I think it depends on location.. If you look at location such as Puchong and Kinara area the price is on high end n it keeps rising steadily.. On the other side places like Alam Impian, Setia Alam and Denai Alam the price is kind of stagnant.. Nt too much of increase or decrease in price in recent times..

Even if correction happens, most probably the so called "Next prime area" might take the biggest hit for DSL while for condo, most of the recent launches might have huge impact.. With the current inflation level, I don't think many ppl could even afford to pay the rental fees and also maintenance fees in future as living cost is going up too fast..

Nt many young ppl/family could afford high end condos.. It's worrying, landed has always been a good investment as in terms of long term appreciation is guaranteed but downside nt so suitable for rental purpose..

Mayb some locations but can't b used to judge the overall market situation.. But wat surprised me in recent days is, some of the agents told me tat the price is at the highest/peak so u might want to hold off for a few more months n some told me tat the price has appreciated way to fast in last 1-2 years so if u buy now n if the market crashes then it's not gone end gud for u... So some asking me to monitor the price and some told me to avoid buying now...

I find this couple of agents quite honest in their opinion and they seems to be very professional, quite hard to come across tis type of agents now days..

But even for new ones, I wonder how many ppl can afford those.. Just try searching for Qaseh kinrara... I wonder if we really have tat many ppl who can afford those 1 mil++ sub sale units..

Quite a number of new landed properties being listed almost everywhere... Curios to c on the outcome.. Bcause almost all the units price are 200K -350K more than launch price..

You can try looking at the recently VP'ed units such as Emerald and Sapphire... Launching price was around 700K and 6xxK.. Current asking price is 950K-1mil and 940K-980K..

The units was ready around last year May.. So basically 300K increase in 2 years ++ since launch... Not sure if tats called "healthy" appreciation?

Holycow.. I noe tat Emerald launching price was 700K but never thought Sappire was so low, gt to noe through agent tat it was around 660K mark.. No wonder a lot of loans got rejected due to low valuation... Sappire valuation is at 850K and max is 880K but asking already 9xxK...

Actually for the units tat I mentioned, Emerald from 850K went up to 970K in 7 months time period...

Transacted bro.. But there's one unit asking for 935k but junction hse.. Price is less bcoz usually Chinese and Indians dun go for those type of houses..

But nt sure if the S&P has been signed.. The last successful transaction was 950k..

Actually most of the agents told me to skip Emerald as it's a waste of time dy... Because owners has started to ask 950K - 1mil now since the last transaction..

The agents told me tat Qaseh is a better choice if u r going for 1 mil++ price tag.. Was supposed to view 1 of the cheapest unit last weekend, wic was going for 910K and suddenly the owner didn't wanted to sell the unit.. So looks like he wana join the party too..

Sapphire wic is slightly smaller by 1xx sqft is asking for 940K, if not mistaken the last few units available... so wouldn't be too surprised if asking is more than 950K on wards..

Actually I called up most of the agents, its just their stupid trick to price it lower so tat potential customer calls them juz to be informed tat the asking price has been increased...

Indeed, very true.. Wasting our time...

Mind sharing the price tag and the location? Curios to noe y actually they decided to sell at developers price... But actually tat should be the case since developer always puts in "Future price" during launch.. nt add another few hundred K's on top of tat price tag..

It's madness isn't it... Telur kumbar use to be a crappy area but now the asking price could fetch up to 840K... But I still think it's a shitty plc..

Penang also u masuk kah bro?

"Moving forward, the central bank’s measures and the higher Real Property Gains Tax (RPGT) are expected to support a more sustainable growth in home prices, added the BNM."

This might impact a lot flippers who are waiting to sell the unit's once completed...

If leverage 50%, at wat age can a person effort to buy hse? Nt talking bout ppl from rich family or sponsored dp..

By the time u save the other 50%, do u think the hse will be at the same price?

Think again... unless u r cash rich or earning five figures monthly wic will allow u to save super fast... In average how many percentage of ppl even belong to this category.. Ntg wrong wif leveraging debt, but play safe.. nt to stretch too far..

Not again...

I think there's few wic is close to 3 years vacant since VP'ed.. Even in places such as B.Kinara and B.Jalil, there's couple in Denai Alam and Puchong South which I have came across... But it also shows the holding power, nt easy to hold a property for tat long without renting it, but it could also be due to the lower property price but holding few properties at a time could be challenging...

Sungai ara is not really a prime area but the hse prices juz increased like there's no tomorrow... I realize there's a lot of empty hse, especially near batu maung and also balik pulau... It looks like it's a panic buy and currently Png folks juz can't seems to afford it anymore, the salary back in Png is much lower than in what we earn in KL/Selangor so soon or later it's gone drop but it won't be tat much since island land is limited, nt so sure if the price is sustainable anymore.. But the condo's back in Png is becoming even worse, some looks like those condo's back in MK.. Empty... The worst part, rental yield is so dam bad..

I was having similar thoughts... n im nt sure how it's gone impact those huge crony companies..

For those thinking its nt possible, think again.. Some might argue tat, if gov going to do so then current hse buyers gone b in deep trouble so they won't do so...

But if tats the case then how bout car price, wic they promised to bring own 20% every year? It has huge impact to ppl currently owns a car.. so anything is possible..

On top of that if PR is seriously championing bout equality, the 3 rule might be possible if the take Putrajaya after GE13..
