IOI Properties partners with RHB Bank to offer Home and Renovation Loan and Green Residential Property Financing
PUTRAJAYA: IOI Properties Group Bhd (IOIPG) joined hands with RHB Banking Group to launch Home and Renovation Loan and Green Residential Property Financing for eligible residential properties across IOIPG's property portfolio.
The strategic partnership underscores IOIPG and RHB's dedication to supporting homeownership, while streamlining the move-in experience and promoting sustainable development approaches in the country.
'We are honoured to work with RHB in developing innovative financing solutions across our portfolio,' said IOIPG group sales, marketing and branding head Nicole Lee Chee Yiing.
'As part of this milestone collaboration, we are proud to offer Home and Renovation Loan for selected residential properties, to help smooth out the home ownership journey for buyers.
'Through RHB Full Flexi Home and Renovation Loan, homebuyers will be given access to obtain financing packages of up to 90% + 30% loan/financing margins for selected residential properties.'
Lee added: 'The additional 30% loan/financing margin aims to assist eligible homebuyers in covering renovation costs at attractive overall Home and Renovation Loan rates.
'The Renovation Loan/Financing will be disbursed directly to the buyers in stages based on renovation progress.
'We hope that through this financial solution in partnership with RHB, we will be able to help reduce the financing burden for buyers upon vacant possession, addressing this common pain point among home seekers.'
Under RHB Green Residential Property Financing, home purchasers can opt for loan margins up to 95% (inclusive of entry cost financing), with an additional five per cent to finance Mortgage Reducing Term Assurance (MRTA)/Mortgage Reducting Term Takaful (MRTT) coverage.
Properties with Green Building Index (GBI), GreenRE or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification are eligible under the campaign.
IOIPG's collaboration with RHB in the Green Residential Property Financing campaign aligns with the group's overall IOI Sustain Roadmap 2030, specifically its strategic focus on addressing climate change by reducing carbon footprint as it continues to develop sustainable communities, among other initiatives.
Sustainability has been part of IOIPG's development approach since launch, advocating for the conservation of the environment for a sustainable future.
Aside from green-certified commercial and residential projects such as IOI City Mall and IOI City Towers 1 and 2 in IOI Resort City, as well as COVO, its first transit-oriented development in 16 Sierra, Puchong South, the group also organises frequent public engagement and awareness events such as its Waste to Treasure recycling campaign, IOIPG City Nature Challenge, Earth Hour and biodiversity walks, among others.
'More and more, investors, homeowners and upgraders are not just looking for properties, but responsible investments that take into account the needs of future generation.
'We are here to address this market gap for sustainable homes, as your trusted property partner,' added Lee.
'Today's homebuyers seek more than just financing, they want flexibility, efficiency and long-term value in their investments,' said RHB Banking Group community banking managing director Jeffrey Ng Eow Oo.
'This collaboration with IOI Properties brings together RHB's tailored financial solutions and IOIPG's visionary developments to meet these growing expectations.
'Together, we aim to future-proof the homeownership journey by making it more accessible and sustainable. As a testament to our commitment, RHB has granted over RM2bil in green financing over the past five years, as of March 2025,' he added.

Selangor to step up water conservation drive through regular sessions
SEKINCHAN: The Selangor government has proposed that Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Air Selangor) hold regular briefing sessions with local authorities, traders, and community leaders to explain recent water tariff adjustments and promote public awareness of responsible water use. State Local Government and Tourism Committee chairman Datuk Ng Suee Lim said such sessions could be held several times a year and extended to schools and public campaigns, in collaboration with the Information Department, to foster long-term conservation habits. He said water-related topics should also be embedded in environmental campaigns, as water wastage affects the sustainability of natural resources. "This is not just a Selangor issue. "Span (National Water Services Commission) is implementing similar tariff adjustments across the country," he said after receiving the Selangor-level Kembara Merdeka Jalur Gemilang 2025 convoy at Pantai Redang here today. The Selangor government recently confirmed that domestic users consuming up to 20 cubic metres monthly will continue paying RM0.65 per cubic metre, with the minimum RM6.50 monthly charge unchanged. The rates had already been revised in February 2024. However, higher water usage will be subject to new rates under a revised tariff structure that takes effect on Sept 1 for consumers in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, all of which are served by Air Selangor. Meanwhile, Ng also urged the Housing and Local Government Ministry to amend existing laws to stop foreigners from operating businesses through proxies by using the names of local spouses or associates to register licenses. He said such practices allow foreign-run premises to appear legal during enforcement checks, and stronger legal provisions are needed to empower local councils to act against these disguised business arrangements. "We do not allow any foreign individuals to operate businesses in any form. Locals must come first in our economic sectors." On July 28, Housing and Local Government Minister Nga Kor Ming also said local councils are prohibited from issuing licenses to foreigners for hawking, retail, food outlets, or any other trade activities, in accordance with existing by-laws. – Bernama

The accused, Ng Wen Hua, pleaded for the minimum fine, telling the Ayer Keroh sessions court that the business was no longer in operation. (Facebook pic) MELAKA : A former director and his company were fined RM15,000 by the Ayer Keroh sessions court today for failing to pay service tax and penalties amounting to RM139,755.25 between 2021 and 2023. Judge Haderiah Siri imposed the sentence after Ng Wen Hua, 31, and Go Lounge Sdn Bhd pleaded guilty to five charges. She also ordered a one-month jail term in default for each charge should they fail to settle the fine. According to the charges, Ng and the company failed to pay service tax within the stipulated period, as required under Section 26(4) of the Service Tax Act 2018. The unpaid service taxes ranged from RM19,000 to RM30,000, with penalties between RM3,000 and RM12,000. The offences were said to have been committed at the customs department at Wisma Kastam Negeri in Ayer Keroh on Feb 1, April 1, Aug 2, 2022, as well as on Oct 3 and Dec 1, 2023. Customs department prosecuting officer Azhar Habib, who conducted the proceedings, urged the court to impose a fine of RM5,000 for each charge, citing the accused's record of non-compliance with tax payments and the fact that the offence involved loss of government revenue. Ng, who was unrepresented, pleaded for the minimum fine, saying the business was no longer in operation.
