WM Senibong partners RHB for 110pct green home financing

KUALA LUMPUR: Johor-based property developer WM Senibong Bhd has partnered with RHB Banking Group to secure the newly enhanced RHB green home financing programme, enabling homebuyers to access up to 110 per cent financing for eligible green-certified residential developments.

Under the scheme, purchasers can obtain full 100 per cent financing for the property value, plus an additional 10 per cent to cover mortgage reducing term assurance (MRTA), credit level term assurance (CLTA), and other entry costs.

With loan tenures of up to 35 years, the programme provides an accessible pathway for Malaysians to invest in sustainable homes without increasing their financial burden.

The financing is available for WM Senibong's flagship projects, including Waterway Peaks Tower 1 & 2, Kew Green 1 & 2, Kew Woods, Topaz Apartments 1 & 2, and Hillview Serviced Apartments.

Securing this green home financing with RHB marks an important milestone for WM Senibong, said Chan Wei Chun, director of business development and corporate finance.

"This partnership allows us to offer homebuyers financing solutions that ease their upfront commitments while supporting a smoother journey into homeownership. Beyond the immediate benefits, it reinforces our commitment to integrating sustainability into our developments and delivering long-term value to our residents and the communities we serve," he said.

Jeffrey Ng Eow Oo, managing director of group community banking at RHB, added that the programme responds to growing demand for sustainable, future-ready homes.

"Through our partnership with WM Senibong, we are helping more Malaysians access green-certified homes that offer long-term value, efficiency, and a sustainable way of living. This forms part of our wider commitment to encouraging responsible development nationwide," he said.

To qualify for the financing, projects must obtain recognised green building certification.

In the first quarter of 2026, Hillview and Kew Woods were awarded the GOLD provisional GreenRE certification under the residential category, following Topaz in 2025, Waterway Peaks and Kew Green in 2024.

Looking ahead, WM Senibong plans to expand its portfolio of green and sustainable developments and remains open to future partnerships that support ESG-driven initiatives, ensuring sustainability remains central to its long-term vision.
