Property was a healthy investment because was never a bubble like 2009-2015.

I find forumers here funny, ppl are struggling ( many) with cost of living next year... these champions still property price up?

what is wrong?

4-5K income sure struggling lah... 

Ah Bear I can feel your pain

Simple ! rich getting richer, poor getting poorer.

We advice him buy within or below his mean, later can upgrade, he think we dog eye him.

Kradun says he stays in studio unit, he instantly dog eye him (though he didn't even have any property), when kradun start showing him other properties he instantly quiet.

Conveniently forgot farmers need to use tractor, generator, water pump, trucks, etc. This show how much our politicians are out of touch from reality.

No good lah ! All go there makan free then curse developer, some ask salesman/saleslady give 200K discount or else they walk off.

They also show their smart phone showing the article I mentioned above to those agent ask them The Star says their properties cannot sale, worse than FD, why Star property fair says property will brings good return.

Salesman all quiet face red.

Property is illiquid, asking price and transacted price could be a huge difference, and price takes a few years to bottom.

Construction cost I.e materials, labour, subcon profit, etc of typical condo is about rm150 PSF, impact of gst is marginal besides most of these building materials are already paying higher sales tax. If price will goes up because of gst, current asking price will already included the expected increments and up.

Most Asian had some degree of lactose intolerance, so too much dairy probably cause them upset stomach.

Buying new launch or secondary depends on one requirements, some need house fast some can wait, some prefer fully build house compare to take risk on abandoned project, some prefer matured location with full amenities, many reason some would ops for secondary.

In the matter of fact more transaction done are secondary compared to new launch if you read those quater or full year report.

Bearbea combine saving got 200k la....but that haven deduct for house deposit, stamp duty,renovation , dowry, wedding expenses, ang pow for chi mui and back up for coming soon baby Bearbear ..

Prima is best bet in my opinion

dowry are fo indian ppl..

dun try bluff, if really 200k not enough for all these, how many couples are married and has it? if there are , wont be vacant units... lor

There will always be many ppl better than us.... however, for generic discussion purposes, i think its safe to generalize and use statistics to make sense of the masses as a whole, vs specific sampling. else there will no end... as the general population is made up of both extremes.

From bear bear point of view, he cannot comprehend that. He will always think if he cannot afford, others cant make it too.

be serious, you say to meant that most married couple have and spend more than 200k ? wait you say 200k also not enough, one dude even say 30% park in deposits... so specific, dunno what he want wants?

seen many dont even buy house or cant afford, only stay apartment with father mother marry ceremony all go there..

just because wanna win troll untill this level..

if Malaysia are really comprise of these in majority even 20%,  no need BRIMS, no need PPR flats and etc..right or not?

the measures by gov to takle the above income? tak de rasa pun.. 30% DP mai 30% DP lor..

the mass supplies and problem are not for the 20%, even they are holding it, they need to market it out and not holding  it till end of loans..

Why keep assuming.. 27? Seen before.. total loans 1.6 million solo.. commision based.. basic 3k..

there are alwayls these ppl around.. but sadly majority are not.. you have always mention sapu here there..no friends cannot sapu meh? Impossible right?

What's wrong with having a budget wedding and honeymoon? Marriage is about the couples life together, not a performance for others.

I know many3 couple have more than 200K.

Research are done by those who earn less than 2K working as journalist who can only dream of a decent property, sorry Ah Bear if you want to success don't listen to loser, unless u want to he like them.

If you have put your money in nyse and nasdaq especially in tracker funds in the last few years, you should be doing pretty well. One can only benefit from crash is to keep cash before the market crash. Better to have $5 in the pocket than $100 on the floor.
Need to study and monitor herd behaviour to know when to offload certain investment.
Few punters survived end of bull run.

Come I give u 20% discount, but I will mark up 25%, that's how most of the fashion boutique doing, mark up 50% then give 50% discount for year end sale
