HOC Is Extended Again – Should You Be Taking Advantage?

The Home Ownership Campaign (HOC) is a government initiative introduced to provide support for homebuyers looking to purchase a property. First introduced in 2019, this campaign helps to promote homeownership in Malaysia.

However, due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the subsequent Movement Control Order (MCO), in order to strengthen Malaysian economy, Prime Minister announced the reintroduction of HOC 2020-2021 as part of Short-Term Economic Recovery Plan (PENJANA) initiative last year.

And recently with the high number of Covid-19 cases, the government has enforced FMCO and the HOC has been extended once again until 31st December 2021.

What does it mean to you?

With a growing desire to own a home during Movement Control Order (MCO) especially in urban areas, you will be enjoying financial incentives as part of the scheme.

What financial incentives you are asking?

This round HOC will carry the same set as benefits as previously in HOC 2020, particularly:

  • Stamp duty exemption. You will be getting a stamp duty exemption on the Instrument of Transfer and Instrument of Loan Agreement for the purchase of residential homes priced between RM300,000 to RM2.5 million.
  • 10% discount. You will be able to enjoy at least a 10% discount on your property purchasing price from the property developer.

*Effective for Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA) signed between 1st June 2020 to 31st December 2021.

Should you be taking advantage of HOC?

Yes, you should! With all the benefits you are receiving, you get to save some of your money and use it for something else like the renovation cost or the furniture.

Which project is under HOC?

The HOC 2020-2021 only applies to new properties registered under the campaign and must be registered with the relevant authority in each region:
