Driven by the Ministry of Housing and Local Government, the <strong>BTS 10:90 system requires buyers to pay only a 10 percent deposit<\/strong> upon signing the Sale and Purchase Agreement, <strong>while the remaining 90 percent is paid only after full completion, issuance of the Certificate of Completion and Compliance and formal delivery of Vacant Possession<\/strong>. This approach shifts construction and financing responsibilities back to developers and significantly reduces buyer exposure to project delays or failures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Importantly, the government has confirmed the policy will not be mandatory, ensuring that small and mid-sized developers are not pushed out of the market. To encourage voluntary adoption, the government is preparing a suite of incentives, building on existing benefits such as fast-tracked planning approvals and exemption from the 3 percent Housing Development Account deposit. New incentives will be detai miled under the <strong>13th Malaysia Plan<\/strong> and the <strong>2026 Budget. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The BTS model enhances homebuyer protection by drastically reducing the <strong>risk of &ldquo;sick&rdquo;<\/strong> or abandoned projects, while also promoting higher construction quality since developers receive the bulk of payment only after delivering a fully compliant product. With the national goal of achieving zero sick and abandoned<strong> projects by 2030<\/strong>, this voluntary BTS framework has the potential to redefine buyer confidence and elevate Malaysia&rsquo;s housing delivery standards for the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-4b4c043e-8943-4db8-b0d8-5fc04a6c7591\" href=\"https:\/\/iqiglobal-web-revamp.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/wp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/05100838\/FA-Newsletter-Dec-3.pdf\">Discover more here:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/iqiglobal-web-revamp.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com\/wp\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/05100838\/FA-Newsletter-Dec-3.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-4b4c043e-8943-4db8-b0d8-5fc04a6c7591\">Download Now!<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Muhazrol Muhamad GVP, Head of Bumiputra Segment Malaysia is moving toward a safer and more buyer-focused property landscape through the Build Then Sell (BTS) 10:90 model, marking a major evolution from the traditional Sell-Then-Build structure.
