Independent buyer guide. Written by DMS Jason Chan (REN 78007). DMS Team markets The Shang Residence and Kuchai Uptown and is paid by their developers; the other projects on this page are listed so you can compare fairly. Figures for projects we do not market come from public sources and are indicative. Confirm every figure with the developer before you rely on it.
Quick answer: The new projects buyers compare around Kuchai Lama in 2026 are The Shang Residence (freehold, 449 units, about 650 m from the planned MRT3 Jalan Klang Lama station, SPA from RM644,940), Kuchai Uptown (Phase 2 of the Kuchai Sentral integrated development, 656 to 1,252 sq ft, shuttle to MRT Kuchai Lama), and on the Old Klang Road side M Aurora, Genstarz and Skyline Kuchai. The main dividing lines are tenure, density and how close you are to rail.
The Shang and Kuchai Uptown figures are from the developers’ sales material. The other columns are indicative figures from public sources.

Sources checked 2 October 2026: NST (M Aurora), The Edge (Skyline Kuchai), StarProperty (Skyline Kuchai), Menta Land (Kuchai Sentral).
