London-based real estate agency chain Chestertons Global is partnering with Rahim & Co International Property Consultants, headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, to strengthen its capabilities across valuation and consultancy in Malaysia.

The aim is to better support both domestic and cross-border clients looking for credible, research-led guidance and professional valuation support as they navigate Malaysia’s “increasingly complex” real estate environment, both firms said in a joint release on Feb 9.

The tie-up also comes as the property market in Malaysia shifts towards quality, resilience and long-term value in key segments. Following a strong 2025, urban residential segments are seeing continued demand, while institutional interest is growing in commercial and industrial assets, according to the press release.

Chestertons Global executive director, Mohamed Mussa, described Malaysia as one of Southeast Asia’s most strategically positioned markets, with activity spanning residential demand, industrial growth corridors and a maturing commercial landscape.

He added that Rahim & Co brings a combination of nationwide scale, deep valuation expertise and advisory strength, making them an ideal partner for Chestertons Global as it expands its platform in Southeast Asia.

Rahim & Co executive chairman, Abdul Rahim Abdul Rahman, noted that the strategic affiliation with the UK firm reflects Malaysia’s growing position as a regional investment destination.
