This is what we call life, life is never guarantee or certain. Heck you could be even die of heart attack tonight.

So glad I bought my 1st property at age 21, sold then another at 29 year old, sold and just bought my 3rd last year. Total profit from the 1st 2 properties is RM600k.

Oh wow!
Mind giving detail on how much you’re earning and how much the property cost when you purchase it?

I’m 24 hardly 4K earner (not the standard 20k ktard), I’m stuck like ts currently with all the what ifs
*
200k condo when I was earning 3k, 420k terrace house when I was earning 8.5k and new semid 1.75m with salary confidential (way above 5 figures definitely to afford it) 🤐

Life is all about taking chances, work smart to achieve what you want in life.

Nowadays if you WFH, it’s important to have enough space in your house esp if you’ve a family. I’ll go crazy if not.

just wondering how you handle the period during your sell - buy transition?
you buy a new house, move in first while waiting your old house to be sold?
Or the other way around?

Buy new then sell old. Use some of the profit for reno and keep the rest.

In property, you'll see the money when you're able to afford your 2nd property and assuming you buy low and sell high

seems like all your properties are in hot-demand area, since can find buyer in a short time.  laugh.gif

1st one was in Tropicana, sold within 1 month

2nd is in Setia Alam, sold within 6 weeks

As they said, it’s all about location, location and location. I’ve colleagues who bought in area such as Balakong, Port Dickson crying at lost now.

It also depends on timing, Tropicana was sold back in 2010 and Setia Alam end of 2019.

Lastly, I only buy from reputable and well known developers. Worst if the property is abandoned or quality is like shit
