Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia

Nestled in the central region of Malaysia's peninsula, Negeri Sembilan, often referred to as NS, is a state that adjoins Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. With a population of approximately 1.1 million people, it can be viewed as a suburb of the Greater Kuala Lumpur metropolitan area. The daily commute for work and study into Greater KL is a common practice among the NS populace, made convenient by the KL-Seremban Highway and the KTM Komuter trains.

In the 15th century, NS became a settlement for the Minangkabau people who migrated from Sumatra. This community brought with them a distinct architectural style, characterized by large houses called "rumah gadang" with buffalo horn-shaped roofs. The Minangkabau influence extends to dance and culinary delights, with the much-loved Rendang dish tracing its origins back to this group. NS also boasts renowned beach resorts in Port Dickson, contributing to its appeal.

The real estate market in NS offers more affordable properties compared to the neighbouring urban sprawls of Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. Consequently, many individuals choose to reside in Seremban, NS's capital, and commute daily to work or study in surrounding cities. NS's central region also serves as a popular location for holiday apartments and bungalows among Greater KL's urban residents, particularly in the resort town of Port Dickson.

The following shows the residential property transactions in NS over the last few years:

Similar to Kuala Lumpur, the state imposes a minimum purchase price of RM1 million for property acquisitions by foreigners. No additional curbs or taxes have been implemented at the state level beyond those established by the Federal government. The main property investment hotspots within NS are Bandar Sri Sendayan, Port Dickson, Putra Nilai, and Seremban 2.

December 2018 marked a pivotal moment for NS with the official launch of the Malaysia Vision Valley 2.0 (MVV 2.0). This expansive development plan, covering 379,087 acres (153,411 hectares) across the Port Dickson and Seremban districts, aims to extend the scope of Greater Kuala Lumpur. MVV 2.0, as part of the National Physical Plan (NPP), has been designated as one of the 17 Promoted Development Zones to receive national-level priority, as disclosed in a press release from Sime Darby Property Berhad, the project's master developer. MVV 2.0 is poised to act as an economic catalyst for the 11th Malaysia Plan (11MP).

Good place for privacy and away from traffic. Need more development on shop lots cuz need to drive quite far. Got industrial area nearby but doesnt disturb the serenity of the place however.

This area is very suitable for families as its surrounded by primary and secondary school nearby and easy access to town of Negeri Sembilan and KL. Good security and management system!

Good neighbourhood with nice and friendly neighbour. Cleanliness can be improved on certain areas.

Quite old building thus old facilities. Security is good. Lift keeps break down and management take time to repair.

The area needs a little more upkeeping and proper road/street signs. The entrance is near the corner so have to be careful during turn. All in all, love the ambience, the neighbourhood is shrouded with hills and greeneries.

The area is low density with only 5 houses built in each acre. Giving residents a private feeling with an amazing view. Good security, good management.

Good place for families. Got shops and dobi within walking distance. Good community but area around the shop lots can be quite congested during weekends if got event at nearby hall.

The location is amazing, love the scenery. Well designed structure and design. Quick, near to Seremban town and close to highways.

Visited here once, nice lake and swimming pool view, but lift maintenance very poor.

Quite convenient place to stay. A service apartment with guard. Lots of attraction nearby and everything can be found within short drive.

Winnie

Even though the area can be crowded, there are enough parking bays. Maintenance work, especially lifts, should really be carried out more often.

Huge unit with nice lake view. Ample parking spaces. The staff and management there are friendly and very helpful.

Previously used to be a resort, now apartment. usually looks abandoned during weekdays but crowded during weekends. Very homey and peaceful in my opinion.

The backgate of this unit leads to the beach. Very quiet place and quite eerie. There's barely anybody and it looks very rundown. U can count how many cars each block has.

It is a low-occupancy building, but it has tight security and a clean pool. Good place to relax.

It is very near to Politeknik PD. Mostly tenanted by students of Poli PD and families which some of them are the staff in the university. Good neighbourhood with easy access to the beach and other amenities.

Price abit on the high side. Not much maintenance done to upkeep the place and cleanliness can be improved. The place is pretty spacious with amazing sea view.

Despite the eerie exterior, the interior is clean. The area is quiet, but looks abandoned and isolated. I don't recommend for solo traveller.

Very rundown place. Cant access to the beach from here. Have to drive to the beach, amenities and foods. Very spooky at night too.

Good neighbourhood. Easy access to beach from here. Amenities can be found within short drive. Walking distance to the hospital too.

Personally, very overrated. Not much attraction from here and the food available here is average but expensive. Room facilities very outdated and cleanliness needs to be improved.

Dirty and need serious upkeeping..but the pool is great and the view is amazing.

Good beach and sea view. But the service was poor, the facilities maintenance, the cleanliness, the restaurant offers...

Internet connection here is bad eventhough wifi is available. The pool is quite deep for kids (1.2m) need adult supervision. Easily accessible to grocery store like tesco and main attractions nearby.

Sound proof wasn't good. Awakened by kids playing outside early morning. But palm mall is walking distance from here.

Winnie

Many attractions here, theres also foodtruck and carboot sale here on weekend nights. Very lively at night.

Very crowded here because there's many shops surrounding Giant. Opposite from here got Tesco. There's also ample parking spaces.

The location is near to Mydin. So easy to find food there. Also the location is good cuz very quiet.

Abandoned place, but got few workshops and office there. Foreign workers live upstairs. Very isolated and not safe.

Eventhough far from the city centre, everything is still within driving distance to all the needs. Very friendly neighbourhood, suitable for family with kids.

New developed area. Nearby from here got Mesamall and Inti College. Amenities can be found within short drive only.

Lots of attraction here, but few shops at the back is empty and dark at night. Only front row shops got many attractions. Walking distance to Dataran Nilai.

The neighbourhood is gated and guarded. Very quiet and great neighbourfood for families or newlyweds away from city havoc.

The landscape is nice here, misty at night but problem with lift everyday and management is very unresponsive.

Good location, surrounded by trees, quite isolated from city life but still accessible to mostly everywhere. Got few parks nearby and amenities can be found within short drive. A gated and guarded neighbourhood, can see many police car patrolling the area at random times.

There are many food stalls along the roadside that causes traffic sometimes. Other than that, choices of food in the area is the best. Friendly neighbourhood, everybody seems to know each other.

Cosy gated apartment on hilltop of Seremban Town. Ample parking space and amenities such as banks, gas station, hospital and KTM can be found in short drive.

The flat looks old cuz the exterior looks unkept. Rubbish is not collected but the overall neighbourhood is okay. Strategically located with so many access.

Hard to find a carpark here, people usually double park and its hard to get out in the morning.

Winnie

Great neighbourhood but cars are parked on both sides and sometimes hard to pass through, especially when theres car from the other side.

Very calm and peaceful place. A gated and guarded neighbourhood. Suitable for families with kids.

Winnie

No rubbish collection around the area here. Residents are throwing garbage along the side of the road, causing bad smell and increasing numbers of stray dogs in the neighbourhood. The allocated rubbish disposal area is located too far from here.

Nice house and nice quiet environment. Suitable for people who likes privacy. Plus, amenities can be found here within short drive.

Very nice housing area, the house is well built and the surrounding area is nice. They got the best community park everyone should go visit.

A gated and guarded neighbourhood. Pretty isolated, and involve 10-15mins to amenities. The area is not yet updated much on Waze.

Good place to own a house. A lovely and nice environment. Easy to access to LEKAS and PLUS highway from here. Plus, good security as well.

Not a gated and guarded neighbourhood. Nice and calm place to live. If you want to run away from congested and hectic area, this will suit you. Good housing area with all the facilities, 5 star for development!

I'm a frequent here It has a very nice swimming pool. Lot of parking place. This place is once run down because of the financial crisis but now it looks better. Certainly an improvement. Looking at the price of rental this place is definetly good for investor to buy cheap unit and rent it out but need to prepair money to repair as many unit looks abandon.

Latest update: Now got new lift, it seems this place is slowly getting better maybe because many empty unit now is being into short term rental. So the owner paid maintenance fee. We can see some improvement like new fence and bridge at the lake.
