Section 2 Property Prices in Petaling Jaya 2026
Our Verdict
"Smart Money"
With a median price of RM4600/m², this area is a textbook SMART_MONEY move for buyers who value land over aesthetics. Our neighborhood analysis shows that while many houses are decades old and require heavy CAPEX, the central location justifies the investment outlook. You are essentially paying for a footprint in a prime PJ postal code where the price floor is stabilized by scarcity and the sheer lack of new landed developments.
The Vibe:Section 2 is PJ Old Town at its core—a grid of aging single-story bungalows and narrow lanes where residents have lived for decades. Traffic is a constant battle around the Jalan Othman wet market, and street parking is almost non-existent during peak hours. You aren't buying into a polished suburb; you're buying into a gritty, established zone connected by the Jalan Templer KTM station.
The median property price in Section 2, Petaling Jaya is RM4,600 per m², 39% below the Petaling Jaya city average of RM7500/m². Based on 1 verified sale data points as of May 2026.

Locals Ask
Is Section 2 mainly leasehold or freehold?
Most properties here are leasehold; you must check the remaining tenure as many are halfway through their 99-year cycle.
What accounts for the RM3750 - RM5800/m² price gap?
The lower end reflects houses in near-derelict condition, while the RM5800 peak is for fully rebuilt modern structures.
How is the flooding situation in Section 2?
While generally stable, some low-lying lanes near the monsoon drains can see flash pooling during extreme tropical downpours.
Is it easy to find parking for visitors?
No, visitors will struggle; the narrow streets are often choked with residents' cars parked on curbs.
Can I walk to the LRT station?
No, the LRT is too far; you are reliant on the KTM Komuter line or a short drive to the Taman Jaya station.
