Early Registrations Reflect Market Confidence and Growing Interest in Johor’s Residential Sector

JOHOR BAHRU, July 3 (Bernama) -- WM Senibong Sdn Bhd (WM Senibong), the developer known for projects such as Senibong Cove, Crest@Austin and The Kews, officially launched its second sales gallery at Crest@Austin over the weekend. The grand opening sparked widespread interest and attracted a steady stream of visitors over two days, allowing an exclusive preview of the township’s first lake-facing, apartment-style development.

Situated within the Emerald Business Park, the Crest@Austin proposed high-rise development spans 4.21 acres and is planned across two phases. Phase 1 will include Towers 1 and 2; with Tower 3 to follow in Phase 2; yielding approximately 900 residential units in total. The development aims to redefine urban living by combining thoughtfully planned layouts, green landscapes, and proximity to key lifestyle amenities; positioning it as a communityfocused, modern urban living environment.

Over the opening weekend, WM Senibong received registrations of interest surpassing the number of units available; reflecting a high level of buyer confidence. This early response signals growing buyer confidence in Johor Bahru and aligns with the property appreciation potential in Crest@Austin where values have risen by over 50% in the past five years.

CK Quay, Chief Executive Officer of WM Senibong Sdn Bhd, said:
“We are pleased with the overwhelming turnout, which speaks of the appeal of Crest@Austin and the strong fundamentals of Johor’s maturing property landscape. The strong response reaffirms market interest in well-designed, strategically located homes and highlights the foundation of trust and credibility that WM Senibong has built within the community over the years. This aligns closely with our vision; to be the catalyst for thoughtful urban transformation and creating thriving communities that elevate lives; leaving a lasting legacy across generations.”

Visitors to the gallery were also given an exclusive preview of the show units for the upcoming project. These true-to-scale display units are accurate representations of the actual completed homes, providing prospective buyers with a realistic perspective of the living spaces.

The Crest@Austin township is home to WM Senibong’s earlier successful developments, such as Ruby Terrace, Sapphire Cluster and the Emerald Business Park, which have been completed and handed over. These projects were all recognised for their functional designs, build quality, strategic locations and accessibility within the Tebrau corridor.

More than just a residential enclave, Crest@Austin features interconnected parks, scenic lakes; and dedicated green spaces such as the 20-acre Central Lake Park, the North Park and the Sapphire Lake Park. Its proximity to key destinations such as AEON Tebrau, IKEA, Toppen Shopping Centre, major hospitals, and highways, position it as a strategic choice for homebuyers and investors alike.

WM Senibong is targeting to launch the new highrise development in the fourth quarter of this year. Those interested can visit the new sales gallery or register via www.crestataustin.com.my to receive the latest updates.
