Low Entry Price Options
For budget-conscious buyers, Bangsar South offers several affordable entry options. The lowest entry price point is Rio, starting from just RM300,000 at /projects/rio/. This makes it highly accessible for young professionals.
Mid-Range Budget Projects
Nestree at /projects/nestree/ is available from RM577,000, offering good mid-range value. For slightly larger budgets, Riana Trees at /projects/riana-trees/ starts from RM838,000. Both projects feature modern condo facilities.
Tenure and Trade-offs
All these affordable projects are leasehold properties with higher densities. While entry prices are low, capital appreciation might be slower. The trade-off is offset by high rental demand from the corporate workforce.

Choose Rio if you are looking for maximum rental yield on a budget. Select Nestree or Riana Trees if you plan to live in the unit yourself. Ensure you verify the monthly maintenance charges before booking.
