For Bumi , of course it is unwise to buy bumi unit , but for non bumi it is good - provided you have cash and time to wait for state consent . All i can say is these , there is a guarantee return of at least 10% after the consent is given (normally within 1 year)
I do agree it is hard to offload a bumi unit , but it is easy to offload a non bumi unit , agree? Let just say there is loophole within the property cycle
But do the owner wanted to wait for 1 year for the buyer to obtain consent, or the cash buyer just fully paid 1st and in the event the consent cannot be obtained, it is his problem.
Please enlighten me what is the normal process.
I do know there is some lubang can settle the land office (yet depends on which land office) but it come with cost and if the seller know buyer can obtain the consent, he won't not sell so cheap.
So end of the day, i think after minus the hidden cost and time, saving maybe 5% only.
