Own a unit at Paragon Suites @ CIQ? This is the corridor's verdict flip: on measured in-building rates, rooms win the 2-bed plate. Our own board carries the proof as a live product — two dedicated pet-friendly room cards at RM1,200 and RM1,700, a same-day operator pair — and an EdgeProp room card asks RM1,300 for a furnished 300 sqft room. Two rooms at those rates gross RM2,400-3,400 against the RM1,400-1,700 whole-ask band on the 6-card Mudah entity: the split out-grosses by RM700-1,700 a month. Two gates before you bank it: the MC/JMB's written sharing position (not public) and your entry price — Brickz's live-bound row shows just 5 transactions, P25-P75 RM440,000-1,000,000, and at the RM440,000 P25 the whole-let yields 3.8-4.6% gross while the split basis runs 6.5-9.3%. Short stay is measured too — five named Airbnb units at RM135-254 a night — and by-law-gated. Run the flip through the calculator before committing anything.

What can you earn?
First-party first, and here it decides the verdict: SPEEDHOME's Paragon Suites board carries two dedicated ROOM listings — a same-day operator pair created 28 September 2026, both pet-friendly, one at RM1,200 with two chat requests and a viewing already banked, one at RM1,700. That is the zero-deposit room product live at the building, and it prices the split: with the EdgeProp in-building room card at RM1,300 for a fully furnished 300 sqft room (excerpt-grade, labelled), the measured in-building room rate runs RM1,200-1,700.
Against that, the whole-ask band on the 6-card Mudah entity: 2-beds at RM1,400 (600 sqft) and RM1,700 (680 sqft "New Listing"), with one RM1,700 card printing an anomalous 150 sqft size field carried verbatim as a data-quality flag; 3-beds at RM1,900-2,500 on 1,000-1,100 sqft plates. The arithmetic, measured basis: two rooms gross RM2,400-3,400 against RM1,400-1,700 whole — the split out-grosses by RM700-1,700 a month before furnishing and management effort, and the room cards are pet-friendly on both ends. The corridor agrees the demand is real: R&F Princess Cove's pet-friendly room runs RM1,100 with 18 chat requests; Twin Tower Residence roommate cards run RM1,000-1,200.
The sale side is the fleet's first live-bound Brickz row: the page title itself reads "5 Non-landed transactions" and the raw range prints P25 RM440,000 to P75 RM1,000,000 — the RM680,000 median (~RM681 psf) is search-summary grade, quoted as reported, never as live. Portal asking summaries are parked unverified; one RM2,534,250 five-bed ask is a single-card outlier. Derived yields on the live-bound P25, labelled hard: whole-let RM1,400-1,700 = 3.8-4.6% gross; split basis RM2,400-3,400 = 6.5-9.3%. Short stay: five Paragon-named Airbnb units at RM135-254 a night off five-night totals of RM673-1,271, plus a backpacker-bed card implying bed-tier supply — implied RM2,430-4,570 a month on the 2-bed plate at an assumed 60% occupancy, the assumption named, never a forecast. Running costs: maintenance and sinking fund did not surface on a three-probe read — the RM330 default is a fenced placeholder, and the 2017 completion puts this tower squarely into its maintenance-cycle years.
Why a 461-unit CIQ tower flips the verdict
Paragon Suites @ CIQ is JOLAND Group's freehold 33-storey, 461-unit serviced apartment at Stulang Darat, completed 2017 on a RM576 million GDV, walking distance to the Customs, Immigration and Quarantine complex. The developer page does not publish the unit mix — so this page carries measured market plates (600-680 sqft 2-beds, 1,000-1,100 sqft 3-beds, a 300 sqft room) instead of inventing one.
Two structural facts produce the flip. First, border-footfall demand: walkers to the CIQ rent rooms, not whole flats — that is what the own-board pair, the EdgeProp room card and the R&F corridor counter all price, and it is also what fills the five named Airbnb units. Second, small plates: on a 600-680 sqft 2-bed, the whole-let ask sits at RM1,400-1,700 while two rooms bill RM1,200-1,700 each — the geometry that makes the split out-gross. The gates are equally structural: a 461-unit single tower beside the crossing is prime territory for short-stay saturation, which is exactly where management corporations tighten by-laws — and nothing is public. The letter decides whether the measured arithmetic becomes your income.

FAQ
Is Paragon Suites @ CIQ a room-rental investment?
On measured numbers, yes — this is the corridor's flip. Two dedicated own-board pet-friendly room cards (RM1,200/RM1,700) plus the EdgeProp RM1,300 room card put the in-building room rate at RM1,200-1,700; two rooms gross RM2,400-3,400 against the RM1,400-1,700 whole ask. The MC/JMB written sharing position gates it — not public today. SPEEDHOME coliving is cat-friendly — cats welcome in our coliving rooms — whatever the MC decides about sharing.
What yield does Paragon Suites @ CIQ give?
Entry-dependent, derived on the live-bound Brickz P25 RM440,000: the whole-let 2-bed at RM1,400-1,700 is 3.8-4.6% gross; the split basis RM2,400-3,400 runs 6.5-9.3%. Only 5 transactions back the row (P75 RM1,000,000, median RM680,000 reported-grade) — thin evidence, labelled as such. Enter your own dated numbers in the calculator above.
Is short-stay allowed at Paragon Suites @ CIQ?
Five building-named Airbnb units run RM135-254 a night plus a backpacker-bed card — the market is measured and the permission is not: no by-law text is public, and a management corporation can prohibit short-term letting. The implied RM2,430-4,570 a month assumes 60% occupancy; that assumption is yours to test in the calculator, not a forecast.
Are pets allowed at Paragon Suites @ CIQ?
Both dedicated own-board room cards carry the pet-friendly flag — measured, at RM1,200 and RM1,700 — and the roughly 15-20% premium class is market context on top. SPEEDHOME coliving is cat-friendly — cats welcome in our coliving rooms. The building-level MC position is not published and can vary; the offer is SPEEDHOME policy.
What running it looks like
Setup is two documents: the title (which names your parcel's plate) and the MC letter (which decides whether the measured split becomes your model). The work is two furnished rooms with their own agreements — listings, viewings, stamped tenancies, then rent day — or one household on the whole-let default if the letter says no. Zero deposit, professional screening, and SPEEDHOME runs the listings, the viewings and the rent collection while you approve every tenant before anything is signed.
