Damansara Jaya (SS22) shops for rent and for sale: market examples
Where is Damansara Jaya and what is it known for?
Damansara Jaya, also known as SS22, is one of Petaling Jaya's older planned neighbourhoods, sitting between Damansara Utama (SS21), SS2 and Taman Tun Dr Ismail. It is mostly landed homes on quiet, tree-lined roads, which gives the commercial centre a loyal, higher income catchment. Atria Shopping Gallery anchors the area, and the surrounding shop rows have become known for independent cafés, brunch spots and long-running family restaurants. Damansara Uptown is a short walk away, so the two centres share visitors.
Main shop streets: Jalan SS22/21 and the neighbouring Jalan SS22/x rows around Atria.
How much is shop rent in Damansara Jaya?

| Type | Typical range | Typical size | Per sq ft |

Typical (middle half of recent adverts), from 14 rent and 14 sale listings in the last six months. Tenure of sale units: freehold.
All of the shoplots for sale with tenure stated are freehold (14 of 14 adverts).
The sale figures come from a small number of adverts and lean towards larger corner and main-road buildings, so standard intermediate shoplots may change hands for less. Owners here rarely sell, and the best units are often let before they reach the portals.
Which ground-floor businesses do well in Damansara Jaya?
- Specialty café and brunch: Damansara Jaya has a strong café following.
- Family restaurants and Chinese F&B: residents and Uptown visitors dine here regularly.
- Bakery and dessert: high spending households support premium treats.
- Clinic, dental, aesthetics and pharmacy: an affluent, mature catchment values healthcare close to home.
- Bank and wealth services: established households with savings and investments.
- Florist, pet grooming and salon: lifestyle services for nearby homes.
What should tenants and investors check before signing?
- Parking: weekend brunch hours and Atria traffic fill the bays quickly; check customer access.
- Row by row footfall: rows facing Atria and the main roads are busier than inner lanes.
- Older buildings: confirm electrical capacity, exhaust routing and grease trap for F&B.
- Licensing: Damansara Jaya is under MBPJ; confirm approved use, signage and any outdoor seating.
- Investment: all recent sale units were freehold and supply is thin, which supports resale. Buying the whole shoplot adds rental income from the upper floors, and ground floors attract covenant tenants such as banks, convenience chains, pharmacies, clinics and F&B chains.
