Yes the newcomers (be the outstation or foreigners) will still flock to klcc for work. this newcomer may not like the heavy traffic (if they live outside klcc), or they have no car and need to live near to workplace, or they not familiar with KL and prefer to live within klcc.  (especially foreigner)

when i was living in Shanghai, i chose to live in the city centre (even the rental is much higher than outskirt, 2-3x). coz i am not familiar with outskirt shanghai. travelling by taxi also easier and cheaper.
my colleagues (from other province ) also prefer to buy home not too far from shanghai city centre (where the offices are located). most of them take mrt + short distance taxi to work. very few buy home far from mrt , i mean short distance by taxi or city bus to mrt station. home near to mrt is very much higher price. many still prefer to buy a little further away from mrt. 

i still think that future jobs opportunities will be concentrate in city centre area.  look at big cities like Tokyo, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Taipei, Bangkok, Jakarta etc.
there are so many new coming office in KL Sentral, klcc and nearby. many MNC, big local co, GLC will eventually fill these offices. we dont see much office building in outskirt kl. new comers , foreigners, MNC employee still prefer to live near office. driving to work will be expensive, eg traffic jam, oil, car park, car maintenance, time etc.

1st of all i'm never innocent
2nd yes i'm indeed pointing at you and you are smart enough to know that. Should not you be asking yourself why am i picking on you?

*now look who is talking should we go back to V3 and look into your comments? Now talking about so what if you were wrong? Then you should not have act smart and insisted that the property market would be going down the drain. Again as simple as that if there are anyone who would have followed your "professional" advise.. they would have lost their hard earn cash. You really think someone like me would be listening to you who boasted oneself paying 600k tax?

In fact i don't quite understand your intention in the 1st place. You are picking articles from US and the rest of the world but you've never analyze the market in Malaysia. How much do you actually know about the property market before you first commenting? If i were you, i'll rather be silent and observe instead of babbling blank points which mislead everyone. This is the property talk forum not kopitiam. If you do not have something concrete i recon you not to share your 2 cents worth.

*I'm impressed with the words highlighted in your comment. You are the person and another guy talking about the bubble as if it would happen NEAR FUTURE. While the rest were talking about correction, prevention and continuity of market growth.

*Haha before calling someone else a cry baby why not you look into yourself? to be honest until now i'll still say whatever post coming from you would still be CRAP and RUBBISH. I don't think that's provoking at times you just need to know what VALID POINTS and what are GARBAGE. I guess the best way for me to filter your comments was to put you in my ignore list 

I think we are in safe hands with Dr Zeti running BNM. To me,she's a 5 star governor n she has made Msia market v sound.

My concern is only for bullshit products like overpriced soho n hotel suites for sale. 

bro, can help share which apartment?

Rather than fighting or debating so of you may call it, why don't we make this forum a constructive one. Lets say if the price of property increases in one area, we share it, if the prices decreases in another, we share it too. Then everyone will be happy      no?

sea park apartments, based on what i've seen in iproperty. there are many apartments in pj, not sure if similar case 

Yesterday met my friend who are in the mortgage field. I asked him regarding overprice of housing properties in KV. He told me that housing property price will fall at the end of this year or the earlier of next year.

If I were you, I will ask him the second question "how many times you hv make the wrong predictions? Since when?", apart fr accountant and valuer, mortgage broker is one of the most conservative people I ever met pertaining to property mkt forcerst (in general). Anyway somehow one day they will predict correctly...

mortgage broker? what is his justification behind that statement?
is he facing lower business these days?

well i'm hearing the same thing from my friends who is a housing agent. Business no good. Slow transaction.

bankers are telling me not so bad stories. Business is ok, but definitely not as good as last year. A lot of applicants but approval rate is very low.

Hehe, that's what most of us are likely to be doing. Talking bout prop prices from bangsar to Setia Alam. From North to South. However someone would continue to talk about the downfall of the property price in Euro Zone and Americana. Can't help if they continue to think they are staying there.

Hehe which friend of yours? Is he a big shot in MY? I've being hearing this and hoping this for every year... but it had yet to happen.

But the thing is many people with vested interest are active in this forum, i.e., mortgage brokers, RE agents, developers, builders, building material suppliers, hardcore flippers, bankers etc.

When someone says something bad about the property market other than BBBlindness which might affect their rice bowl, the party with vested interest would stand together and rout you out! If I was in RE industry, I would do the same either this is just human nature. I believe you get my point.
