raw materials, can control wan to certain degree.....even if its imported....

most manufacturers buy forward mah....

personal opinion is property prices hardly fall (not the last 10-15 years back) . either it will stagnant for a while and eventually it will rise.

Japan property price stagnant for 20 years

It is worring....property agents firm turnover drop > 50% compare 2013......some property agent friends sold car at huge $ vanished......and hear say the mrt line 2 might delay .....expected govt no money and hard time to raise money locally / overseas.

No la, i mean he brought @ Rm520k around 3 years back,not the current price. Current price should be around Rm780k-Rm850k depend on facing.

got, depends on location and demands. The point here is, seller have misconception that landed can offer at rm700k or a million but it doest not reflect the actual demand from the rental yield point of view.

In KV, 5 out of 10 landed owners will hate staying in landed due to security issue, car parking issue, bad neighbors, and etc.

Agreed, summore recently so many bad neighbors news in paper. Get killed because of stupid rubbish.

Nowadays buy subsales property also need to do some background check on neighbors already.

true true,,,

but stay in condo need to pay hefty monthly maintenance fee whoa...and no gardening strip for plants....also cannot lah.....

majority of locals dun like to stay in condo wan...from my circle of local friends.

i read from an article recently pertaining the landed condition in KV.

Mostly compliant on

unattended illegal dumping,
ponding at common area
cloged road drains
aedes cases
stray animals
pest invasion

other than those common robbery, break in, bad neigbours, car parking

yeah, agree,

landed owner jealous on condo owner can have good security, big pools, gym and private lifetsyle

but then

condo owner jealous on landed owner can have private event at house, BBQ party, private gardening and getting home faster.

All got its pro and con, see which suits ur lifestyle.

One of my friend, sold his landed and go for condo in same neighborhood. He wanted max security for his spouse.

yeah, i always screen the neigbours before decide a purchase on subsale, my wife will hemp me "interview" them

Buy Landed for mid to long term capital appreciation

Buy Highrise for rental yields with view for long term capital appreciation

Buying high rise in KL South for Rental yield = tread carefully and make sure got holding power

Same goes for Buying Landed in KL South to FL1P = must have holding power

was thinking to grab another unit before this year end.. now might need to think again

can share the project in ur short listed?? bcos I planning to do that so

Given the situation above, nobody mentioned GST is coming and its impact....
