The other three property types are high-rise homes, detached houses and semi-detached houses. Their price indices were up 5.3%, 4.3% and 4.4% respectively.<\/p>\n<p>However, the report added that THPI growth rate slowed since 2015, when it rose only 6.9% and then slightly increased by 7.4% in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>As for states, Selangor took pole position with an annual increase of 7.6% in its housing price index, followed by Kuala Lumpur where the index grew by 7.3%.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the housing price indices of the other two major states \u2013 Johor and Penang recorded a growth of 6.6% and 5.2% respectively.<\/p>\n<p><a
