Bhd.) is a Malaysia-based property and asset valuation consultancy founded in 1982 and headquartered in Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur. The firm provides professional valuation, fair value measurement, market and feasibility study, and real estate agency and property investment services, applying the three standard valuation methodologies (Market Approach, Cost Approach, and Income Approach) across an unusually broad asset spectrum that includes commercial, industrial, residential, healthcare, hospitality, retail, mixed development, educational, leisure, car parks, plantations, biological assets, development lands, quarries, mills, refineries, water treatment plants, ports, and marinas. All valuations are delivered in compliance with RICS, IVSC, BOVEAP/LPPEM, RISM, MASB, IFRS, Securities Commission Malaysia, Bursa Malaysia, and IACVS standards.

The firm serves two primary client segments: more than 25 Malaysian and international banks and financial institutions (including Maybank, Public Bank, Hong Leong Bank, OCBC, UOB, Standard Chartered, and Bank of China) for whom it acts as a panel valuer for mortgage, refinancing, and Islamic financing decisions, and more than 100 public listed companies on Bursa Malaysia requiring statutory valuations for IPOs, REITS, corporate exercises, fair value measurement under MFRS/IFRS, and impairment testing. Secondary segments include plantation and agribusiness operators in Malaysia and Indonesia, industrial and manufacturing companies with specialized plant and machinery, and private individuals requiring property valuations for sale, purchase, insurance, or compulsory acquisition. Delivery occurs through three offices in Kuala Lumpur (headquarters), Penang, and Kuching, covering both West and East Malaysia.

The business model is fee-for-service professional services engagement, with pricing structured per engagement based on asset type, complexity, and scope of work; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm operates with approximately 50 employees and a director-led team of RICS-accredited valuers and consultants specializing in regulatory submissions, plant and machinery, plantation advisory, and fair value measurement. Go-to-market is direct enterprise engagement, supported by bank panel appointments and regulatory approvals as primary acquisition channels, with brand reinforcement through content marketing on its website, LinkedIn, and Facebook. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, or external investors.
