Hi, I was looking for a property, i stumbled upon many property websites. Some advertisements were not too convincing (many agents will write: this pictures is for illustration purposes only). Juat curious as to which property website is reliable for you to find a property.

For land :- Mudah.

Listing :- iProperty or PropertyGuru.

Don't really look for properties on other places but do read their reviews every now and then.

I use TheEdgeProperty and PropertyGuru


I don’t trust iProperty because too many fake ads and even ‘agents’ without REN / REA numbers.

Wow I didn’t know about that - what’s a fake owner/buyer/landlord/tenant and how do they operate on property websites ?

Care to elaborate please ?
Examples would be best.

Fake vendor ... selling a property when they have no legal authority to sell. Collect deposit ... cabut.

Fake buyer .... viewing properties when no intention to buy ... can be robbers or rapist.

Fake landlord ... equal to fake vendor.

Fake tenant ... equal to fake buyer.

I use property agent from my past dealing. For eg. I need to buy a property which im interested in, i will send the link to my agent (although my agent may not the expert there), he will link me up with his colleague, or he will find out for me whether the ads are real or just to fish buyers.

Some advs when u call over, agent will say "just sold" amd then start intro u other properties or projects on his hand.

The number of fake ads in mudah, iprop and propguru are bloody staggering

Thanks for the recommendations! Yes, just encounter that "trick" of calling agent of the property & mentioned sold out and proposed another unit. He was very forceful of me to view the unit that i'm keen on. But, i cut off with that agent & called another agent who has the same name as me lol, coincidence much? After explaining the procedures & loan eligibilities. Will view the unit soon.
