You limit how many properties a person can have, will automatically fix the problem.

Baby boomers owning too much properties.

as always... salah house buyers, not developers, not cement/steel/sand makers.

You go check how much steel/ sand price first. Those are unchecked inflation.

You cant even build a landed double storey house now with 200K even you are given land for free.

You impose heavy tax, they will directly channel those cost to renters.

It will create even more problems with higher rent on horizon, and those house owners will gladly tell them it is government fault for such burden.
Yeah, the usual talking points since 1997, rofl. XD

the point I am trying to make is those parties ie. developer,cement,sand,steel maker are responsible for high housing price.

you can go try to build your house at cost price, you will find yourself these guys are the ones earning biggest bucks in the entire food chain.

This one is expert.

Buying place to stay at young age is a total waste. The property becomes a liability instead of asset.

Better buy a shoplot which can generate recurrent income. Rent anywhere that is convenient and closer to work, then change house when work change. Be flexible and be like water.

If possible, do not buy an expensive condo, ie more than 500k ones just for investment or rental purposes.

1 unit of shop these days is 2million easily. And it is not like developer will build them anymore. They just spam building condo kao kao because it earn a lot more.

Good luck buying shoplot

Land cost increase much more than the building materials or labor. Look at the psf price of land compared to before and compare the increase. Ofc I’m ltalking about high house prices areas like kv and Penang.

We cannot manufacture land. This is why it will get even more expensive than building material.

So I have not see a system that punish wasteful use of land implemented yet.

our cukai tanah 10 units of bungalow still much cheaper than entire block of condo that use the same amount of land area.


IMO, cukai tanah should have been only base on land area.

not so correct calculation in terms of impact....

is u pay tax and pay house for 35 years.. for 1m... after you ko.. the house is worth 2m...

your son, to inherit that house... needs to pay 5% inheritance tax... in cash.... 5% of 2m.. fuh..
*

correct people who suggest this probably never own a house b4, they are just some poor kid jealous people got house from FAMA.

imaging this

you got 3 kids, you buy 3 landed houses at cheap cheap 200K per unit 35yrs ago. Finally you die early now 6 feet under, you somehow manage to work your ass hard enough to fully paid all 3 houses. At least you thought your kids dont have to worry about house, thats was the plan.... but...if got new inheritance tax.

Your kids fresh grat baru keluar kerja, house is 2m. 5% means need to come up RM100k cash to inherit the house they are currently staying. fuuh

all 3 of them have to sell the house they are staying, then downgrade to smaller house. rclxub.gif

ayam not con-traktor.

my current contraktor just quoted me RM150 to rebuilt a ~3100sqft Corner Double storey house. (he quote low becos I long time client)

I asked so many other Ah kao, Ah Seng contraktor, they all quote way higher than RM150 for the same quality.
