is not evenly spread. Several areas here are entirely freehold or entirely leasehold on current launches, which can decide the area for you if tenure is a firm requirement. What that actually changes is covered in the freehold vs leasehold guide.
If you are working from a number rather than a location, these filtered pages are the faster route:
Not sure what your budget actually is? Work the instalment on the monthly calculator, then the day-one cash on the upfront cost calculator. Those two together tell you far more than a price ceiling does.
I do not forecast where Ipoh prices are going. Doing that properly needs transaction data over time, and doing it improperly is how buyers end up making decisions on someone's guess. What this page gives you is what current launches actually cost today. For historical transacted prices, NAPIC and Brickz are the sources to look at.
Price is one input. The area selection guide works through the others — commute, schools, how established the neighbourhood is, and what you actually want from the place.
Prices are starting prices for the entry unit type and change with the developer's current package. Confirm the figure for the specific unit before budgeting around it.

Across the 39 new launch projects I currently cover, prices start from RM170,000 and run up past RM2 million for larger bungalows in established city addresses. The bulk of what is available sits in the RM300,000 to RM800,000 range. Which area you are looking at moves that figure more than anything else.
On my current list, Botani has the lowest entry point at RM170,000. Entry price is only part of the picture though — the cheapest area is not automatically the best value once you factor in what is around it and what the house itself gives you.
Ipoh Town reaches the highest on my current list, at RM2,180,000 for the top end. That reflects larger bungalows on established addresses rather than a general price level across the whole area — the same area also has options well below that.
I do not publish price trend forecasts, because honest ones need transaction data over time rather than listing prices, and anything else is guesswork dressed up as analysis. What I can tell you is what current launches are actually priced at, which is what this page shows. For historical transacted prices, NAPIC and Brickz are the sources worth looking at.
RM500,000 covers a good spread of new launch terrace houses and reaches into semi-Ds depending on the area. It is also the ceiling for the full first-home stamp duty exemption, which makes it a genuinely meaningful number rather than just a round one. See the current projects under RM500k for what is available.
Mostly township maturity and what is already built around it. Established areas with schools, healthcare and shopping already in place price higher than newer areas still filling in. Property type matters as much — an area whose current launches are all terrace houses will show a lower range than one with bungalows, even if the underlying land values are similar.
Freehold generally carries a premium for a comparable house in a comparable area, though the areas themselves differ enough that a straight comparison across the table above would be misleading. Tenure is mixed across Ipoh, and several areas on my list are entirely one or the other. There is more on what the difference actually changes in the freehold vs leasehold guide.
They come from the same project data as the rest of this site and update whenever a price changes, so this page does not go stale the way a written price list would. They are starting prices for the entry unit type — the final figure depends on the specific unit, lot and package, so message me for the current price list on anything you are looking at.
