The verdict at The Fennel is whole-unit, family-flat — in a room-dense YTL master plan where the room demand belongs to sibling buildings, not this tower. The spread is the story: our own board carries one proven dedicated card at RM1,600 with 105 lifetime chat requests, while the only live portal card reads RM3,800 for a fully-furnished 1,237 sqft 3-bed — two plate classes, both labelled, never blended. No transacted file exists (Brickz 404s on both shapes), so the sale side is listing examples at RM598-662 psf and a launch-era forum echo of "about 680psf". Worked, listing-example-basis, labelled, gross, before the 2.19% processing fee: on the RM750,000 1,237-sqft example, RM1,600 x 12 = RM19,200 = 2.6% and RM3,800 x 12 = RM45,600 = 6.1% — the spread IS the market finding: an under-priced own card or a smaller plate. Rooms: none measured. Short stay: zero building-named. Maintenance echoes conflict at RM0.28 vs RM0.45 psf — recorded, asserted neither.
Three ways to run your unit
Pick a model card and put in your own numbers — the rent field loads RM1,600, the proven own-board card (105 requests since September 2026), and the purchase field stays yours to fill: Brickz has no project file and the RM598-662 psf figures are listing examples, not transactions. The answer updates as you type.

What can you earn?
First-party first, the fleet's strongest class of counter: the board reads "1 Zero Deposit Condos for Rent in The Fennel, Sentul · 53 nearby" — one dedicated card, RM1,600, 105 chat requests, 9 viewings, live since 2026-09-02 on Jalan Amra. Around it the corridor carries the fleet-record demand plate: Maxim Citilights at RM1,400 with 782 lifetime requests, TR Residence RM2,700 at 257, The Birch rooms RM850 at 230, Casa Idaman RM1,600 at 200, The Tamarind RM1,800 at 157 plus its RM1,150 room at 37, M Centura RM2,000 at 164, The Capers RM3,800 pet-friendly at 37 — Sentul demand is measured and converting, hard.
The rent book, two cards, two classes. Mudah has no dedicated Fennel entity — the Sentul area slug is a 556-card feed — but it carries one named card, verbatim: "The Fennel Sentul East · RM 3,800 per month · 1,237 sqft · 3 Bed 3 Bath · Condominium · Fully Furnished · Property Agent · listed 1 hour ago". Against the own-board RM1,600 (plate unstated) that is a plate-class spread, and the page carries both bases rather than asserting a band: resolve which plate you hold before quoting either number.
The sale side, honestly excerpt-basis. Brickz has no project page on either URL shape and the searches come back void — re-sweep flagged. What exists: iRumah listing examples — "2-bedroom, 1,330 sf — RM810,000 (~RM609 psf); 2-bedroom, 1,434 sf — RM950,000 (~RM662 psf); 3-bedroom, 1,186 sf — RM710,000 (~RM598 psf); 3-bedroom, 1,237 sf — RM750,000 (~RM606 psf)" — a launch-era forum echo "For 17th floor the psf is about 680psf" (September 2017), and an auction tail at RM380,000-684,000 which is distress stock, never a comp. Worked on the RM750,000 example, gross, before 2.19%: RM19,200 = 2.6% at the proven card, RM45,600 = 6.1% at the furnished agent card. See the real cost of self-managing a rental.
The alternatives, fenced. Rooms: zero Fennel room-class objects this sweep — the master plan's room demand sits in The Birch (RM850, 230 requests) and Bistari (RM670, 116), sibling buildings; Fennel's 1,081-1,690 sqft plates are family-flat class and room-split is not the observed play. Short-stay: zero Fennel-named Airbnb units; the corridor stock carries that demand — M Arisa "3BR Family Stay" at RM1,568 per five nights, M Centura at RM1,160, a 21-pax KL Home at RM2,857 with 479 reviews. Costs: maintenance is a recorded conflict — "Rate: RM0.45 psf per month (per a PropertyGuru review from Feb 2021)" against "a StarProperty review mentioned a rate of RM0.28 psf" — which swings carry cost by RM200+ a month on these plates; asserted neither, resolved only by the JMB schedule. One sale incentive observed: "Asking Price: RM 800,000 nett. Unit: 15-1. Free 2 years maintenance fees".
Why a 2017 YTL tower runs whole-unit in a room-dense master plan
The Fennel is YTL Land & Development's 916-unit Sentul East tower set — four 38-storey blocks, construction completed late 2017 per the developer's Annual Report 2018, layouts from 1,081 to 1,690 sqft, DBKL jurisdiction, freehold per the sweep header with the title document settling it. YTL's Sentul master plan rings this tower with siblings — Tamarind, Capers, Birch — and the room demand in that plan demonstrably pools in the smaller-plate buildings. A 1,081+ sqft family flat next to that reads one way: the whole-unit let, priced deliberately inside the plate-class spread, furnished if you want the top of it. The pet picture is unpublished; corridor context is offer-level (M Arisa and The Capers fly pet flags) and pet-friendly setups earn roughly 15-20% more where allowed, market context from the operator registry. SPEEDHOME coliving is cat-friendly — cats welcome in our coliving rooms — whatever the handbook says; the offer is our policy, the by-law variance is one line in the same letter.

FAQ
What yield does The Fennel give?
Worked, listing-example-basis and labelled: on the RM750,000 1,237-sqft iRumah example, RM1,600 x 12 = RM19,200 = 2.6% gross and RM3,800 x 12 = RM45,600 = 6.1% gross, before the 2.19% processing fee. The spread is the finding — plate class and furnishing decide where you land. No transacted file exists; Brickz is absent on both shapes and the re-sweep is flagged.
Can you rent out rooms at The Fennel?
No Fennel room card exists this sweep. The master plan's room demand sits in sibling buildings — The Birch at RM850 with 230 requests, Bistari at RM670 — while Fennel's 1,081-1,690 sqft plates are family-flat class. See the room rental and co-living guide.
Is short stay allowed at The Fennel?
Zero Fennel-named Airbnb units exist; the corridor's short-stay demand runs in M Arisa (RM1,568 per five nights), M Centura (RM1,160) and a 21-pax gathering unit (RM2,857, 479 reviews) — other buildings. The JMB's written by-law text is the only permission that counts.
Are pets allowed at The Fennel?
The management's position is not published. Corridor context is offer-level — M Arisa and The Capers fly pet-friendly flags — and pet-friendly setups earn roughly 15-20% more where allowed, market context from the operator registry. SPEEDHOME coliving is cat-friendly — cats welcome in our coliving rooms; the offer is our policy, and the by-law variance travels in the same letter.
What running it looks like
Setup is three documents plus one discipline: the title copy, the JMB fee schedule (the RM0.28-vs-0.45 conflict settled), the written house rules — and plate-class pricing: quote the rent your plate and furnishing earn, not somebody else's card. The work is one clean family flat to a Sentul household or commuter — zero deposit, SPEEDHOME runs the listing, the viewings and the rent collection, and you approve the tenant before anything is signed. The plans sit on top: Standard at RM799 + SST a year, Protect at one month's rent, Protect+ at one and a half.
