Hello everybody.
I'm from Italy, planning to retire in Malaysia in the future and therefore thinking of buying a house there (also as an investment, for the time being). Do you know the limits for foreigners to buy a property in Perak? 1 million ringgit, 500.000 or less? I've read different info on different web pages...
Thank you very much for helping me!

you should retire in Taiping, Perak instead of ipoh.

My suggestion. Taiping is a nice place

Dear Claudia,

In Perak, the minimum purchase price of a residential property for foreigners is RM500,000.

It varies from one state to another. For example in Kuala Lumpur it is RM1 mil, Selangor is RM2 mil and Penang is RM1 mil. But if a foreigner is under the MM2H program, the minimum purchase price is reduced to RM500,000 in Penang.

Thank you and best regards.
