New launch projects in Cheras 2026: all 18 condos and landed homes still selling, from RM298,000, sorted by MRT distance and KPKT status

All 18, cheapest first. "From" is the net price of the smallest unit type on our project page in October 2026, after the developer package; it is not a typical unit. Price per square foot (psf) is that from-price divided by that smallest unit, so it is the entry psf, not the project average.

The second table is the part the brochure does not show: how far along the build is, the nearest station by straight line, and what KPKT's public TEDUH register records for each project. KPKT is the housing ministry; its register lists every licensed project with the number of units the developer has reported sold and whether the project is on schedule, behind, or on the Sick list.

Sold counts are what the developer reported to KPKT as at early October 2026, so a project showing close to 100% may only have returned or developer-held units left. Status wording is KPKT's classification, not our opinion of any developer.

Registered resale transactions from 2024 onward for 33 high-rise buildings within about 3.5 km of the Cheras centre (compiled by Affirm Plus Research) have a median of RM413 psf; the cheaper quarter of buildings sits around RM374 psf and the dearer quarter around RM507 psf. The median entry psf across the 15 new high-rise launches above is RM730 psf. 14 of them start above the dearer quarter of the subsale market and 0 start at or below the subsale median.

The two numbers are not the same thing. The subsale figure is what buyers paid for real, usually older, units; the new-launch figure is a developer's net price for the smallest layout in a building that may not exist yet. The gap is the price of newness, the defect warranty and the facilities, and it is also the number you must earn back if you resell in the first few years. The buildings below are the ones with the most registered deals since 2024, so they are the resale benchmark a valuer will look at.

If the new launch you like is priced well above the dearer quarter of subsale, ask what in the building justifies it: a station at the door, a freehold title in a leasehold suburb, or a genuinely better location. If nothing does, a two-year-old subsale unit nearby may be the better buy. The detailed price study is in new launch vs subsale.

You want the MRT at the door. The Connaught One (freehold, RM509,900 for 452 sq ft, 100 m from Taman Connaught MRT, 1,225 of 1,334 sold, listed behind schedule), Sunway Cochrane (freehold, RM842,000, 60 m from Cochrane MRT, 690 of 1,296 sold), Binastra Cochrane (freehold, RM721,800, 100 m from Cochrane, keys 2031 and recorded as not started) and Alderwood Residence (RM677,000, 450 m from Maluri MRT, 186 units) are the station projects. They are also the most expensive psf in Cheras, because the station is the product.

You want the lowest price. Maxim D'Parc in Alam Damai (RM298,000 for 580 sq ft, keys 2030, 350 of 1,116 sold), Tiara Vista (freehold, RM428,000 for 852 sq ft, 624 of 662 sold, behind schedule) and Rio Cheras South in Balakong (freehold, RM482,100, keys 2029) are the entry tier, all a drive from any station. PSV1 (completed, RM513,000) and PSV2 (RM550,000, 1,500 units) at Bandar Tasik Selatan are the budget options with an LRT 600 to 700 m away.

You want a completed building. Emerald 9 (freehold, 500 m from Taman Suntex MRT, RM493,000), PSV1, Akasa (freehold, completed 2021, RM553,888) and EkoCheras (freehold, completed 2017, RM850,000, 1,018 of 1,516 sold) can be walked today. For landed, The Courtyard in Alam Damai (freehold, completed, RM1,450,990, 32 of 62 sold) is the one with keys in hand.

Think twice about D'Heights @ Cheras South: it is the cheapest landed home on the list at RM478,000 and freehold, but KPKT has it on the Sick list with 127 of 176 units sold, so read what the Sick list means and ask about the certificate of completion before you treat the price as a bargain. Sunway Velocity 3 (RM662,000, 1,604 units, 1,538 sold) and The Maison 23 (landed, RM1,775,000) are also recorded as behind schedule. Which side of the border each project is on, and why it matters for tax and schemes, is in is Cheras worth buying; resale prices by building are in what Cheras buyers actually paid.

Three things, in order, and we do all three for you free if you send us the project name.

1. The KPKT licence and status. Every project above is in the register, but licences and sales permits expire and get renewed; a project marked behind schedule or on the Sick list needs a conversation about the revised date and your rights. Run the name through our free project check, or read what TEDUH records.
2. The net price, the loan and the cash. The from-price above is after the developer package. Ask which price the bank will value against, because the loan margin is calculated on the valuation, not the brochure. The price list explained and the cash you actually need cover this. Under Schedule H you pay 10% on signing and the rest by construction stage: the stages.
3. Density, lifts and the monthly fee. A block with over a thousand units shares its lifts, pool and car park ramps with a small town; how to read density and maintenance fees and sinking fund tell you what that costs you every month from the day you get the keys.

Our 12 red flags list is the longer checklist; the show unit visit checklist is for the day you go to the gallery.
