Founded on 21st May 1970 as the Housing Developers Association (HDA) Malaysia, the Association is headquartered in Petaling Jaya, Selangor. It was officially rebranded as the Real Estate and Housing Developers’ Association Malaysia (REHDA) on 13th October 2000.

From just 13 pioneering members, REHDA has grown substantially, establishing itself as a key player in Malaysia’s socio-economic development. Today, it represents over 1,600 developers across Peninsular Malaysia, who collectively contribute to approximately 80% of the Country’s total real estate development.

Beyond residential, commercial, and industrial projects, REHDA members play an active role in shaping vibrant and sustainable communities. Their developments incorporate modern planning principles, seamlessly integrating green spaces, infrastructure and smart technologies to enhance liveability.

As the leading representative body for private property developers, REHDA focuses on advocacy and governance, ensuring that industry perspectives are effectively communicated to government agencies and authorities. The Association actively engages with policymakers to advocate for regulations and policies that drive industry growth while balancing economic and environmental sustainability.

Respected by both the public and private sectors, REHDA remains committed to nation-building and enhancing quality of life through sustainable property development. Through its initiatives and collaborations, the Association continues to champion industry excellence and drive the evolution of Malaysia’s property sector.
