According to a lawyer friend; currently, one group of foreigners are rushing to sell before new rpgt and another group of foreigners who are working here are rushing to buy before 1m minimum limit kick in. Guess, UUU camp can have the market to themselves in the new year.

I see foreigner cabuting

The foreigner rushing to sell r the flipper, the foreigner rushing to buy is Singaporean who wanna buy a house & stay at JB/Iskandar.

By 2014 hehe .. House grab time. 

Yes I think 2014 & 2015 will be a good time for bargain hunters in the secondary market.

Those which has not bought will have hard time getting loans and no dibs. Those which has bought is enjoying the facilities now. I fail to understand why those who has not bought is the winner. From before until now,  banks approve loan base on a person ability to pay base on income track record. It is not given out as wanton as some thinks. Bank more afraid loaners cannot pay, so i also fail to understand why those believe that with the implementation, suddenly a lot of people cannot pay n price collapse. Bank negara in setting the rates also have the data of loaners paying capability n will be fully aware of the npl risk if they increase the rate. New property price will be stagnant which will be the ceiling for subsales. Inf fact it may help flippers as there is no.different in buying subsale or new launches.

There is possibility but I think not a lot. Don't under estimate holding power of house owner in Malaysia.

I would rather believe most have very low holding power base on the long list of auction unit I see recently..lol

If u hold on to something doesn't bring profit in near future, it actually hinders ur money from invest in other more profitable investment,  mind u business need liquid assets too row, the entire country not depends on properties industry along to survive.

In fact P.I.G.G.S & USA entire economy got turn upside down because too much concentration on properties flipping & ignore other industries.

People had become obsessively indulged into properties gambling, if by now never wake up from it, expect same route with Spain.

As long as people have jobs, and the economy is in the positive growth region, don't expect prices to fall.

Maxis recently announced 500 job cut from their 3300 workforce,  Thailand report economy growth slow down to 2.7%, China having slowest economy growth of 7.5%, Indonesia economy expect slow down in 2014 BI up to 7.5%, Hong Kong economy slow down to 2.9%, South Korea economy slowest at 1.6% in 3 years, Japan economy Q3 economy merely growth 0.5%.

U should read beyond local feel good media..lol

But there is a mismatch in terms of median wages and the prices of property at the moment.

I hear the same point for so long, but the price still so high 

The problem with you guys is that you only assume that can only be two scenarios that can happen. One bubble burst, two bubble doesn't burst but the truth is what could happen and more likely to happen is stagnation or near zero growth until inflation catches up with the price. Even during the US recession a few years ago that was what happen.

I've said before, as long as interest rates are low, and economic growth is postive people will have very high holding power.
