We take the stress out
of finding your new home
Your time matters. Whether you are an expat looking to rent, buy or invest we are here to assist you.
Finding your ideal property is never easy.
Finding a property in your own city is tough enough. Now imagine how much more complicated it can get when you have to do that in a foreign land.
Of course, you can do all these on your own. Or you can let us do all the heavy lifting so that you can focus on what truly matters to you.
Search
An ideal home is more than just the property itself. It’s also about being in the right neighbourhood, close to the amenities that matter to you, and so much more. Hence the search can be time-consuming.
Arrange
Filtering through numerous options, communicating with different agents and arranging viewings that can fit your schedule can become an overwhelming task.
Finalise
Real estate agents do not work for you, so navigating the entire closing process without a local helping hand can put you at a disadvantage.

Our Why
It all started when I (Ana) first moved to Malaysia and was trying to find a new home. I spent countless hours going through the listings, shortlisting my favourites, and contacting the agents to only realise that either: the information was misleading, the property was a duplication, or the property was no longer available. So, I had to restart the process all over again. Trust me, it is a total waste-of-time but I didn't know any better back then.
It wasn't until recently that I reached a breaking point when my Malaysian husband and I were trying to relocate again. That prompted us to start Noovida - a concierge service to help expats find housing in Malaysia in a stress-free way.
Drawing from our past experiences in finding homes for ourselves and our international hires, we want to design a straightforward, transparent and efficient house-hunting experience that puts the power back into your hands. Our ultimate aim is to help you save time to focus on things that truly matters to you.
We are looking forward to meeting you,
Ana Mouratidou & Marcus Toy
