About JB Guide

JB Guide is a free, independent guide for people looking at property in Johor Bahru, especially buyers from Singapore. It collects the calculators, checklists, tax notes, exchange rates, project maps and file tools that buyers keep asking for, in English, Chinese and Bahasa.

Who runs it

The site is run by Kelvin Yap, an independent property agent with One Union Realty in Johor Bahru. Some pages (the project list and the WhatsApp buttons) are there to help buyers contact him. The calculators, tax cards, FAQ and tools are free to use and need no sign-up.

How we keep it accurate

  • Rules, taxes and policies are written from official or major-news sources, and each page shows the date it was last checked.
  • Project distances are real driving routes, not straight-line guesses. Walking times are shown only where they are practical.
  • The PDF and image tools run inside your browser; your files are not uploaded.

Property rules change often. Use this site to get oriented, then confirm with your lawyer, bank or the relevant authority before you commit money. See the Disclaimer.
