Areas like Kajang, Bangi and even overbuilt Jalan Ampang got developer selling property at RM2XXk-RM3XXk range these days. But mostly relatively unknown developers or developers with "mixed" record or got high tensions cables or the project in the worst part of a decent location, so buyers will shoulder a fair amount of risk.

Threads like this make me think your wet dream of a property mart crash might soon become reality

But on the other hand, I've seen ppl with a million ringgit in their bank accounts, the money just lying there not utilized ... and the big malls like Sunway Pyramid and KLCC are full on weekends, so ....

My brave prediction is an economic crisis will hit sometime between 2017-2020. I wrote a short essay on why I think so, but deleted it because I want it to catch most ppl unaware. I want to watch the world burn

But in the meantime, I hope you are contend with your rented apartment. I'm curious which apartment u are renting, but I guess u are not telling

LOL, why are u guys still arguing about properties like it's a life or death issue.

The rich invest in commercials lah, not high rise residential for rental. If poorfags want a slice of the commercial cake, can always invest in Reits.

My take is a financial crisis will hit in the next few years, and after that particularly bad 1-2 years where some ppl will go to 14th floor, overall property prices will start to recover slowly, but high rises will be largely stagnant. But there won't be a repeat of 2009-15 bull run for many years.

Hahaha, where have you been? Shares performed very well this year. I plan to buy more if there's a correction.

You Property Negotiator also play shares meh? Got burned by shares is it?

IMHO, we are in a secular bull market, but there may be some weakness in the near term. Basically, it means I am bullish on stocks for the next few years.

But keep in mind a person can still lose money in a bull market if he bought the wrong stocks.

A one off case can show whether it's a bubble?

Not to mention the opportunity cost of waiting...

I don't recall posting such things .... I think u mistake me for someone else

But I repeat: it could be a one off case. So how could a single case show "how would ppl (if even one minus the ultra rich) have the ability to hold on to property without tnants then????:

Speaking of HK prop market, I just read this yesterday:

I'm NOT saying the same applies for Malaysian prop mart or that 2017 is a crisis year ...
