Development in Mont Kiara for the last 10 yrs shall be used as yardstick to predict what going to happen in the near future.

Slow down and stagnant for the coming years.

Currently many waiting with cash for bargain hunting. Some smart alec already disposed nearly all gains from last 3 yrs waiting for properties/stock to plunge due to uncertainly after GE13.

Unless global recession hit us like what happen in 1997, which many will be out of jobs, pay cut, factories close down or work half a week, lelong like pasar malam then you get mega sale. So you say you want this to happen or not?

Other than tat, many will hold on to dear job, dear properties, hoping and wishing sky is the limit. While non owners watching and waiting to enter.

Tat's current prediction prior GE13.

Guess what he trying to say was there are more opportunities in developing countries compares with developed countries whereby competition is stiff, opportunities easily copied etc.

Eg. rental return of developed countries generally lower compares developing countries. Another eg appreciation of Sg HDB/EC price lesser than ~1.5x much lesser compares KL over the span of 10 yrs. But tat mainly due to government intervention.

Ok for apple to apple comparison. 4 condo in PJ, 3 leasehold, 1 freehold, launched almost at the same time, difference 1 yr apart.

i Condo A, leasehold, after 8 yrs price appreciation ~ x1.4
ii. Condo B, freehold, after 8 yrs price appreciation > x2.4
iii. Condo C, leasehold, after 8 yrs price appreciation ~ x2.4
iv. Condo D, leasehold, after 12 yrs price appreciation~ x2

Bet those macro economist, financial specialist, global financial analyst, tokist, boastist, booshitist, gloom&doomist can spot which one to buy as we have gone thru many ups and downs and uncertainties over the last 12 yrs.
