Completed serviced apartments in Medini, from studios to dual-key units

Grand Medini Iskandar Puteri

Grand Medini was finished in 2018: 672 serviced apartments spread over three towers along Jalan Medini Utara 8, Iskandar Puteri. Homes range from a 474 sq ft studio to three-bedroom units of up to 1,119 sq ft, and the Level 9 deck has a 50-metre lap pool. From RM392,000 (gross).

Grand Medini is already built, so you can walk the corridors and look round a real unit before you commit. Grand Global Medini completed it in 2018 on 3.23 acres of leasehold land with a commercial title under the Housing Development Act; Towers A and B rise 30 levels and Tower C 33. The 672 serviced apartments run from 474 sq ft studios to three-bedroom homes of up to 1,119 sq ft, plus a 1,110 sq ft dual-key Type F. Each floor has 6 to 10 units. It suits young couples, small families and people working around Medini and EduCity; a large family may find even the biggest units tight. Johor sets RM1,000,000 as the minimum price for a foreign buyer, and every unit here is priced below that. A foreigner can therefore buy only an unsold serviced apartment from the developer, which needs approval by the State Authority and carries a levy of at least RM50,000; a resale unit from a current owner is not open to foreign buyers.

What You Get at Grand Medini

A finished serviced apartment in Medini that you can inspect today, with a wide choice of sizes and a large Level 9 facility deck.

Completed in 2018

Grand Medini received its Certificate of Fitness on 15 August 2018, so there is no construction wait, and the actual units, lifts and facilities can be inspected before you decide.

13 Layouts From 474 sq ft

Studios of 474 and 517 sq ft, one-bedroom units of 571 and 614 sq ft, two-bedroom units of 764 and 808 sq ft, three-bedroom units from 904 to 1,119 sq ft and the 1,110 sq ft dual-key Type F.

Car Parks by Unit Type

Studios come with one car park. The three-bedroom D and E types and the dual-key Type F come with two, which matters if both of you drive to work.

50-Metre Lap Pool on Level 9

The Level 9 deck has a 50-metre lap pool, an infinity-edge pool, a kids' pool, an outdoor jacuzzi, a sauna, a BBQ terrace, a children's playground, a party lawn and a maze garden.

RM 0.42 psf Monthly Fee

The maintenance fee is RM 0.42 per sq ft a month, with the sinking fund included. Units are handed over partly furnished, and the project carries Green Building certification.

Three Lifts Plus a Service Lift

Each block has three lifts and a service lift for 6 to 10 units a floor, and the development is purely residential, so the lifts are shared only by residents.

Holding Grand Medini month to month

For the starting-price unit of Grand Medini, at RM392,000, a 90% loan of RM352,800 repaid over 35 years at 4% a year, my example rate, costs about RM1,562 a month. The entry unit here, 474 sq ft, carries a service charge of about RM199 a month, sinking fund included. Budget roughly RM1,761 a month, not yet counting assessment tax or quit rent.

Tell me which unit you are considering on WhatsApp, +60 17-880 2526, and I will work it out for that unit.

The 4% is an example rate rather than a quote, and what you sign for is priced unit by unit and floor by floor. For a different loan, scale it up or down with the table below.

Work out your own instalment

The bank's formula is monthly payment = P × r ÷ [1 − (1 + r)−n]. P is the amount borrowed, r is the yearly rate ÷ 12, and n is the number of monthly payments: 420 over 35 years.

Most new home loans float. The rate is the Standardised Base Rate (SBR) plus a spread the bank sets for you, and the SBR tracks the Overnight Policy Rate, which Bank Negara has held at 2.75% from 9 July 2025. At 4.5% instead of 4%, that RM352,800 loan costs about RM108 more a month, and a 30-year term instead of 35 adds about RM122. If this would be your third or later home loan, the bank can lend at most 70% of the property's value.

For a RM650,000 loan at 4% over 35 years, take 6.5 × RM443: about RM2,880 a month.

Service charge and sinking fund

The service charge at Grand Medini is RM0.42 a month for each square foot, and that already counts the sinking fund. Under the Strata Management Act 2013, the sinking fund is at least 10% of the service charge and is kept for major repairs.

Across the 125 high-rise projects I track, the middle figure is RM0.40 per sq ft. Grand Medini is above it, about RM9 a month more on the smallest unit than a building charging the middle figure.
