QUOTE(poco loco @ Mar 17 2025, 10:31 AM) i got a plan if i still renting if owner scared to rent to old ppl.....offer 1-2 years payment upfront jer,i bet they will take it reverse the situation… would you accept 2 years advance from an old tenant?… in fact, i would be very suspicious… just buy within your means… every property will have its value… 20-40 years from now, another poco will be looking for a similar property! |

QUOTE(poco loco @ Mar 16 2025, 04:48 AM) hello, i really need advise to buy or countinue rent a unit... Rent or buy no big deal actually just like many said no right or wrong as most of the pro and cons can be easily countered i am 41years old,got no more family,wife,kids and wanna maintain that way till i die, the unit i wanted to buy is rm 90k shop apartment studio upstairs (highest floor) 3rd floor NO LIFT just 400 sq.ft (approximately) and the unit i renting currently is a room rm320 rent + tnb n water rm170 total up about rm 490 a month..landed property sometimes i wonder y buy a property when i die it will not be pass to anyone, (just a piece of my mind) but in the mean time,i really like to live in peace aka senyap enviroment,the room i renting got other tenant with kids n near diswahing area,which can jolt me up from sleep when in use,eventhough its for few minute.. pls just advice me (buy or not to buy) i am kindda unsure, thank you in advance What you really need in your life is ..... A partner who have the same mindset as yours (bf/gf you decide) As you grow older and become senior many things become a disadvantage to you so no matter what you need a stay together partner to balance out things Companionship is a need not a want (sex included) and its not hard to find someone with the same mindset/thinking like you So yea... Just chill and open your eyes bigger try mix around with ppl you are comfortable with who knows the person is there all the while |

Sure got one, have to be open minded and mingle around, join more social activities, don't close the door yet. My brother in law didn't get married until he was in his early 40s.

Maybe for those near MRT station, but majority no. |
