How Much Do Property Agents Charge in Malaysia?

Agent fees follow the BOVAEP scale and depend on whether you are buying, selling or renting.

1. 1

   Sale Commission Structure

   For a sale, the fee is typically 2%–3% of the sale price plus SST (capped by the BOVAEP scale), usually shared between the listing and co-agent.

2. 2

   Rental Commission Structure

   For a rental, the fee is usually equivalent to about one month’s rent for a one-year tenancy, scaling with the length of the tenancy.

3. 3

   Who Pays the Agent — Buyer or Seller?

   For sales the seller pays; for rentals the landlord pays. Buyers and tenants generally do not pay the agent’s commission.
