NIKKA City Sentral is now more accessible than ever as Kirana Kemajuan Sdn Bhd has partnered with Maybank Islamic to offer the HouzKEY financing facility.
HouzKEY is a financing solution to assist first and second home Malaysian buyers in owning their dream homes, with homebuyers enjoying 100% financing and no down payment required. This means, absolutely no payment is needed during the construction period, other than having the lowest monthly payment.
“We are delighted to work with Maybank Islamic as it allows Malaysians more choices when it comes to securing a home at NIKKA City Sentral.
“With homes at NIKKA City Sentral starting from just RM499,356, all home buyers are especially encouraged to take advantage of the government’s extended Home Ownership Campaign (HOC) as they may also benefit from stamp duty exemptions and MOT waivers,” said Lee Tuan Khoon, Director of Kirana Kemajuan Sdn Bhd.
HouzKEY is an alternative home ownership solution where one can enjoy financing at the lowest monthly rate from only RM1,100 per month for the first five years, plus the option to settle early by refinancing, sell it over to 3rd party buyer or continue with the HouzKEY arrangement, one year after Vacant Possession.
“Malaysia’s population is still growing and that implies houses will be needed. We believe there will be continued demand for quality housing as the property market sentiment improves so we are pleased to partner with Kirana Kemajuan to offer NIKKA City Sentral under our HouzKEY homeownership solution. Allowing more Malaysians to own their dream home with minimal upfront costs linked to purchasing a property, homeowners only need to pay a 3-month refundable security deposit upon execution of the HouzKEY Home Financing Agreements. The government is encouraging people to buy properties by extending the Home Ownership Campaign and financing rate remains low with the overnight policy rate at 1.75%,” said Sally Lye, Managing Director of Maybank’s Real Estate Ventures.
Located at Bandar Sri Permaisuri, Cheras, NIKKA City Sentral is planned as a high-rise low-density condominium with just 223 units with sizes ranging from 965 sf to 1,264 sf.
NIKKA City Sentral also epitomises value on many fronts. Offering layouts of either 4 or 5 rooms in dual-key arrangements, all units come with 3 bathrooms, which is an increasingly important asset given heightened hygiene requirements arising from more demanding mindset brought about by COVID-19.
As the experience from the ongoing pandemic has shown, having more, rather than fewer, rooms are important. The dual-key layout allows one to have maximum privacy if the other half of the apartment is rented out, and it also provides for an effective partition between work and living spaces for those who are drawn to working from home.
“The pandemic brought about additional challenges for us such as rising construction costs stemming from higher material and logistical costs. We however stayed true to our mission to deliver the best possible value to our customers. NIKKA City Sentral with its superb value pricing makes for a very tempting offer, having been designed to match the changing needs and lifestyles of our purchasers. I am happy to say NIKKA City Sentral delivers on many fronts,” said Lee.
Proximity to Business and Activity Centres
With its sheer proximity to the Kuala Lumpur city centre many places can be quickly accessed by driving, with MidValley just 7km away, while Bukit Bintang is 9km, and KLCC at 10km, all made possible with multiple access to major highways and roads.

This connectivity does not end with roads, as NIKKA City Sentral can boast of superb connectivity with Klang Valley’s rail network as it is only 50m away from the Salak Selatan LRT station, which is on the Sri Petaling Line. Further afield, residents can also walk 500m to the KTM Salak Selatan station to catch the KTM Komuter train. There is also room for capital appreciation as the Salak Selatan LRT station has been widely speculated as an interchange between the Sri Petaling LRT and the upcoming MRT3 or Circle Line.
Rail users can reach places such as Tun Razak Exchange (6 stops), KL Sentral (8 stops), Bukit Bintang (7 stops), and KLCC (9 stops), all within 30 minutes, including walking time and transfers. In addition to this, NIKKA City Sentral is only two stops away from the currently under construction Chan Sow Lin MRT station, which allows one to commute to Bandar Malaysia, Cyberjaya, and Putrajaya by mid-2023 using the Putrajaya Line.
Great Surroundings & Well-Endowed Facilities
Located right smack within a mature neighbourhood, residents are never far away from conveniences that are expected to be part of modern urban life. Hospital UKM is just 2.4km away by road in case of healthcare attention whilst for outdoor recreation, Taman Tasik Permaisuri is 2.1km away.
There are several dozen activity spaces at NIKKA Sentral to keep those with active lifestyles occupied. A huge attraction is an elevated jogging track that spans the Hyper Deck offering residents the room to really run, or just to casually unwind as they keep fit.
For those who want more excitement, there is an indoor boxing deck to get pumped up, while children will enjoy the outdoor Ultra Park that allows them to run free within a secure environment. Those who want to chill at can just soak in the city view by the pool or enjoy the city skyline from the Panora-Bar and Sky Kitchen that is designed for rooftop gatherings.
In addition to this, all units come ready with smart home systems that allow one to screen visitors, as well as to control access at many levels to ensure security. These smart home systems also allow parents to monitor their children at home and control energy use remotely through the Smart Home Kit Gateway.
To complete the all-round security feature of the home, the main door to each unit will be armed with a digital lock, which will work even without wifi to minimise the possibility of hacking.
