Abstract: Using a systematic literature review, we explored land administration and collaboration in Malaysia's affordable housing systems. It identifies trends based on the publication year, journals, and methodologies. The review found that qualitative research was the most common approach, emphasizing the in-depth exploration of the topic. Content analysis revealed that the Malaysian government plays a pivotal role in land administration, with federal and state agencies significantly influencing financial, planning, and housing development schemes. Land administration challenges include limited availability, high costs, and inefficient administrative processes. This study stresses the need to form coherent policies, coordination, and transparency to enhance land administration. This study discusses the importance of land availability, allocation, and management in ensuring the feasibility and accessibility of affordable housing projects. This study intends to inform policy interventions by providing various recommendations extracted from articles. These findings can be used to develop actionable strategies that support sustainable and equitable housing development in Malaysia.
