Championship Golf Lifestyle: The Jack Nicklaus Legacy Course
Forest City Golf Villa residents enjoy an unprecedented golf lifestyle surrounded by true championship courses. The crown jewel is the prestigious Legacy Golf Course, masterfully designed by golf's "Golden Bear," Jack Nicklaus, alongside his son, Jack Nicklaus II. This par-72, 7,386-yard masterpiece is an international magnet for elite golfers from Taiwan, Singapore, South Korea, Vietnam, and Thailand.
Unlike typical Southeast Asian courses, the Legacy Course boasts a unique "desert-like" landscape. It challenges players with sprawling waste areas, sculpted bunkers, and magnificent lakes, all beautifully juxtaposed against lush, fully-turfed Paspalum Platinum fairways. The strategic risk-reward dynamics and sweeping Pulai River views create a memorable golfing experience for all handicap levels.
Garden Terrace homebuyers receive a complimentary 5-year or 7-year Premier Golf Resort membership. This eliminates expensive green fees and tee-time hassles, providing unlimited access to the Legacy and Classic courses. Imagine walking from your private villa directly to a world-class fairway—a true luxury that sets Forest City apart as the premier destination for global golf investments.

About Forest City Golf Villa Garden Terrace
Forest City Special Financial Zone: Unprecedented Incentives
In August 2023, Prime Minister Anwar announced Forest City as Malaysia's Special Financial Zone, officially confirmed in September 2024 by Johor Regent HRH Tunku Ismail and other dignitaries. This designation positions Forest City as an emerging futuristic urban development and international financial center offering incentives unavailable elsewhere in Malaysia. The Special Financial Zone status transforms Forest City into a unique investment destination combining residential excellence with extraordinary financial benefits.
Key Special Financial Zone incentives include Malaysia's first 0% tax up to 20 years for family offices with minimum RM30 million Assets Under Management (AUM). Tech-related companies enjoy 15% personal income tax for knowledge workers and 5% corporate income tax, attracting high-value talent and businesses. MM2H qualification starts from just RM500K with significantly lower fixed deposit requirements compared to the standard RM1 million threshold, making Malaysian residency highly accessible for international buyers from Taiwan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, and Vietnam.
50% Stamp Duty Exemption & 0% RPGT: Substantial Tax Savings
New units sold in Forest City Island 1 enjoy a 50% stamp duty exemption, delivering immediate substantial savings on your property purchase. Stamp duty typically represents 1-4% of property value depending on the price tier—the 50% exemption cuts this cost in half, translating to massive savings on properties ranging from RM500K to RM2 million. This upfront cost reduction improves purchase affordability and capital efficiency, allowing buyers to allocate more funds toward furnishings or investment diversification.
Real Property Gains Tax (RPGT) for non-Malaysian citizens drops to 0% after 5 years of ownership, matching Malaysian citizen treatment—unprecedented equality in property tax policy. Forest City's 0% RPGT after 5 years eliminates exit taxation, enabling non-Malaysian buyers to realize full capital appreciation when selling without government tax eroding gains.
V120 Villa: Efficient Family Living
The V120 Villa (33×60 ft land, approx 2,034 sq.ft. built-up, 2 Bedrooms / 2 Bathrooms, RM1.1M-1.6M) provides efficient landed family living balancing space, privacy, and affordability. The land size accommodates essential elements—covered parking, private yard, building footprint, and outdoor living spaces—without an excessive maintenance burden. The two-bedroom configuration perfectly suits young families, retirees, or traveling golf enthusiasts from abroad using the second bedroom for guests.
V160 Villa: Premium Rooftop Living
The V160 Villa (34×60 ft land, approx 2,917 sq.ft. built-up, 3 Bedrooms / 3 Bathrooms, RM1.6M-2.0M) represents the premium Garden Terrace offering with an open rooftop terrace, an additional bedroom, and expanded living spaces. The Open Terrace distinguishes the V160 as the ultimate outdoor entertainment and relaxation space, boasting expansive views across Forest City's golf courses and high greenery landscaping. Rooftop living capitalizes on tropical breezes and elevated perspectives—ideal for evening entertaining or post-golf relaxation.
