What Brickz does

Brickz.my is a Malaysian property transaction data platform founded in 2015 and operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of PropertyGuru Group Limited via PropertyGuru International (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. (201001036744 (920667-W)). The platform aggregates officially recorded sub-sale property transactions sourced from stamp duty payment records, compiling data monthly since January 2015 and covering all five Malaysian property categories — residential, commercial, industrial, land, and agriculture — across all 16 states and federal territories including Sabah and Sarawak. Its core offering is a self-serve web application with a freemium model: the free tier surfaces the five most recent transactions per project alongside 25th/median/75th percentile price-per-square-foot statistics, while a paid 'Brickz Report' (RM74.52 inclusive of 8% SST per project) delivers comprehensive PDF records with full unit addresses.

The underlying technology is a property transaction data aggregation engine layered with a proprietary pattern recognition system that automatically identifies and corrects or removes incomplete or inconsistent records (missing prices, absent project names, missing land or build-up areas, inconsistent sizing and pricing). This data-cleansing layer is the company's primary stated technical differentiator and underwrites the reliability of the historical transaction database. The platform integrates PayPal and IPay88 for payments and supports Facebook and Google+ social login for registration friction reduction. No mobile app, public API, or SDK is offered.

Brickz serves three primary user segments — individual home buyers and sellers performing due diligence, real estate agents and property professionals conducting market analysis, and property investors evaluating comparable sales — through a product-led growth motion with no direct sales force. Active monetization has narrowed since April 2021 when the annual subscription tier was closed to new subscribers due to data use restrictions, leaving per-report purchases and pre-2021 legacy subscriptions as the revenue streams. The platform functions as a top-of-funnel feeder for PropertyGuru's DataSense analytics suite, embedding referral links to higher-value rental-yield, demand, and price-change analytics products targeted at the agent segment within the parent group's broader portfolio.

Scale indicators4 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Zillow: US incumbent in residential property data and the global benchmark for transaction-based price transparency at scale. Comparable product surface (sold prices, filters, agent tools) even though the market and regulatory structure differ from Malaysia.
• PropertyGuru.com.my: Flagship Malaysian portal of Brickz's parent PropertyGuru Group. Comparable because it serves the same Malaysian property buyers, sellers and agents with listings and pricing tools, but operates a much broader portal model rather than focusing on sub-sale transaction data.

Regional players

• DDproperty: Thailand's leading property portal under the same PropertyGuru Group umbrella. Comparable as a regional peer showing how the parent group monetises property data and listings across Southeast Asia.
• 99.co: Singapore property portal with comparable transaction and price-trend data tools. Useful regional peer for benchmarking pricing, data depth and user experience in adjacent SE Asian markets.
• Rumah.com: Indonesian property portal (also PropertyGuru Group) offering listings and price data for the largest SE Asian market. Comparable as a regional peer illustrating geographic expansion patterns around property data.

Direct peers

• EdgeProp.my: Malaysian property data, news and analytics platform that provides transaction-based price insights and market research. Closest direct comparator to Brickz's sub-sale transaction data proposition, also serving investors and professionals.
• Propwall.my: Malaysian property portal offering project searches, price trends and neighbourhood data. Competes for the same organic search traffic that drives Brickz's PLG funnel around property due diligence.
• iProperty.com.my: Major Malaysian property portal with comparable price and trend data tools for buyers, sellers and agents. Directly competes for the same due-diligence traffic that Brickz monetises through its report product.
• PropertyAdvisor.my: Malaysian property data platform offering price analytics, transaction history and neighbourhood insights. Direct overlap with Brickz's transaction-data use case for buyers and investors.

Others

• DataSense (PropertyGuru for Business): PropertyGuru's analytics product for real estate agents, integrated with Brickz via referral links. Adjacent rather than competitive: same parent, complementary product targeting the agent segment that Brickz's free tier funnels into DataSense.
