they only help to drive house price ever higher, while the profit from the sale goes to someone's swiss bank account.

If not mistaken, when they buy or sell, there is a huge amount of tax they need to pay. But again, he can charge all this to his buyer.

In a stagnant housing market, foreigners buying into the market can help to kickstart the market as their purchases will flow to the local sellers who can in turn use the money to purchase another property.

On the flip side, not all foreign buyers will buy and hold. Too much speculative buying will worsen the situation.

Generally increased property transactions will result in increase govt revenues due to stamp duties, transaction fees etc etc. However the profits earn may be remitted out of the country.

Overall, some foreign purchase is good but too much is not good. Thats probably why the Msian govt increased the min threshold for foreign purchases from RM250k to RM500k.

The house he bought is about RM14-15 million.

back to main topic, this is not right to say that foreigner just buy to flip and thus no benefit to the country.

Becoz, local people also can buy and flip and keep the money in the pocket (without spending) or buy an oversea property (Australia, UK, etc) which is quite common now.

Then main point is that, with foreigner participation, the market is expected to be bigger as it is not only limited to local demand. Of course, foreigner only constitute minimum percentage.

Yes, of course when more people buying the price might be increasing as well...but again this is common in a situation when economy is moving forward.....i dont see good economy but price and demand shrinking...

If not mistaken, the government had ban the foreigners buying any houses in Selangor country. No matter 500k plus.

Most banks have issue for release money as solicitors stuck at state consent and land office.
