Rental yield report

TRX Rental Yield Analysis

TRX yield depends on whether financial-district demand can support an entry price that, on completed stock like Core Residence, already runs above KLCC's verified psf benchmark.

Lewis recommendation

Treat TRX as a demand-anchor strategy benchmarked against KLCC's 3.7-4.5% yield range, then test each project with conservative rent and vacancy assumptions given TRX's still-maturing office occupancy.

Completed project reference

Core Residence: RM1.2M-2.2M, 622-1,572 sqft

Freehold, completed. Implied PSF ~RM1,400-1,930 — above KLCC's verified RM1,200-1,550 psf case study.

Average rental

Not yet verified for TRX

Rent depends on office demand and city convenience — benchmark against KLCC's RM4,500-6,500/mo case study until TRX-specific rent listings are collected.

Gross yield benchmark

Use KLCC's 3.7-4.5% as the ceiling test

TRX's higher entry PSF than KLCC means its net yield likely sits at or below KLCC's verified 3.7% net, not above it.

How Lewis applies it

  1. 1Collect the current project price guide and realistic nett entry price.
  2. 2Check comparable asking rent from live rental portals and avoid using only best-case furnished rent.
  3. 3Calculate gross yield using annual rental divided by property price.
  4. 4Review tenant depth, vacancy risk, furnishing cost and nearby competing supply before recommending.

Verification note

Rental yield shown on the website should be treated as a guide until the latest asking rent, package and unit type are checked again.

Potential tenants include finance professionals, expatriates, business users and city lifestyle renters — the same profile KLCC draws, since TRX competes for the identical tenant pool.

Buyer Question

What can go wrong?

Lewis Comment

Premium pricing, furnishing cost and vacancy can pressure net returns. TRX carries an added risk KLCC doesn't: office-anchor tenancy is still maturing, so today's rent evidence is thinner than KLCC's established base.

Demand Analysis: Benchmark Against KLCC's Verified Numbers

TRX demand is supported by office growth, MRT access and city lifestyle, but nearby competition is strong. Core Residence @ TRX (freehold, completed, RM1.2M-2.2M for 622-1,572 sqft) implies roughly RM1,400-1,930 psf — already above KLCC's verified RM1,200-1,550 psf case study. Since TRX's entry cost isn't cheaper than KLCC, use KLCC's verified case study (RM1.2M unit, RM4,500/mo rent, 3.7% net / 4.5% gross yield) as your realistic yield ceiling, not a floor TRX will automatically beat.
