description This research explores the housing preferences of university students buying their first home in the Klang Valley area. In this bustling urban setting, they encounter distinctive challenges while balancing their academic pursuits with homeownership. The primary objective of this research is to identify the factors that affect the housing preferences of first-time homebuyers among university students in the Klang Valley. Quantitative data was collected through a survey questionnaire administered to a specific group of university students who are going to buy their first home in the future.
