The following types of property are found in Malaysia:
- Flats or apartments: Newer and upmarket blocks often have extra facilities such as a swimming pool, tennis courts and a gym
- Condominiums: Similar to flats, but the blocks often have more facilities including convenience stores and security guards
- Terraced houses: Houses usually have either one or two storeys and adjoin neighbouring properties. More luxurious and therefore expensive houses are referred to as town houses
- Semi Ds: Semi-detached houses, where one unit comprises two homes
- Bungalows: Detached houses built on their own land; they can be of any size and are often very large
- Gated communities: Developments which are protected by a guard house and are surrounded by fencing
