Own a unit at 28 Boulevard (or buying one)? Run it whole-unit and price to the demand our own board has already measured: the zero-deposit studio on SPEEDHOME has drawn 63 chat requests and 4,236 views since 2020. Studios rent at RM1,500-1,750 and sell at RM265,000-380,000 — about 6.2% a year gross at the representative RM320,000 card. Rooms lose the arithmetic here, and short-stay is unproven at this address.

What can you earn?
One dedicated zero-deposit listing carries this building on SPEEDHOME's own board, and its demand record is the deepest of any 2019-vintage studio tower we have measured: the "28 Boulevard, Pandan Perdana" studio at RM2,000 a month, live since 2020, shows 63 chat requests and 4,236 views on the lifetime counters, with 66 chat requests and 9 viewing appointments in the current cycle (platform record, read 10 Oct 2026). Around it, the building runs a real rental market: 35 live Mudah listings, with studios of 450-510 sqft asking RM1,500-1,750 ("RM 1,650 per month — ... 450 sq.ft — Listed 20 hours ago") and a single measured 2-bed at RM2,500 (775 sqft — one card, thin top-end evidence).
Worked out: RM1,650 x 12 = RM19,800 divided by RM320,000 = 6.2% a year gross ("RM 320,000 — 28 Boulevard Studio Fully Furnished for sale — 450 sq.ft", listed a day before the 10 Oct 2026 read). The edges: RM265,000 pays 7.5%, RM380,000 pays 5.2%. One seller openly markets "ROI >6%" on a studio card — the market's own advertising agrees with the arithmetic. All asking-based: no transacted prices are published for this building. Our platform's price statistics for the area read RM1,400 low, RM1,800 median, RM3,500 high — platform statistics, not a portal-wide census.
The partition play is already marketed here: a "[PARTITION STUDIO+FULL FUR]" unit asks RM1,750 against RM1,599-1,700 for plain studios on the same page — about a RM100-150 premium for the split product. But the classic room market is thin: the whole Pandan Perdana room feed carries 12 rooms at RM350-800 (dense RM380-580), and a 775 sqft 2-bed split at those rates grosses roughly RM760-1,160 — far below the RM2,500 whole-unit ask. Room-split loses at this address. SPEEDHOME coliving is cat-friendly — cats welcome in our coliving rooms — and pet-friendly rooms earn about 15-20% more.
Short-stay is an empty lane in the building: no 28 Boulevard-named unit appeared on Airbnb's first page at the October 2026 check, while corridor stays run about RM50-367 a night. The proven channel here is the long-stay rental market.
Why whole-unit wins here
The verdict is the demand counter, not taste. This is a roughly 1,920-unit, four-tower 2019 scheme by Beverly Group with Mapletree next to Pandan Lake — studio-heavy stock where one household, one inventory and one re-let decision beats managing a split that pays less. The RM2,000 zero-deposit studio proves what a right-priced listing does in a building this size. If you own a 2-bed, put your own comparable in the calculator before trusting the one RM2,500 card. With 18 resale cards live against 35 rentals, treat selling as a bonus — this is a rental building.
Honest gaps: iProperty and PropertyGuru counts were not collectable in this sweep (bot-walls); transacted prices and running costs are not published anywhere we read; the 2-bed rent is one listing deep; the management's pet and short-stay position is unknown.

FAQ
Can you rent rooms at 28 Boulevard?
The arithmetic says no. Pandan Perdana rooms ask RM350-800 (12 live cards), so even a 2-bed split grosses about RM760-1,160 against RM2,500 whole — and a studio cannot be split at all. The one split product that works is already on the market: a partitioned studio asking RM1,750. Any split still needs the management's written yes first. See the room rental and co-living guide.
What yield does 28 Boulevard give?
About 6.2% a year gross on a studio: the RM1,650 market ask over the RM320,000 representative sale card — 5.2% at RM380,000, 7.5% at RM265,000. Those are asking figures, not a promise: your real yield is lower after vacancy and costs, and no transacted prices exist for this building.
Is short-stay allowed at 28 Boulevard?
Nothing measured says it is happening: zero 28 Boulevard-named units on Airbnb at the October 2026 check, while corridor stays run about RM50-367 a night. What governs is the management's written rules — Malaysia's top court confirmed a management can ban short-stay in a strata tower (Verve Suites ruling, 2020). Get the letter before you spend.
Are pets allowed at 28 Boulevard?
The building's rules are not public, and our own listing records no pet preference. SPEEDHOME coliving is cat-friendly — cats welcome in our coliving rooms — and pet-friendly rooms earn about 15-20% more. The offer is SPEEDHOME policy; building rules can vary.
What running it looks like
Setup is the two documents: title and house rules, plus your strata statement because the running costs here are self-verified. The work is one tenant for a whole unit — or two if you ever split, on your own quotes and with the letter in hand. Whole-unit, the cycle is one listing, a handful of viewings, a stamped tenancy agreement, then rent day. The 63-chat-request studio is the proof of what a right-priced, zero-deposit listing does in a 1,920-unit studio building: it out-pulls its neighbours for years. SPEEDHOME runs the listing, the viewings and the zero-deposit screening; you approve the tenant before the agreement is signed.
Ready? List your unit with SPEEDHOME — zero deposit, we run the viewings, you approve the tenant.
All figures are asking prices read on 10 Oct 2026 (SPEEDHOME's own board and Mudah entity pages; Airbnb for the short-stay check; iProperty and PropertyGuru were not collectable this sweep). Running costs are not published. More: the landlord investment decision guide.
