yup, i agree. most agents are terrible, greedy and cocky. however, the buying power is still with us. if you found unit that u like, just offer them slightly lower than market value and reason with them. Tell them this is my offer and if you can close this sale at my price, get back to me. Otherwise, good luck in your sale. There are plenty of properties out there, so take your time and choose wisely.

back to the topic, i think property price are still going strong for the new development. Lots of newly launch all "sold-out" within the first few days of launching and leftover with those units that is not high demand such as 4th,13th and 14th floor for apartments. Another reason is also because of the discounts given which ease the buyer's financial. Lots of RM3k/5k booking fees with 10% discount which makes it almost 100% loan.

subsale on the other hand is moving slower and there will be a possible of prices dropping slightly lower with the new implementation of 70% LTV. I mean, how many can actually fork out 30% deposit for their 3rd property? An average decent apartment will cost at least RM180k and 30% deposit will sum up to RM54k. Excluding stamping, lawyer, etc fees.

2 years ago, there are plenty double storey houses in USJ that sold at RM3xxk, now the same unit cost almost RM500k! i saw it with my own eyes
