HI World City | Penang Science Park | Individual Title Shop Office
In short
HI World City is a landed property in Batu Kawan, Penang by HI World. The development holds 55 units, built-ups from 2,183 to 10,134 sq ft. The land is leasehold 99 years (from 2026), completion is set for End of 2027.
HI World City sits in Batu Kawan, Penang, on a site of 4.51 acres. It is planned as 4 blocks, 55 homes.
There are 2 layouts on offer between 2,183 and 10,134 sq ft. It gives HI World City a mix rather than a single repeated plan.
HI World City is developed by HI World on leasehold 99 years (from 2026) land. The units carry an individual title, commercial lot.
Set out plainly, it comes to 2 to 3 storeys, a site of 4.51 acres, an individual title, commercial lot.

Completion set for End of 2027. A published target gives the liquidated damages clause in the sale and purchase agreement something to bite on. Ask for the date in the agreement, which is the one that counts.
Landed, so the land is yours. No share unit, no strata maintenance formula and no management corporation deciding what happens to the building. What you maintain is your own, and what you own includes the ground under it.
Individual title, not strata. The title is issued on the lot itself, so there is no share unit, no management corporation and no strata maintenance formula. Transfers are simpler and the charge you pay is whatever the local council levies, not a building budget.
Leasehold. The lease runs down, extending it costs money, and a sale needs state consent, which takes time. Ask for the remaining term in writing — it matters more to a bank than to a brochure.
It is not built yet. What you are buying is a drawing and a delivery date. Completion is set for End of 2027, and dates set by developers move. Read the sale and purchase agreement on the liquidated damages clause, not the brochure.
No facility list is on record here. Ask for one in writing. What is shared decides a good part of the monthly charge, and a render of a pool is not a commitment to build one.
It sits on a commercial title. Housing-development protections still apply where the title says under HDA, but assessment and utility tariffs can follow the commercial schedule. Ask the developer to confirm in writing which one applies before you budget the monthly cost.
The smallest house here is 2,183 sq ft. A big house costs more to cool, light and maintain than a small one, and on landed stock none of that is shared. Work out the running cost on the size you are actually buying.
