The other 3 stagnant, but the fella is fishing, sometimes will ask slightly lower (3-5%) then back up (through agents though, so I guess it could be agents at work rather than owner giving green light) ... Those 3 I don't track so closely and ready to drop from list ... Have to find a replacement. Anyway, the principal is the same for other properties as well (in my opinion).

not really the type of answers i'm trying to look for.

it's true that someone who have least exposure to banks, developers and property may suffer less compared to others who are more vested in those.
but is there any industries or profession which actually benefits correspondingly with direct property downturn?

eg.... when a prop drops 100k, does someone stands to pocket a % of that 100k through other means?

hi guys,

which area should avoid condo?
over supply?
anyone have the reference??
is kuchai consideR?

Yup this is never a good thing but this will most likely happen

--------------

i am sorry? so what will happen at the end ... ?

I think crash or not depends on you guys le....if can hold then no crash lo...

U still mention USA and japan! You know what happen to their property market or not? Pls check their current status ah boy.

History always repeat itself, if one can wait, believe opportunity like 1997 will return.

More happening  soon in Malaysia?

Here's the problem, due to some unforeseen turnout of events, my business suffered a steep decline in profits and no dividends are expected to be paid for the next 2 years, bringing my total income down to RM 41250 and hence (-ve) RM 22720 outflow every month.

I'm 35 years old and I will be losing my job next month due to company down sizing.

I am fanci of personal finance thread.  Most foumner in that thread think risk of bubble happening of BNM don't do more like how singapore govt doing/ chine govt doing..I share their view too.

Last week, I know one furniture factory @ beranag closed down.

At coffee shop just now. I hear 988 saying something like small recession next year. Anyone hear that?

I read the pesonal finance thread this morning just now....i am like wtf? going on.

so i am asking  "More happening  soon in Malaysia? "

Hmm...this is my first post in this forum and I am using the same nick as the in the other forum.

3 years ago I bought a new under constructed apartment around 920 sq ft at 400k. My frens laugh at me and make jokes and said that I kena conned by the developer. I told them, this is the normal standard price in KL, if I dont buy now then when? So I ignore them but I know secretly they wanted me to fail meaning waiting for the price to crash. I was very upset with these people actually. Yes DDD people are annoying not just in the cyberworld but in the real world too.

Now that apartment is worth more than 600k. If I listen to all these DDD people, I would hav shoot myself in the head!

Anyway. 6 months after that I bought another apartment at the same place with size 719 sq ft. At that point no early bird and the price increase by 20k. Why did I buy two? Because I was contemplating to buy a car but then cars in Malaysia are so exorbitantly doesnt  make sense pricewise to buy one then I thought instead of buying an apartemnt and a car why dont just buy 2 apartments? So I bought 2 apartements and it was the best decision I Have ever made. The 720 sq ft is now worth 500k when I bought at 380k.

A few points to ponder.
1. There are many malaysians who will buy cars when cars are just soo overpriced. Nearly half the price of a house. But hey they keep on buying even though you are actually losing money when you buy a car coz cars depreciates. So what about property?
2. There are more malaysians declared bankrupt becuase of car loans and car loans are one of the most defaulted in Malaysia. But did that decrease the price of cars?
3. Which is more important in a Malaysians everyday life. Cars or a house for you to live in?
4. 10 years ago 1 kg sugar is about RM1. Now is RM2.50. So  with property it is going to stay static forever? Have you guys look at oil price? Dont compare with gold laa. Compare with price of oil. You need that oil to build property.
5. And wages in the Banking industry is increasing. Meaning if you are in the right industry, you will have enuff money to buy anything you want. The question is are you going to buy at the manage to "catch the boat" price or are you the sucker that bought at the "miss the boat" price. Check out fresh grad salary for Petronas. I heard it is a lot.

I dont have a car. I use public transport and I live in KL. But I am maybe one in a million here I guess. And i dont even own a motorbike. Too dangerous to drive a bike in Malaysia. Boycott the automobile industry in Malaysia so that they will listen and finally decrease the car price. But then I guess people rather boycott property buying.

On an individual household basis, BNM’s Credit Counselling and Debt Management Agency (AKPK)’s industry recommends that Debt Repayment Ratio be between 30% and 40%. In 2012, Malaysia’s Debt Payment Ratio was at 43.9%.

maybe they will not pay maintenance fees....not to paint their house... not to pay grass cutter....not to do annual pest control.

indah water already not payment now... so future, can not cut down... GST kick in.... mdecial insurance also cannot cut down bcs included like epf deduction...

Well just saying at that kind of price, there will be no such owners who will skip mantenance fee...and why are you afraid of commercial title?

Well cant imagine such wealthy people who buy high end condo will not pay maintenance fees.
