Buyers are more worried about 6% GST next year. Most will still go ahead to book a house now, despite the rise in interest rate.

Thanks for your reminder. I was too busy to post here frequently in recent months. I just know that property prices mostly did not crash and landed property prices are still increasing at JB. I'm not from KL so I need your verification for KL.

From Q3 2014 to Q1 2015 people will still largely go ahead to book new properties, and developers, particularly for landed properties, will slap a premium on the price, because they themselves will face large inflationary pressure later.

I expect the transaction volume to cool off significantly from Q2 2015 and the effect may last for about a year before buyers get used to the prices/quality. Both JB and KL are now having luxury condominium (>$1 mil) bubble. KL is apparent now while JB will be apparent in 2016. In another word, 2H 2015 onward market is likely to be quite weak in areas far from MRT/ LRT/ business centers. Prices there may correct by 10-20% back to 2013 level.

Depends on his asking price. Right now too many condos launches and the market cannot digest.

The inflation experienced now is a taxation on man in the street by Malaysia government to pay back past debts, which were used to pay...
