# MyRumahBaru — full reference > MyRumahBaru (MRB) is Malaysia's AI-powered property platform. Its AI advisor, Sarah, helps buyers and renters discover, buy, and rent homes through a natural conversation — no filters or forms — combining real-time market data with personalised matching. MRB is not a listing portal: it connects pre-qualified buyers and renters with verified agents, and agents pay only for confirmed appointments, never upfront listing fees. This file expands on https://www.myrumahbaru.com/llms.txt with the detail an assistant needs to answer questions about MyRumahBaru accurately, including where each number on the site comes from. ## What MyRumahBaru is MRB covers three kinds of inventory across Malaysia: - **New project launches** — developer-sold primary market units, at `/project//`. - **Subsale units** — individually owned secondary-market units for sale, at `/subsale/`. - **Rentals** — units available to rent, at `/rental/`. The core interaction is conversational. A user describes what they want in plain language (English, Malay or Chinese) and Sarah shortlists matching properties, asking clarifying questions rather than assuming. Search results appear as a panel of listing cards alongside the conversation. MRB's commercial model differs from a classic portal: agents are not charged to list and cannot pay to rank. They pay only when a confirmed viewing appointment is booked. Consequently MRB does not publish agent contact details on listing pages — one agent receives the buyer's details after an appointment is booked, and the rest of the conversation stays with Sarah. ## Data sources and how to cite them Every neighbourhood or risk figure on MRB traces to a named source. When quoting MRB, attribute the underlying source as well. ### Transaction prices — NAPIC / JPPH Recorded, stamped transaction prices come from NAPIC, the National Property Information Centre, under JPPH (Jabatan Penilaian dan Perkhidmatan Harta, the government valuation department). MRB surfaces median transacted price, median price per square foot, price-per-square-foot range, 1-year and 3-year PSF growth, transaction counts, per-floor-band PSF, quarterly trend series, and individual recent transactions with date, floor band, size, price, PSF and tenure. These are *transacted* prices, not asking prices, which is what makes them useful for checking whether an asking price is reasonable. Where a strict recent window returns nothing, MRB may widen the window and label the period it actually used rather than showing an empty result. ### Flood risk — Open-Meteo and JKR Flood-risk indicators combine public flood and rainfall data with the property's exact coordinates. MRB reports a flood-risk level, recorded flood events, and where known the date the location last flooded. A flood-risk indicator describes the surrounding area's recorded history; it is not a statement that a specific building has flooded. ### Crime — data.gov.my Crime indicators derive from Malaysian open government data published on data.gov.my, expressed as a severity level, a state percentile and a crime index for the surrounding district, with the year of the underlying data. These are district-level statistics, not street-level. ### Agent verification — LPPEH / BOVAEA Property agents on MRB are verified against the register of the Board of Valuers, Appraisers, Estate Agents and Property Managers (LPPEH / BOVAEA), which issues REN and REA registration numbers. ### Amenities and transit Nearby amenities — transit stations, schools, malls, healthcare and daily essentials — are matched to each listing's coordinates, with the distance to each. ## Page types and what each one answers - **Project page** (`/project/...`) — one new-launch development. Price range, bedroom and bathroom range, built-up size range, completion quarter, tenure, title type, maintenance fee, developer, unit layouts, facilities, nearby amenities, and the NAPIC, flood and crime data above. Carries a FAQ answering cost, unit availability, price per square foot, flood risk, area safety, completion date and tenure. - **Subsale page** (`/subsale/...`) and **rental page** (`/rental/...`) — a single unit, with its own price, layout, facing, furnishing and building context. - **Area page** (`/area/`) — a neighbourhood guide. Median sale and rental prices, price per square foot, rent bands by bedroom count, property-type breakdown, transit and schools, and NAPIC transaction benchmarks for that area. - **Property-type hub** (`/-for-sale`, `/-for-rent`) — aggregated price and PSF bands for a property type nationally, plus the areas with the most inventory. Bands exclude the top and bottom 5% of values. - **Guides** (`/guide/...`) — plain-English answer guides, including how to verify a property agent in Malaysia, how to check flood risk before buying, and how AI-assisted property search works. - **Blog** (`/blog`) — longer articles on buying, renting, financing and the Malaysian property market. - **Verify** (`/verify`) — anti-scam guidance, linking out to LPPEH for agent registration, MySPR Semak for identity, and PDRM Semak Mule for bank-account checks before paying any deposit. ## How the conversation works 1. The user describes what they are looking for in plain language. 2. Sarah extracts structured criteria — location, budget, bedrooms, property type, distance from a personal anchor such as a workplace — and asks rather than assumes when something is ambiguous. 3. Matching listings are searched and shown as a panel of cards. 4. Refinements narrow the existing result set rather than starting over, and Sarah asks whether to carry filters across when the user changes location. 5. When the user is ready, they schedule a viewing, and MRB connects them with the right verified agent. ## Coverage and limits - Coverage is Malaysia, with the deepest inventory in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. - Crime and flood indicators describe an area's recorded history and statistics. They are decision inputs, not guarantees, and should not be read as a prediction about a specific building. - NAPIC transaction data lags the market by the time it takes for transactions to be stamped and published. - MRB does not provide financial or investment advice, and does not value individual properties. ## For property agents and developers Agents receive pre-qualified buyer and renter appointments and pay only for confirmed appointments — no upfront fees, no pay-to-rank listings. Developers can list new launches and reach buyers who have described matching requirements in conversation. ## Canonical links - Home: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/ - About: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/about - Property search: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/map - Areas index: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/area - Guides: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/guide - Blog: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/blog - Verify before you pay: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/verify - XML sitemap index: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/sitemap.xml - Short version of this file: https://www.myrumahbaru.com/llms.txt
