Selangor is one of Malaysia’s most populated states, and many properties in this area are being sold at skyrocketing prices. Many families, youth, and first-time homebuyers are having a hard time finding the ‘perfect home’ that fits all of these criteria – affordable, spacious and based at a strategic location.
With Rumah Selangorku (RSKU), the dream of owning your first home sweet home will finally be closer to reality.
First introduced in 2014, RSKU is designed to encourage and support developers in producing affordable houses. RSKU strives to make it imperative for developers to construct a certain amount of reasonably-priced housing units as part of their overall project.
The initiative is spearheaded by Lembaga Perumahan dan Hartanah Selangor (LPHS), which aligns with the Ministry of Housing and Local Government’s (KPKT) policy of achieving one million affordable homes by 2028.
Are you interested? Before you apply, let’s review these key facts about RSKU and the applicants’ criteria.
1) What is Rumah Selangorku (RSKU)?
Rumah Selangorku (RSKU) is an entirely different scheme from the previous ones the state government offers. It is compulsory statutory housing for developers, depending on the project’s district (mukim) and sub-district (daerah).
If, for example, a developer has developed more than 10 acres of a project in a local government or Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan (PBT) area, it would have to dedicate a certain percentage of the development to build several units of affordable houses.

5) How Do I Apply for Rumah Selangorku (RSKU)?
The Rumah Selangorku (RSKU) application is free and must be made only online at Sistem Pendaftaran Permohonan Hartanah Negeri Selangor website.
You need to set up an account on the website and then you are required to provide documentation to confirm your eligibility.
The LPHS never appointed a third party (an individual, organisation, association, or a company) as an agent for RSKU application. Action will be taken by LPHS by not granting strata title on homes found to be owned or purchased without their approval.
The compulsory documents to apply for RSKU are as follows:
- Copies of the applicant’s’ NRIC
- Birth certificates of children/dependents (if applicable)
- Copy of marriage certificate or similar documentation (if applicable)
- Confirmation letter from employer or Commissioner of Oaths for single, self-employed applicants (if applicable)
- Payslips, bank statements, or income verification from the Commissioner of Oaths (if applicable)
- Statutory declaration from Commissioner of Oaths of an unemployed spouse (if applicable)
- EPF statement (if applicable)
- Copy of utility bill
- Credit reports from the Central Credit Reference Information System (CCRIS) and/or from the Credit Tip-Off Service (CTOS)
- Applicants for RSKU are assessed based on a merit system, comparing their eligibility criteria and potential merits.
After submitting all the necessary documents, you must be a teensy-weensy bit patient and wait for confirmation. However, only successful applicants will be contacted by letter or email to confirm that they have been selected.
6) What Rules Must I Adhere to When Applying for Rumah Selangorku (RSKU)?
As the housing scheme is designed for the lower and middle-income (B40s) in Selangor, there are some ground rules that potential buyers need to adhere to:
- The property cannot be sold within five years of purchase
- The owners are not allowed to rent out the property
- Applications are active for two years
- After two years, if not successful, applicants may apply again
7) What Happens If I Turn Down a Successful Rumah Selangorku (RSKU) Application?
Applicants who reject a successful RSKU home application will be made INACTIVE for two years. After that period ends, a new application can be made.
8) What Are Rumah Selangorku (RSKU) Restrictions?
Buyers will have to adhere to a moratorium period of five years. This means that you can’t sell an RSKU property until after the five years have passed.
The terms of the moratorium are included in the offer letter to the buyer, Sale and Purchase Agreement and land title document (subject to restrictions of interest).
The moratorium period is effective from the point (date) that the Sale and Purchase Agreement is signed.
The guideline also states that after the moratorium period has ended, you may sell your property but with required approval from the state government.
