the reason property prices keep escalating is because today we have more gurus who promote real estate investment to the mass public. as a result, people are going into real estate investment in a major way like we have not seen before.

If one could not afford to buy property when oil price were below $100 per barrel, I would say it would be very difficult to afford one when it reaches $250. By that time, looking for new job would become very difficult and yearly increment would be below average if there is any.

QUOTE(prody @ Feb 22 2011, 03:55 PM) V1 is giving some interesting information. V2Simple check tells me that either people are getting more fed up with property prices and/or speculators are trying harder to defend the high prices. Time it took for 500 postings in v1: 0-500: 551 days 501-1000: 250 days 1001-1500: 65 days 1501-2000: 45 days 2001-2500: 42 days  0-500: 24 days!!  |

QUOTE(lch78 @ Jun 23 2011, 02:05 PM) Singapore has HDB, which citizens/PR can purchase a HDB flat as long as you got married without need to pay downpayment and the installment can be paid direct through CPF money. In other words, citizens/PR only need to find a spouse and they get to own a home without utilizing personal funds. Am in Singapore and read the newspaper that new HDB flat launching is selling at 880k. Good thing is they give a hefty discount of 120k . |
