Condominiums in Petaling Jaya
A guide to 146 condominiums in Petaling Jaya, what to check before signing, and how our ranking helps you compare buildings.
Finding a condominium in Petaling Jaya
Petaling Jaya has one of the densest concentrations of condominiums in the Klang Valley, spread across areas like PJU 5 (Kota Damansara border), Section 13, Damansara Perdana, PJS neighborhoods, and the older, established sections near Jalan Gasing and Section 17. We track 146 of these developments, ranging from budget-friendly walk-up style blocks to gated high-rises with full facilities. Choosing one is less about the unit itself and more about the building: how it's managed, how well it's aged, and whether the fees you pay actually show up in upkeep.
What to look at before you commit
Ask about the management corporation's financial health, not just the monthly maintenance fee. A low fee that hasn't been reviewed in years often means a sinking fund with nothing in it for roof repairs or repainting. Walk the common areas at different times of day: check if lifts are serviced regularly, whether parking is secure, and how the building handles water pressure on higher floors, a common complaint in older PJ blocks. Look at the ratio of owner-occupiers to renters, since buildings with more long-term residents tend to have more stable management and fewer disputes at AGMs.
How we score buildings

Common questions about condominiums
- How much does it cost to buy a condominium in Petaling Jaya?
- Prices vary a lot by area and age. Older units in Section 17 or Section 13 can be more affordable than newer developments in Damansara Perdana or along the LRT corridor, where prices run higher per square foot. The unit price is only part of the equation, factor in monthly maintenance fees, sinking fund contributions, and any special assessments the management has flagged.
- How often should I check on maintenance fees and sinking fund reports?
- Ask for at least the last two years of AGM minutes and audited accounts before buying. These show whether fees have kept pace with actual costs and whether major repairs are being funded properly or deferred.
- What should I expect during a viewing?
- Beyond the unit, check the condition of lifts, corridors, and parking levels, ask about water pressure on the floor you're viewing, and find out how quickly the management responds to repair requests. Talking to a current resident, if possible, tells you more than the sales brochure will.
- How do I judge the quality of a condominium's management?
- Look at how well common facilities are maintained relative to the age of the building, how promptly issues get resolved, and whether the management corporation communicates clearly with residents. Buildings that score well in our ranking tend to do consistently well on these points rather than excelling in just one area.
