Rumah Selangorku Types A, B, C, D: Price, Size, and Location Differences

Rumah Selangorku (RSKU) offers four main unit types, A through D, priced between RM42,000 and RM300,000, with income ceilings that start at RM3,000 per month for Type A and rise to RM10,000 per month for Types B, C, and D. Knowing which type you qualify for before you apply saves time and prevents a wasted ballot entry.

This guide is part of the government housing schemes cluster. For broader buying mechanics, see our guide on how to buy a house in Malaysia.

What is Rumah Selangorku?

Rumah Selangorku is a state-level affordable housing programme administered by Lembaga Perumahan dan Hartanah Selangor (LPHS). It is open only to first-time buyers who reside or work in Selangor. Unlike federal schemes such as PR1MA, RSKU is tied exclusively to projects within Selangor state boundaries: locations such as Shah Alam, Petaling Jaya, Klang, Cyberjaya, Kajang, Sepang, Gombak, Selayang, and Rawang.

The scheme has gone through iterations. The current framework is often referred to as Rumah Selangorku 3.0, which tightened qualifying rules, introduced mandatory developer participation ratios, and updated price ceilings. LPHS publishes new project ballots periodically through its e-Hartanah portal.

Type A: entry-level, lowest price ceiling

Type A is the most heavily subsidised tier. Units are priced at approximately RM42,000, a level that has not changed significantly across scheme iterations because it targets households earning no more than RM3,000 per month. These are typically two-bedroom or three-bedroom low-cost flats, often with minimal finishes and shared facilities.

Who it is for. B40 households, single earners on wages below RM3,000, or couples where combined income is below the ceiling. This group often faces the starkest affordability gap relative to open-market prices in Selangor.

Practical note. Financing a RM42,000 property is possible with standard bank loans, but monthly repayments at this price point are very low, around RM180 to RM220 per month over 30 years depending on the rate. The bigger challenge for Type A applicants is meeting the bank’s Debt Service Ratio (DSR) requirements given a lower income base. See our guide on margin of finance in Malaysia for how banks calculate how much they will lend.

Type B: the most common RSKU tier

Type B units are the most widely available in active RSKU project lists, typically priced between RM85,000 and RM150,000. Built-up sizes generally fall in the 650 to 800 sq ft range, which translates to two bedrooms and one or two bathrooms. Most projects in townships such as Alam Impian, Bangi Lama, Salak Tinggi, and Kota Warisan offer Type B as the primary product.

Who it is for. Middle-income earners whose household income sits between RM3,001 and RM10,000 per month. This covers a very wide band, from a fresh graduate couple to a dual-income family with one child.

Why the band is so wide. LPHS designed Types B, C, and D to share a single upper income ceiling of RM10,000. The differentiation is by price and size, not a separate income ceiling. A household earning RM8,000 per month may apply for Type B, C, or D in the same ballot cycle depending on which project is open.

Type C: mid-tier with more space

Type C units are priced between RM150,001 and RM250,000, with typical built-up areas of 750 to 900 sq ft. At this tier you generally get three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and access to better project facilities. Type C projects tend to cluster in better-connected locations: Shah Alam, Subang, Klang, Puchong, and Cyberjaya fringe areas.

Selangorku 3.0 pricing context. Under the Rumah Selangorku 3.0 framework, some Type C launches have started from around RM114,750 to RM250,000, with LPHS-mandated developer rebates or subsidies reducing the effective purchase price below the nominal ceiling. Check each project’s ballot circular for the net price after any state contribution.

Type D: upper end of the RSKU range

Type D represents the highest tier under the Rumah Selangorku label, with units priced from RM250,001 up to approximately RM300,000. Sizes can reach 1,045 sq ft in some projects, accommodating four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Property formats at this tier include low-density condominiums and townhouses in higher-demand Selangor sub-markets.

Who should consider Type D. Dual-income households earning RM7,000 to RM10,000 per month who want more space and are willing to stretch their budget within the RSKU ceiling. At RM300,000, the loan quantum is larger, so applicants should stress-test their DSR before balloting. At a 4.5% interest rate over 35 years, a RM270,000 loan (assuming a 10% down payment on a RM300,000 unit) carries a monthly instalment of approximately RM1,250 to RM1,350.

Core eligibility rules across all types

Regardless of which type you apply for, LPHS imposes these baseline conditions (as of 2025 to 2026, based on LPHS guidelines):

Malaysian citizen. Permanent residents are not eligible.
First-time buyer. You must not currently own any residential property, anywhere in Malaysia.
Selangor residency or employment. You must be domiciled or working in Selangor.
Minimum age 18. Joint applications are permitted for married couples; the household income figure combines both incomes.
No prior RSKU unit. You cannot hold or have sold a previous RSKU unit to apply again immediately. (Eligibility to re-apply after disposal has conditions; check current LPHS rules.)

Bumiputera quota. Most RSKU projects reserve a proportion of units (commonly 50% or as mandated under the project’s land status) for Bumiputera applicants. The remaining allocation is open to all races. The ballot for each tranche is run separately. Non-Bumiputera applicants compete in the open allocation; they do not compete against Bumiputera applicants for the reserved tranche.

How location shapes which type is available

RSKU types are not uniformly distributed across Selangor. The type available in a given project depends on land cost and density:

High-density urban fringe areas (Klang Valley periphery: Salak Tinggi, Kota Warisan, Bangi Lama): predominantly Types A and B due to lower land cost enabling lower price points.
Mid-ring townships (Shah Alam sub-zones, Rawang, Selayang, Gombak): Types B and C are most common.
Established or transit-adjacent areas (Subang, Cyberjaya, Puchong, parts of Klang): Types C and D appear as LPHS negotiates developer participation in higher-value land parcels.

The LPHS e-Hartanah portal lists open and upcoming projects by mukim (sub-district). Filtering by district is the most reliable way to see which types are currently in ballot.

How to apply

Applications are submitted through the LPHS e-Hartanah portal at ehartanah.lphs.gov.my. The standard steps are:

Register an account and complete your profile (income documents, MyKad, employment letter).
Check which projects are open for ballot at the time of your application.
Select one project and one unit type per ballot cycle.
If successful in the ballot, you receive a Letter of Offer and proceed to sign the Sales and Purchase Agreement with the developer.
Arrange financing independently. LPHS does not provide the home loan; you apply to a bank or cooperative separately.

Tip. RSKU is a ballot, not a first-come-first-served queue. Submitting earlier in the ballot window confers no advantage over submitting on the last day. Use the time to ensure your documentation is complete.

Key takeaways

Rumah Selangorku has four main types: A (up to RM42,000), B (RM85,000 to RM150,000), C (RM150,001 to RM250,000), and D (RM250,001 to RM300,000).
Type A is for households earning up to RM3,000 per month; Types B, C, and D share an upper income ceiling of RM10,000 per month.
Unit sizes range from around 450 sq ft at Type A to over 1,000 sq ft at premium Type D projects.
Location largely determines which types appear in a given project: denser, lower-cost sub-markets host Types A and B; better-connected areas host Types C and D.
The scheme is restricted to Selangor, first-time buyers who are Malaysian citizens, and applicants who reside or work in the state.
LPHS runs the application through the e-Hartanah portal; ballot timing and available projects change frequently, so checking the portal directly is essential.

Frequently asked questions

Can I apply for more than one type in the same ballot? No. Each ballot cycle allows one application per household. You choose one project and one unit type. If you are unsuccessful, you may re-enter in the next cycle.

Does my EPF savings affect RSKU eligibility? EPF savings do not affect RSKU eligibility directly, but they are relevant for your down payment. First-time buyers may withdraw from EPF Account 2 (now Account Flexible under the EPF restructuring) to fund the deposit. For details on EPF housing withdrawals, see our guide on EPF withdrawal for a house in Malaysia.

If my household income is RM9,500, can I still apply for Type B? Yes. The income ceiling for Types B, C, and D is RM10,000. An income of RM9,500 qualifies for all three types. The practical consideration is whether a bank will approve your loan for the unit price you choose, given your DSR.

Is there a Bumiputera-only ballot for all types? Bumiputera quotas apply project-by-project based on the land conditions and state policy. Not every project carries the same quota percentage. Check the specific project ballot circular published on the LPHS portal for the exact allocation split.

What happens if I sell an RSKU unit before the moratorium period ends? RSKU units carry a moratorium, typically ten years from the date of purchase, during which you cannot sell, transfer, or rent out the unit without LPHS approval. Violating this condition can result in the unit being recalled by LPHS. Always confirm the moratorium terms in the Sale and Purchase Agreement before signing.
