Shah Alam new launch guide: prices by section, landed and high-rise, in Malaysia

The LRT Shah Alam line started carrying passengers on 29 Jun 2026, running 37.8km from Bandar Utama to Johan Setia. Along and around it, 115 Shah Alam new launch projects are selling now and 10 more are upcoming (PropLaunch listings, data as of 5 Nov 2026).

The city itself is laid out in numbered sections (such as Seksyen 7 and Seksyen 13) and U-sections (such as U4 and U13), and around them sit townships with their own names: Setia Alam, Setia Alamimpian, Bukit Jelutong, Kota Kemuning, TTDI Alam Impian, City of Elmina and Kwasa Damansara. Landed homes and high-rise homes sit at very different price points, so it helps to look at them separately.

Quick answer: Shah Alam has 115 new launch projects selling now (30 of them launched in 2026) and 10 upcoming, with 12,098 units left in the 109 that show a count. The median entry price (each project's lowest list price) is RM1.04m for landed homes and RM289k for high-rise. The LRT Shah Alam line has run since 29 Jun 2026.

Shah Alam in brief: the city sections and the townships

Most of what is on sale is outside the named townships: 80 of the 115 projects selling sit in the city sections, both the numbered sections and the U-sections, or in smaller localities such as Kampung Lombong and Kampung Sungai Kandis.

City of Elmina is mostly landed terrace and semi-detached homes, while Setia Alam and Setia Alamimpian mix landed homes with serviced residences. Kwasa Damansara is mostly high-rise. Bukit Jelutong, Kota Kemuning and TTDI Alam Impian have only a handful of projects each, almost all landed.

Units left counts only the projects that show a unit count.

Setia Alamimpian and TTDI Alam Impian are easy to mix up. Setia Alamimpian sits beside Setia Alam, and its projects are listed by its developer, I & P Alam Impian. TTDI Alam Impian is a separate township reached from the Kemuning-Shah Alam Highway (LKSA), which has an interchange for the 1,200-acre Alam Impian township.

Getting around: the LRT Shah Alam line, KTM Komuter and the highways

The LRT Shah Alam line, often called LRT3, is the newest way to get around. The Transport Minister announced on 22 Jun 2026 that passenger service would start on 29 Jun 2026 on the 37.8km line between Bandar Utama and Johan Setia. A station-by-station guide lists 20 stations open, six of which serve Shah Alam and Glenmarie.

The line connects to two others: the LRT Kelana Jaya line at Glenmarie 2, and the MRT Kajang line at Bandar Utama, its eastern end. Five more stations (Tropicana, Temasya, Raja Muda, Bukit Raja and Bandar Botanik) were reinstated in 2024 and are planned, with no opening date confirmed. One listing, Linkar 52 Seksyen 14, Shah Alam, gives its address as 50 metres from Dato' Menteri station. For other projects, check the walk to the nearest station on a map.

Shah Alam also has the KTM Komuter: KTMB's Komuter page lists the Tanjung Malim to Port Klang line among its routes. KTMB's station list and timetable will show you the station nearest a project and how often trains run.

Five highways serve the area:

If you are looking at Bukit Jelutong or Elmina, the GCE is your main road, with a toll plaza at each. Kota Kemuning and Alam Impian have their own interchanges on LKSA. Check the current toll rates before you commit to a daily drive.

Shah Alam new launch projects still selling

Every project here is listed as selling, newest launch first. Prices are list prices, from the cheapest unit to the most expensive, so the price for a given unit can differ. "Not shown" under units left means the listing has no count yet, and a project showing 0 units left may still release more, so ask the developer. Information, not an offer.

City of Elmina

Source: PropLaunch listings (data as of 5 Nov 2026)

Elmina is Shah Alam's landed-home township: 9 of its 11 projects selling are landed, mostly terrace houses with some cluster and semi-detached homes. List prices here run from RM250k to RM3.86m. "Elmina, Lot 3652" is listed under the Seksyen U16 locality.

Setia Alam and Setia Alamimpian

Source: PropLaunch listings (data as of 5 Nov 2026)

Setia Alam mixes serviced residence and SoHo projects with landed homes, while Setia Alamimpian is mostly landed, from terrace houses to semi-detached homes. List prices across the two run from RM230k to RM4.13m. Where a project's completion year has already passed and it still shows units left, ask the developer about those units' status.

Kwasa Damansara, Bukit Jelutong, Kota Kemuning and TTDI Alam Impian

Source: PropLaunch listings (data as of 5 Nov 2026)

Kwasa Damansara is mostly high-rise, and most of its projects are listed under the Seksyen U4 locality. Bukit Jelutong, Kota Kemuning and TTDI Alam Impian are mostly landed homes. List prices across the four run from RM250k to RM4.45m.

Other 2026 launches across Shah Alam

21 more projects launched in 2026 in the city sections and smaller localities. Many are small terrace-house launches or large high-rise blocks.

Source: PropLaunch listings (data as of 5 Nov 2026)

Seksyen 30, Seksyen U15 and Kampung Lombong are where many of the small terrace-house launches are, often with fewer than 100 units each. The other projects still selling in the city sections and smaller localities appear in the Shah Alam listings.

Upcoming projects

10 more Shah Alam projects have a sales permit but no sales recorded yet. Between them they plan 2,733 units, with a median entry price of RM640k.

Prices: landed vs high-rise, and by area

Landed and high-rise homes in Shah Alam sit at very different entry points. Across the 60 landed projects selling, the median entry price is RM1.04m. Across the other 55 projects, mostly high-rise, it is RM289k.

Source: PropLaunch listings (data as of 5 Nov 2026)

Projects whose listing shows no clear property type are left out of this table.

High-rise entry prices bunch at the bottom: in the PropLaunch listings, many high-rise projects start under RM300k.

Landed entry prices are more spread out, from small terrace-house launches under RM1m to semi-detached homes and bungalows at RM2m or more. Most of the landed projects under RM1m are in the city sections and localities such as Kampung Lombong.

By area, the lowest landed entry prices are in the city sections and smaller localities, while TTDI Alam Impian and Bukit Jelutong are at the top end for landed homes. For high-rise, Setia Alam, Kwasa Damansara and the city sections all have projects with low entry prices.

These are list prices for new units. For what homes in Shah Alam have actually sold for, look at the government's transaction data, published by NAPIC (the National Property Information Centre, part of JPPH).

How launch prices have moved since 2019–20

New terrace, townhouse and cluster homes in Shah Alam that started selling in the latest period have a median list price of RM513 per sq ft, against RM441 per sq ft for those that started in 2019–20: a change of 16%. Each two-year period is listed with the number of projects behind its figure.

Median list price per sq ft of built-up area for each project, by the year its sales started, with price-controlled affordable schemes left out. These are developers' list prices, not what buyers paid, and each period's mix of projects is different.

Source: PropLaunch listings (data as of 5 Nov 2026)

A higher median can mean prices rose, or that newer launches are in pricier spots or offer different homes, so read it as a guide to direction rather than a precise rise. For what homes have actually sold for, check the transaction data published by NAPIC.

Freehold or leasehold: what the listings show

The listings show tenure for only a small share of the projects selling, too few to say whether Shah Alam's new launches are mostly freehold or leasehold. These are the projects that showed a tenure on 28 Oct 2026.

Source: PropLaunch listings (as of 28 Oct 2026)

For the other projects, ask the developer for the land title details, then check the tenure, the lease start date and any restriction in interest in the SPA before you book. Your lawyer can confirm all three.

Schools, universities, hospitals and malls

Shah Alam is the state capital and a university town, so most everyday needs are close by. Addresses are the ones each institution gives on its own website.

Source: each institution's own website, except AEON Mall Shah Alam (Tourism Malaysia) and Central i-City (Central Pattana) (as of 28 Oct 2026)

For government primary and secondary schools, check the Ministry of Education's school listings for the zone a project falls in, since school placement follows your home address.

Who Shah Alam suits, and what to check before you book

Which part of Shah Alam fits depends on whether you want landed or high-rise, how you get to work and what your bank will lend.

If you are a family looking for a landed home, Elmina and Setia Alamimpian are the main landed townships, mostly terrace and cluster homes priced above RM1m. If your budget is under RM1m, look at the small terrace-house launches in Seksyen 30, Seksyen U15 and Kampung Lombong.

If you are a first-time buyer looking at high-rise, many high-rise projects start under RM300k, in places such as Kwasa Damansara, Seksyen 13 and Setia Alam. Ask the developer whether a project has conditions on who can buy, such as price-controlled units. Run your income through the affordability calculator before you shortlist.

If you want to commute by train, start with projects near the six LRT stations in Shah Alam and Glenmarie. Glenmarie 2 and Bandar Utama are where you change to the LRT Kelana Jaya and MRT Kajang lines.

On each project, compare the completion year with the units left: a project due soon with many units left is worth asking about. Ask too what share of units is reserved for Bumiputera buyers (the Bumiputera quota), since it decides which units are open to you.

You can look up the developer's other projects and any approved extensions of time on the project page. Viewings and price lists go through a registered estate agency.

Before you book in Shah Alam

Start by choosing between landed and high-rise, then pick a township whose roads or LRT stations fit your daily trip. Shortlist from the tables above, ask the developer for the current price list, the completion date and the tenure, and ask your bank what it will lend before you pay a booking fee. If you are a first-time buyer, note that Budget 2027 proposes a stamp duty exemption for first homes up to RM750,000 for SPAs signed from 1 Jan 2027 to 31 Dec 2030; it is a proposal, not yet law, so confirm with your lawyer or LHDN before you count on it.
