yewkhuay, how did you come up with 1200/m?
Yes BLR has increased from 5.55% to 5.80% but that only an increase of 0.25%. Simple cal would be RM 250,000 *0.25% = 625 p.a. = 52.00 pm
Currently bank's are still offering BLR -1.65% which would be around 1000++.
Bearing in mid rental for f/f studio (345 sqft) NOW is RM 1200-1400.
Further with the imminent implemetation of GST in 2011,2012 prices of apartments will go up....... whether rental or cap gains
