What is the cheapest way to buy at TRX Residences?

A bank auction, or the 474 sq ft one-bedroom.

• Bank auction: one listing offered a 538 sq ft unit at RM1,060,000 against a stated market value of RM1,400,000, 24.3% below. Auctions are the quickest way into the building below market.

Smaller units carry a higher psf. At TRX Residences, 474 sq ft one-bedrooms ask up to RM2,742 psf, while 1,184 sq ft three-bedrooms ask RM2,365 to RM2,618 psf. Compare entry points on total price and yield, not psf alone; the TRX price map shows how psf varies across the district.

Can foreigners buy these units?
