LBS, RHB offer 95 pct financing for SkyRia @ D'Island

Under the RHB Green Financing Schemes, prospective homeowners are offered several benefits, including a loan margin of up to 95 per cent and additional coverage of 5.0 per cent for mortgage-reducing term assurance (MRTA) or mortgage-reducing takaful term (MRTT). 

These exclusive packages are designed to make sustainable living more accessible and affordable for Malaysians, according to Tan Sri Ir (Dr) Lim Hock San, group executive chairman of LBS Bina.

This collaboration comes on the back of the Provisional Silver in GreenRE Certification, which was awarded to Skyria as part of LBS's commitment to building a greener future. 

GreenRE certifications are recognised credentials awarded to buildings or construction projects that meet specific sustainability criteria.

Located within D' Island Puchong, a major township and one of LBS Bina Group's signature developments, SkyRia is part of this expansive community, offering a peaceful lakeside living experience.

SkyRia, comprising two residential blocks with 999 units, is projected to deliver a gross development value of RM457 million. The units range in price from RM250,000 to RM507,000.

Since its launch, the project has seen strong demand, highlighting the appeal of LBS's sustainable housing offerings, Lim said. 

Designed to blend luxury with sustainability, SkyRia offers 29 facilities focused on enhancing lifestyle while minimising environmental impact, making it an ideal choice for eco-conscious buyers.

"Our partnership with RHB Bank is a key milestone in our mission to provide affordable and sustainable housing. By offering green financing options, we are making it easier for homeowners to own eco-friendly homes and reinforcing our commitment to environmental stewardship," Lim said.

SkyRia @ D'Island embodies LBS Bina's vision of high-quality and sustainable living.

Lim said LBS Bina is deeply committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050, a goal that guides all of the company's projects, including SkyRia at D'Island. 

"Our approach involves implementing cutting-edge green technologies, optimising energy efficiency, and promoting environmentally responsible practices across our developments. This roadmap to net zero is not just an ambition but a reflection of our responsibility to future generations," he said.

Jeffrey Ng Eow Oo, managing director of group community banking at RHB Banking Group, said this initiative with LBS Bina aligns with the banking group's vision of promoting sustainable living. 

"At RHB, we are committed to leading the financial sector in driving sustainability through innovative green financing solutions. This collaboration is a significant step towards realising our five-year sustainability strategy and roadmap, where we aim to deploy RM50 billion in sustainable financing," he said.

Ng said RHB's focus is on supporting initiatives that contribute to a low-carbon economy and foster environmentally responsible development.

"By offering comprehensive green financing packages, we are not only facilitating access to eco-friendly homes but also reinforcing our role as a thought leader in sustainable finance. 

"We believe that by working together with like-minded partners like LBS, we can accelerate the transition to a more sustainable future and create lasting positive impacts for communities and the environment," he said.
