Mantin: Condos, Apartments and Area Guide

Mantin grew from tin mining. One story says Europeans called the place "Mine Tin" and the name became Mantin. The older name Setul lives on in land titles as Mukim Setul. The railway from Kuala Lumpur to Seremban was finished in 1903 and passes through nearby Batang Benar, which brought dredges and a mining boom.

The town has a Sikh temple and St. Aloysius Catholic Church, both from around the turn of the 20th century. Outside the old town, the Legenda Education Group built a university township, Bandar Universiti Teknologi Lagenda, where most of our apartments are.

Pekan Mantin, Kampong Bahru Mantin, Mantin Dalam, Kampung Gebok, Pekan Pajam and Batu Sebelas are all polling districts of the Nilai state seat, inside the Seremban parliament seat (P.128). DOSM put the seat's median household income at RM 5,934 a month in 2024, for about 281,300 people.

The seat reaches into Seremban town and Nilai, so it is a broad figure. Seremban district had a median of RM 6,472 and the state RM 5,591.

We list few Mantin buildings in NAPIC, and they rarely sell. Our 5 matched buildings had 13 sales in 2023 at a median of RM 93 psf (RM 95,000). Note: 10 of the 13 sales were at Bdr Uni. Tekn. Lagenda, so one project shapes this figure. NAPIC files that project under the township name; the units are Sri Palma Villa. Only 3 sales were recorded in 2024 and none since.

For a better guide, all condo and apartment sales in Seremban district had a median of RM 251 psf in 2024. In the Nilai buildings we matched it was RM 260 psf.
