Location: Tiger Lane, Ipoh Town
What we can confirm about the address, and why each point matters when you decide.
| Fact | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Raffles 188 is on Tiger Lane, in Ipoh Town. | You are buying into Ipoh’s established city centre, not a township still being built out — the roads, shops and services around it already exist. |
| The developer describes a 3-minute link to the golf club and polo ground. | Recreation is close by. It is the developer’s own figure, so check the route yourself when you view. |
| Ipoh Town has restaurants, cafés, healthcare and daily conveniences in the surrounding area. | Everyday errands and medical appointments should not need a long drive — relevant for own stay and for older buyers. |
| 188 units in a single tower. | All owners share the same lifts and common areas, so ask how many lifts serve the tower and what the RM0.33 per sq ft maintenance fee covers. |
We have not listed distances, travel times or named nearby amenities because we have not verified them for this address. Tell me where you work or study and I will check the actual route.

From RM317,205 for selected available units. The price differs by layout, floor and unit position, and changes as units sell, so ask for the current price of the specific unit before you budget. The current promotion includes the built-in cabinetry for every unit type.
What would the monthly instalment be for Raffles 188?
Roughly RM1,213 a month on RM317,205 with a 10% down payment over 35 years at around 3.7%. This is an estimate, not a loan offer — your margin, tenure and rate are set by the bank. Change any of the numbers on the instalment calculator.
How much cash do I need to buy Raffles 188?
The main upfront item is the 10% down payment, about RM31,721 at the starting price, less whatever the booking fee already covers. Stamp duty and legal fees come on top where they apply. Work out your own figure on the upfront cost calculator.
Where is Raffles 188 located?
Tiger Lane, Ipoh Town, Perak — in Ipoh’s city centre rather than an outlying township. The developer describes it as a 3-minute link to the golf club and polo ground.
What unit types are currently available at Raffles 188?
Two layouts are currently available through our listing: Type C — 530 sqft, 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and Type A — 712 sqft, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. Other layouts may have sold out or may no longer be available.
How big are the available units at Raffles 188?
530 sqft (Type C) and 712 sqft (Type A) built-up. Both floor plans are on this page; the dimensions are the developer’s and subject to final survey.
How many bedrooms and bathrooms does Raffles 188 have?
It depends on the layout: Type C has 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, and Type A has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Not every unit is a 2-bedroom.
Is Raffles 188 freehold or leasehold?
Leasehold. What matters is the number of years remaining on the lease, because that is what a bank values against and what a future buyer inherits — confirm it from the title details before you book.
When will Raffles 188 be completed?
Vacant possession is estimated for 2027 Q3. That is the developer’s target, not a guaranteed date — check when the SPA completion period starts and the late-delivery compensation terms.
What facilities does Raffles 188 have?
We have not verified the facilities list, so we do not publish one here. Ask for the developer’s brochure or the SPA schedule, which sets out the common facilities and where they are in the tower.
What is the maintenance fee for Raffles 188?
RM0.33 per sq ft. On the available layouts that works out to about RM175 a month for 530 sqft and RM235 a month for 712 sqft. The sinking fund is charged separately — confirm the final figures in the developer’s quotation or the SPA.
How many car parks does Raffles 188 provide?
Most units come with 1 car park; selected units come with 2. The allocation depends on the specific unit, so confirm how many bays come with yours in the developer’s quotation or the SPA before you book.
Is Raffles 188 suitable for first-time buyers?
It can be. At RM317,205 it sits under the RM500,000 ceiling for the first-home stamp duty exemption for eligible Malaysian citizens. Weigh that against the leasehold tenure and the 2027 Q3 completion, which means no move-in before then.
Is Raffles 188 suitable for own stay or investment?
For own stay, the 1-bedroom Type C suits a single person or a couple, and the 2-bedroom Type A a small household; there is no 3-bedroom layout currently available. For investment, we have no verified rental or resale data for Raffles 188, so we do not project rent or returns — check comparable rents in Ipoh Town before relying on rental income.
What should I consider before buying Raffles 188?
Check the years remaining on the lease; the 2027 Q3 completion estimate; which layout and floor are still available and at what price; exactly what the built-in cabinetry package covers; whether your unit comes with 1 or 2 car parks; the maintenance fee (RM0.33 per sq ft) and sinking fund in the SPA; and your loan eligibility before you pay a booking fee.
