Sigh... no one is asking you to buy a BMW... at the rate you're going with taxi fares, I'm sure you could well afford a local car (Myvi perhaps)... Of course there's petrol and parking, but hey there's a price for everything including convenience and safety... nowadays a lot of snatch thieves on motor bikes... not to say that parking lots are safe but safer than walking on the streets flagging down taxis... end of the day, its your decision... I guess people just sharing their views on your position that's all and no one is forcing you to follow it.

There's no wrong in people preferring to buy cars rather than a house either, its just what they priortise and gain satisfaction from. Most likely they rather have their own transport to get to work, the convenience of it and just stay with parents where lodging, utilities and food is provided for FOC... So no right or wrong... just individual choices.

I think I know you... but I better stop talking because I don't want you to know me... but then again... I may be mistaken!!!

Wealth is important but doesnt necessary reflects the quality of life. I knew a colleague who owned 5 properties but taking bus to work everyday. When we go for better food during lunch he always wont join (unless someone treating) because he wanted to save money. Last I heard, he suddenly passed away. He died a rich man, but lived his life like a poor man. What s the point?

Its anybody's guess whether the property prices will continue going up or start going down... Personally I think it'll go down (I'm sure some jokers going to ask, so when by how much... which is the obvious question everyone knows how to ask)... Seriously, all my buddies are all settled down and we enjoyed our lives partied, movies, sports, road trips, name it we did it... and in our group we used to have friends like you, they'd always say "hey you come fetch me", or "hey, I'm short I'll pay you back later" and personally they know deep inside that sharing the petrol and toll or whatever it is, does not include sharing the maintenance of the car... and yet they still ask time after time... hey can you pick me up... after awhile, we just didn't see that guy anymore cos everyone just got tired... I dunno... I guess you know what I mean. Anyway, whatever makes you happy man.

No sir I am not referring to you personally. Sorry if there is any offence. 
My point is everyone has their own views towards happiness. Taking taxi is fine for someone, but a waste of time for others. Some enjoy dumping money into properties and see their wealth grow. Some enjoy driving around in a BMW instead of buying more properties. From financial perspective the former is smarter than the latter. But from enjoyment of life perspective, the latter could be wiser.
The problem is many forummers have a narrow point of view; either you are wrong or I am right kind of mentality. And making too much assumptions about the other parties.
I am from a DDD camp but doeant mean I think prices of ALL properties will come down, or there is no good buy in the market now. Nor affordability is an issue to me.

I really can't brain your attitude at all.

First you said you prefer to buy property.
Secondly, you claimed those buying cars are stupid.

Ok, I don't wish to comment on these views.

But then you go and buy Amaya Saujana?!?!?! 

No bus there.
No LRT there.
No amenities within walking distance.
The only thing close by is country club (no use if you are not a member) and Japanese school (definitely not for your kids).

No car how to visit your own property?
If your tenant no car how to stay there?
If your prospective buyer no car would he buy from you?

Your own statement vs your action is so contradicting I felt you must be a sales agent or property agent.

If you truly believe future of KL-ites is no car you will be buying somewhere on LRT line. And don't say its overpriced - your Amaya surely ain't cheap either. How about sell off your Amaya go for Tropicana Grande? 

I think most people are like this: Just because the durian is a non-low hanging fruit, people say that the durian must be infested with maggots. Yes, I agree some props are really expensive and bullshit in price without any sustainability aspect to contribute to the price. BUT there are still good properties within reach in KV and undervalued.

Some people didnt study and just say everything bullshit and must go down. It is like saying Puchong and Kajang are banjir area. for sure all places in Puchong and Kajang banjir and no good. One should not generalize everything.

I also dont like young people keep saying, " house nowadays too expensive. too expensive for anyone to buy". But at the same time, same people go clubbing, spa, buy scirocco as daily driven car etc. really bullshit. huhu

hmmm...true but at the same time those who are not in loan will avoid buying property as well which happening in Singapore and HK? Just based on myself as customer point of view.

Speaking of maintenance fee.....I hate those who don't pay the maintenance fee...look at my apartment lift. Spoiled for months and still not repair. Happy climb for them, lucky mine wasn't that high floor hahaha...

Amaya Maluri = commercial title? Hmmm...I dunno. I just afraid of commercial title property.

er....I own a moto...not a...car not worth le...I can get second hand cheaper later hehehe... Look at the petrol cost you for car each month...not worth lo...

of coz not worth lo...if I can afford only I get it. Car just a luxury stuff and people like me don't need it.

eh...don't scare me la...my wife daily curse me to get a toyota car...no money lo...

There are a lot of cheapskate wealthy people. They are living well but for some funny reason they are NOT willing to contribute anything.

first...fengshui not good....second....a lot of "good buddy"...third....noisy...

They will tell you "I do not use swimming pool & gym. The guards are shitty too. Why should I pay?". Real story, mate.

feng shui where got good...according to chinese ancient fengshui...one of the most problem stuff is having shoplots below where you stays...because the shoplots will takeup all the earth energy that can benefit those who stays there...shops need earth energy to create good fortune too like boosting sales and attract customers...another example is house that near to cemetery also bad...because of the thousand of graveyard generate different kind of will so that it can direct where their family future is..but imaging you pickup the signal energy from different family? That will be disaster...you will get sick easily too.

Second, "good buddy" is foreign worker lo....look at the shops nowadays so many foreign worker...

Third, noisy lo...the shop close at 11pm so you will get the noise from 5.30pm to 11pm...walau...

Anything is possible in bolehland, car bubble did happen. When wira was first introduced, potong increased price every quarterly and waiting time was over 3 months. During that period, a used wira was worth MORE than its newly purchased price and anyone who booked or bought a car can make instant profit. Like all parties, it came to end prematurely 

Hmmmm, sound familiar to current what market? 

look whos talking. Pretty disappointed with how the way you put things. Just because you had a different POV and you would categorize them so lowly?? That's your conclusion? Just because you did not make it, it doesn't mean others had not reach there yet. You do not need to drag everyone down to your level to make yourself happier. 

like it or  not.. I'm having difficulty finding a apartment for less than rm400k now. So much about lelong unit and so on.. If you really did try it you will know how hard it is for you to get em.. tried to nego a couple and the owners insisted with the firm price. I'm not too sure whether it's the agent or owner but like it or not they are not desperate selling it and that's for sure. If you look at the trend now.. Anything below RM400k is CHEAP. It used to be RM300k previousll.. but for RM300k i can't even find myself something decent now.. While the figures in my banking account is growing but it isn't as quick as the property prices in klang valley... We are running out of land after all. look at where they are building the homes now.

Continue waiting and let's see where you get by 2014? All we need is time to prove you wrong.. backdated from 2007 until now.. how long more should the waiting game continue? Ask yourself.

well, if you like to accept yourself as that as what that kid say, then be my guest. anyway, nobody knows who you are afterall, this is cyberspace.

what have been proven wrong ? it would be a bit stupid to think that property market is a stagnant market that only can go up and cant come down...but when it comes down, only the stupid & greedy ones who would be in trpuble, possibly comitting suicides, hope not involving the families too. it sounds senstive, but it happens in reality. this is afterall cyberspace. dont have to use your own stories to "show" to people, any stories can come up in cyberspace anyway.....not that im saying you are lying.

and more importantly, it's not what the DDD or UUU people say that you make decision, it's your own brain that does the thinking.  if you depend on what other people say, you can REALLY fit in low class category, honestly. but again, that kid is the one who interpreted and said that I said that you are a low class people, the words doesnt comes from my sentences. so, if you believe his interpretation, you will naturally act like one...
