Are you single or married? In my opinion, your savings rate is quite low.
Maybe you can at least reduce your food expenses to increase your savings rate.
Do you currently have any savings? Like emergency savings? If something happens to your house rental income (e.g. your tenant suddenly stops paying or run away), you need some savings to temporarily cover for the lack of rental income.

I'm single, yea it's very low.. parents side they retired without proper financial planning that's why I am paying more. Why my food expenses is high is because I factor in weekend eat outs that I got to pay as well.

I only kept about 7K in FD, 8K in stocks. So far tenant is quite okay... and I track all the water and electricity bills monthly..

Next thing I'm looking out is for a new job offer to give me 15-20% of my current pay.. that will ease my burden..

Your total housing loan installment is RM2500 or RM100 (RM1300 -RM1200)?

If your housing loan is only RM 100, then your saving will be RM 1400 and i think tats ok.

Housing loan is RM2500 monthly - rental EM1300 haha
