You can't say it's unfair because you were buying early in hopes that the price appreciates right? But it didn't. Anyway I understand how you feel. I hope more people see this so that people stop thinking that
1. The margin is low for property development project
2. Property price can only go up

This few years has been very tough for my financial.

A single bad investment in Tropicana Gardens unit (bought at property peak time), plus covid-19 pandemic, retrenchment, all came in once, really set me backward very badly.

A bad decision wiped out all the previous hard work. Hope Tropicana Gardens unit price will gain to RM1300 psf in future.

Nothing much that I can do beside hold on and wait it out.

Tropicana gardens very bad? I just looked at the price now it is about 900 psf. You bought at 1300psf?

Let me guess, is the property a leasehold?

My mistake. Then why need consent? Is this the freehold with state consent type?

Got it. I think this is one of the issues with buying leasehold or freehold requiring state consent - in the future when you want to sell, the state can reject.

I have been saying this many times and now freehold is way more expensive, I guess it backfired.

Edit: Should have just kept quiet and let people buy leasehold.

That's why they say property is a product by banks. They need you to buy properties so that you can take loans for 35 years.

And you know when is the best time to sell you that dream? In your 20s when you know shit about money.
