Care to elaborate further ? seen this phenomena in a few area.

Share price would "Never" go down even during[ economic meltdown, I like that ...lol

Those senior & record that show KLSE is at 300++ point during late 90's must be fake, it was actually 1300 point...lol

Eh.. isn't back then 1 SGD were like 1.3 something while today ehh.. 2.5 something, so share price err up or down ah? I also donno.

1300 x 2 = 1800 I supposed.

I have seen quite a few thread discussing about property price going down been closed by admin, most of the time due to a few members posting turn nasty, instead of taking action against these members admin take simple/sided approach by closing it, at time tge thread last less than a day, before other members who have their view point or prove that indeed some new complete property is offering discount, eg. I just saw banners near jalan gombak offering 10% discount + free legal fees for Setapak Green condo.
Some member such as Donald Trump had numerous posting using vulgar & inappropriate language, if admin do not understand chinese I am glad to translate on behalf, in fact I had made an report on him once, but I do not see changes nor warning given by admin.
I do believe admin job is to maintain forum rules & order similar to polis in our society at large, rather than give their stand toward opinion of different camp of forum members, just like law enforcer stand on political believe of various party, when conflict arises.
I do hope lyf property talk can maintain as a civilised & non biased property forum.
I chose open approach this round so that other members can give their view point towards this matter, I too do not think there is necessity to start a new thread, therefore choose post in existing one.
For the better of the forum.

10K assessment doesn't mean owners pay RM10K/ year, just percentage of it eg 6% mean RM 600 per year divided into 2 payment of RM 300 every 6 months.

As for the word bubble just mean rapid price increase, faster than income, only when it reaches unsustainable it's burst@decline than is a problem as real estate bubble r more critical as it may last for years compare to stock market, but can be a shopping gala those who r still loaded after economic "Haiyan". .lol

Hong Kong has one of the world’s lowest birth rates—1.11 per woman of child-bearing age asof 2012, far below the replacement rate of 2.1.
With just 1,032 babies born in 2009 to every 1000 fertile women, it is estimated that 26.8% of the population will be aged 65 or more in 2033, up from 12.1% in 2005.

Speculation, money laundering, black money, underworld king ping turn developer.

Another fake demand like previous oil crisis which proven to be a scam.

hahaha speechless, I am quite sure Sun Yat Sen is refer as father of Taiwan though he study in Hong Kong, too much HV sitcom is bad for u...lol

Talking about Mainland China investors/speculators/flipper not people of China origin, if so all Malaysians chinese r too China people.

Only during the 80's - 90's lot of Bao Fa Hu from mainland china start to "invest' heavily in HK properties, thus create Bubble, China r quite poor after ww2, only by 70s & 80s huge investment pour in thus create lots of instant Bao Fa Hu & Da Kuan, not forgetting rich relative of gov officer.

What did teach children in school nowadays. ..sigh

Taiwan actually had such data, during the peak of their properties bubbles, there r 1.55 millions home with zero electricity consumption over a period of time, recently the figures is at 1.48 millions.
Clear sign of bubble.

Too bad as usual we will not have these data, In fact we don't even allowed to publish car sales data base on brand & model (even Africa country published the car sales data but we don't. .lol )

U can add it in selling price, but remember u can ask for what ever price u like doesn't mean buyers would pay blindly, u may not be the only seller, what if other seller desperate to cash in fast & willing to absorb the extras ?

With so many properties completing soon in next 2 years, it's going to be a buyer market. ..cheer

DDD ? No lah I see iproperty.com all UUU but the same properties advertised over & over again doesn't look like can sell lah..lol

Actually current senario is HHH

Seller want a higher price, buyer want a lower price, so both side "Hold".. waiting for either side give in.

I m quite happy many still believe price will be continue to Up 3 & people continue to Buy 3 while developer continue to Build 3, bank continue loan3, more people Borrow 3, as low BLR will Stay 3 hopefully the household debt go beyond 100% by 2014-2015

Opportunity to grabs cheap properties coming soon..lol

Cybermaster98 why waste time educating them ? just prepare cash & wait for the perfect storm...lol

U should reserved your wise fruit of thought from these wannabe flipper, some of us r sharpening our parang waiting for "Shun Foh" @ Cheap & Good Stock to slash ..lol

He is taking about monetary policy.

Monetary policy is the process by which the monetary authority of a country controls the supply of money, often targeting a rate of interest for the purpose of promoting economic growth and stability.[1][2] The official goals usually include relatively stable prices and low unemployment. Monetary economics provides insight into how to craft optimal monetary policy.

Monetary policy is referred to as either being expansionary or contractionary, where an expansionary policy increases the total supply of money in the economy more rapidly than usual, and contractionary policy expands the money supply more slowly than usual or even shrinks it. Expansionary policy is traditionally used to try to combat unemployment in a recession by lowering interest rates in the hope that easy credit will entice businesses into expanding. Contractionary policy is intended to slow inflation in order to avoid the resulting distortions and deterioration of asset values.

What's wrong ? U have different theory ?

Judging by 20/30% up in profit for every quarter by developers, ya ya cost base inflation. ..zzz

Again my oil prices theory, back in 2008 oil price was once at USD 148, all the oil companies was saying expect it to reaches USD 200 in few months as oil supply is seriously deteriorating, no more new oil sources, cost to explore oil has gone up its is impossible to lower their cost, within months if not weeks oil tumble below USD 50, Dubai become dead city all construction stop, my Malaysian co. get burn, 5 years has gone oil price currently hovering below USD 100, so how it that possible ? cost deflation ? or found oil in Mars ?

Economy 101 ..huh perhaps this worth a case studies. .lol

So long as u don't sell u don't loss.

Having said that if u bought it at 350K & sell at 350K is a lost, eg. legal fees, spa & etc, renovation, maintenance fees should be add in for break even.

Though RM 300K is highly unlikely but who know someone may be too desperate to cash in, world cup 2014 coming .. endless possibility. .lol

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.

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.
