Why do you need a banker to explain? How about people whom work in Singapore and buy houses in JB?

If you really make 4.8K (gross salary before deductions and expenses,) you can barely afford a house in a decent neighborhood in KL.

As long as the income document is valid and acceptable by the banks respective credit officer, yes u can.

banks will factor in the currency exchange at the time of application.

Can la.. but u need IRAS instead of payslip. My loan was approved based on my IRAS 2009. And they do consider the convertion.
