The National Housing Scheme (RPN) Kampong Tanah Jambu has 1,522 houses under development, including an additional 356 houses under the STKRJ program. The majority of the dwellings are semi-detached or terrace houses. By May 2013, around 430 terrace houses were formally granted to recipients, with ongoing allocations planned throughout the year. The Housing Development Department has also considered a potential vertical housing project within the site, which could add 2,500 units, although no further details on this proposal have been provided. [4] As of 2 May 2017, Telbru's connectivity efforts to over 15,500 households for housing schemes under the Housing Development Department have been surpassed by the installation of Fibre-to-the-Home (FTTH) networks for inhabitants of the RPN Kampong Tanah Jambu project. [5]

After the foundation-laying ceremony on 8 August 2023, 950 units of terrace homes for the RPN Kampong Tanah Jambu are expected to be completed in 2024.  The Phase 7 residences at RPN Kampong Tanah Jambu are being built in accordance with the 11th National Development Plan. [6] Thong & Thong Sdn Bhd is the contractor managing the B$96 million project. [7]
