@dreamer101,
Yes, the earlier post is merely MY opinion.  My definition of an asset is something we own hence the house we live in (assuming it's been paid up) is what i'll consider an asset.  An investment on the other hand is something that has the possibility of earning one some money each month.

I don't think we can or should judge an asset by just cash flow.  Perhaps u had meant 'Investment' instead, and not Asset? *shrugs*

Easier explanation...is car an asset even after you've paid off all the car loan? wink.gif

Anyway, back to the topic. I.e. IMO not much choice if one is scouting for landed properties around that budget. Unless of course look out of town. But I don't think there's anywhere in KL.

If you are not looking for a big family, a condo would be a better place. It has security, facilities etc. House has much higher expense compared to a condo. Wait til you got a bigger capital then only buy a house la

Not exactly correct. Monthly management fees paid for condo and monthly rental of parking if only 1 parking lot are considered "fixed" expenses already. Sometimes changing of guards would cost moneys too.
