new trend is auntie uncle, and fresh new out of college investors buy buy buy all the new launch.

those big times investors still buying but they go for bulk buying from developers. small investors do not have strong reseources to fight with them.

noticed a few months back, classified have increase adverts.
when i checked back recently, noticed the thinning classifieds.
dunno how to treat this piece of news. is it bullish or bearish?

that's why dun simply "quote" other people's pics and post one line like "i agree" - dem annoying.

Other property forum also more quiet now.

The silence below the tragedy???

yes, the ones i follow realestate and myrealestate both very slow these days.

noticed many taikos MIA?

time to take some rest ?

What about changing target to invest in shoplots?

it is very true. after investors bought few residential prop, they find troublesome to manage them and start to buy shops coz it is easier to manage. I am one of them , hehe. so i foresee residential will be slower while shops will be very very hot. now investors are not buying 1-2 shops but 5-10 shops in one go, eg those successful bizman. (they used to buy 10-20 residence prop in one go). now i hardly find any good new shops to buy. Coz i dun have the power to nego with developers to buy 5-10 units. (oni managed to buy subsale recently, sigh)

Added on July 25, 2011, 9:04 amit is more difficult to invest in shops coz the units are limited, all sapu-ed by richies, unlike residential always has 500-800 units available.

Added on July 25, 2011, 9:10 ambut i still believed shops will be better potential coz msian like to do shopping. (survey results from one of the famous consultant ), haha

also many gerai-gerai will move to shops eventually.. noticed msia is the onli country that allowed so many gerai2 (even at parking lots, road divider, road side, kaki lima, under tree etc). i never see this in HK, China, Singapore, Korea, Japan, Taiwan etc.

sholots - only for for deep pockets. lots of vacant ones for years all over kv, owners just keep. subsale proven rentals won;t come cheap.
spending power of people rising or falling? this fresh article does not bode well for retailers; many seem to eating at home, shopping less:

gerais... quite true... because the weather permits it, and lesen lords permit it.
stagnant incomes is main explanation why maresia can't get out of this to join sg-hk-korea but stuck or regress to cambodia-vietnam-indon style.

Yes definitely I belief further rise possible to properties

it is possible if salary is not stagnant..
but then, my bro in law said, even seremban props increases.. last time always said that, u wan cheaper landed house, go seremban..
last year, 250k++ still able to get a double storey house, now become 350k++
aiseh.. ppl rather travel further if there's cheaper props.. now seremban house also increases already.. haih..

Recently I went to one of property launching. I talk to two aunties and ask why they buy? investment or goreng?

One aunty said it is for her son. Her son still studying in secondary school.

The other one said also for her daugther ... her daughter is now working maybe salary still low. She said her daugther salary definately kenot afford a property and nowaday property increase faster than the salary. So she bought it just in case her daughter wants to move out and stay in it. .

Wahlau eh, I hope I got parents like this.

Mcm ni, sure property price will escalate to new high further ....

Should doesn't mean will. I still remember previous crisis, when the gov keep saying bullish even before impending disaster.

If the ship is sinking, do tell the rest everything is under control, so you can safely climb to the life boat.

Just broke the neutral balance.

i wonder.. why they dun start to look for a house for their grandson and granddaugther also... definately they cannot affort too...

Becoz their grandson/grandaughter will most probably be taken care by their own parents. Similar to what happen in China now ...

some youngster nowadays so hang fuk!

Haha bro you should buy some for your kids oso ma

Ya maybe should invest one for my kids as well. Bcoz now you only stay one house, maybe you have few kids. Then better keep few houses. As a parent is very hard who to give if only one house.
