Abstract: The aim of this study is to analyze and evaluate Malaysia’s housing affordability crisis and to provide comparative insights into housing affordability policies in other countries. After a thorough literature review and analysis, the findings of this study offer policy recommendations for addressing Malaysia’s housing affordability issues. The findings indicate that resolving Malaysia’s housing affordability crisis requires a collaborative effort involving the government, private developers, and financial institutions. By adopting a holistic and inclusive strategy, Malaysia can develop a sustainable housing market that ensures long-term affordability and accessibility for all income groups, particularly the B40 and M40, who are most at risk of being excluded from homeownership.
