For those living in a fast-growing state or city, owning a home might be beyond one. Houses that are sold at skyrocketing prices make it infeasible for medium and low-income earners to get a foothold. In Malaysia, there are at least seven government housing schemes available for the B40 and M40 groups such as Residensi Wilayah (RUMAWIP), Perumahan 1 Malaysia (PR1MA), and MyHome Affordable Housing Scheme (MyHome).
Aware of the arising issue, each state government has come up with its affordable housing scheme to provide opportunities for Anak Negeri to own a home. The State of Selangor, for example, has already introduced Rumah Selangorku (RSKU) which is a buyer-friendly housing scheme. The state of Johor is no exception as it offers affordable housing at very attractive prices!
The state government has introduced the Johor Affordable Housing Scheme (RMMJ) or the Rumah Mampu Biaya Johor (RMB) scheme. This initiative is specifically designed to help medium- and low-income residents of Johor purchase homes at reasonable prices.
