Just sent you a PM 

Agree with u, oso medium cost apartments will be high in demand

below 250k for me personally

u r correct bro...but this is my opinion only

i think condo and apartment are different,correct me if i'm wrong

new 1 i dun think can get la bro
i only focus on subsale though

that project is in australia 

OMG, can you stop "detecting" me & start "following" me ?

From what I understand, big developer's margin is quite low, net profit after tax shd stand somewhere 9%-15 max. There are a lot of hidden costs. my cousin is a GM of a developer in Penang, he says that his company nett profit is bout 11% only. Outsiders dun really understand their operational cost.

Guys, subjective question here I know. But if someone earning 5-8k. How much can he borrow maximum? And for how many years?

Reason asking because I went to this bank. And what they said is a bit crappy. Just a rough idea.

I personally find the below info most compelling. No hard feeling.

Quote:
2800 - 300(kwsp+income tax) - 1772(home loan) - 200(insurans) - 200(daily meals) - 200(family) = 128(great num for saving)

there are still plenty of condo selling around 200k in KV. i bought a subsales condo in setapak at 180k and now rented at 1.3k

yes, new launch is selling 300psf or even 500psf but they will only ready by 2016-2017, no one know what will happen then. some bet it will rise further due to hi inflation, RM become smaller (BNM printing more $), and another camp say it will collasp due to oversupply. it is up to individual.
for me, i dun think the price will go back to pre 2009 and i strongly believe i will never get a condo at 200k-300k by 2016 time. since i m on rental play, so long the yield is better than REIT i m ok. new condo always has better design, concept, furnishing, materials so they asking for higher selling price/rental.  since i bought my old condo at lower price so my yield/rental will be always better than the new condo (and easier to rent out). they r still many ppl coming to KV to find job every year and they need a place to stay. when the home price become so high, they r more likely to rent from me.
