If I tell u that:
-Local owned factories shutting down one-by-one.
-Foreign corp cutting production or shifting production out of M'sia.
-Old farmers selling their land, cashing the gain & retire.
-Manager grade income cannot afford a double storey link house in KL/PJ.
-50% of the high-end condos in KL are vacant.

Would u still believe the next 10 yrs M'sia property/economy will boom?!

msia property is now headed for a slowdown. do you agree?

now see this....

Investment options are not limited to FD and properties. Doesnt always have to be FD vs Property, and each option also has its own merit depending on the situation. Now the interest rate is low, but that doesnt mean it's going to stay low forever.

In the event of hyper-inflation, yeah, 100k today worth 50k in few years time. But when that happen, the profit of 100k from properties also worth 50k only.. or worse, the price increase is lower than FD rates.. always can go both ways.

Ask the Japanese whether property will ALWAYS goes up or not.
History is a good teacher, but we are bad students.

very interesting point of view. usually people see an upward trending correlation between new launch prices and sub sale prices.

maybe its a Gen Y thing , but i wouldn't mind having an outdated facade if it means paying 20% lower than the new launches.

but then again.... im not gen y.
