Everything is based on generalisation la, property downward trend means that properties in most areas prices are falling just the same like stocks market la, it's a bear cycle when most stock prices go down. There will NEVER be a scenario where ALL properties or stocks go down, even in the worse kinda market some stocks will still perform well or maintain their prices, just like properties.

If follow your definition, then there is no such thing as a downward trend for anything la.

Even now, some prime locations like BB, DAMANSARA already got property prices dropping la, maybe not as significant as other sub prime areas but even prime properties are dropping, so still wanna say no downward trend? The only difference is that PRIME areas drop slower and lesser, but it's still a drop even if drop only by 5%, it's still a drop. Let's not deny that.

Double in 10 years is about 7% p.a compounded.

Why not compare with price in 1997?

Super bubble burst will not happen.

I predict max also market price drop by 40%...maybe 50% la.... But more likely most properties will just see 30% reduction in price.
Ready 500k++, I think end 2018 or next yr can get some smaller and older 3r2b condos for around there. Those below 1500sq feet la.

Lets say really economy pick up in the next 1-2 yrs, even those that got employed/still working dare to take the plunge?

Dream on 

My 2cents.

its an on going topic, properties are usually bought using a long-term commitment, so this topic will always need revisioning...
Sime Darby just had their MSS recently. a few other big companies too that I have heard of.

Regardless my wife just moved a job and got a big increment, so i guess we are just hearing random noises?

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

Not to mention the opportunity cost of waiting...

Not sure bubble or not

Wait till our local $$$ start to flow to US when the actual transfer happen. Sure our local $$$ will be reduce either by dropping in value or tighter credit from bank. Between investing in klang vs US. Which one will offer better return?
