Question 1

Is The Manhattan Bukit Bintang freehold or leasehold?

Accepted Answer

The Manhattan Bukit Bintang is freehold, which is a genuine scarcity in a heavily leasehold Golden Triangle. Freehold title is a core part of its long-run appeal.

Question 2

What is the nearest MRT or LRT station to The Manhattan Bukit Bintang and how far is it?

Accepted Answer

Monorail Raja Chulan (MR7) is 314m straight-line, with MRT Bukit Bintang (KG18A) 577m and LRT Dang Wangi (KJ12) 931m straight-line. That multi-line walkability makes a car-free Golden Triangle lifestyle realistic.

Question 3

How much do units at The Manhattan Bukit Bintang cost and what sizes are available?

Accepted Answer

Prices run from RM1,423,000 up to RM1,686,000, across 732 to 1,109 sqft in 1- to 2-bedroom layouts, including 16 upper-floor loft units. This is a boutique 129-unit tower, so stock is limited.

Question 4

How much is the estimated monthly instalment for The Manhattan Bukit Bintang?

Accepted Answer

The estimated repayment starts from about RM5,903 a month on a 90% loan over 35 years at ~4.3% p.a., though your actual figure depends on your loan profile. Our notes put maintenance at around RM0.40 psf, so add that for your true carry.

Question 5

Who is the developer of The Manhattan Bukit Bintang and are they reliable?

Accepted Answer

It is developed by Singapore's United Engineers group, through its Malaysian subsidiary. The Manhattan is the group's first and only Malaysian development to date, so there is little local track record to walk through, which makes your own inspection of the completed building and its management more important, not less.

Question 6

Is The Manhattan Bukit Bintang completed or still under construction?

Accepted Answer

It is completed (around 2017) and was sold under HDA, so you can inspect the delivered unit and building rather than a render. Look closely at the lifts, lobby and facade upkeep, since refurbishment costs in a 129-unit scheme are shared among few owners.

Question 7

Is The Manhattan Bukit Bintang a good buy and who is it best suited to?

Accepted Answer

Its honest appeal is exclusivity and location: only 129 units means far less internal competition than a mega-tower, in a walk-to-everything Bukit Bintang position you can inspect today. The cautions are that from RM1,423,000 it sits above the RM1,183,000 median across the 7 Bukit Bintang projects on this site, facilities are thin, and it competes with newer stock. It suits a prestige own-stayer or a landlord who values scarcity.
