13th Malaysia Plan - 1 million units affordable home over next ten years, if executed according to plan, that is average 100k units per year. Realistic? 100k units are more than the current overhang units...

When is feel good projects, the govt tries to inflate figures. When didn't materialize, all others are wrong 🤭.

Locations are important for affordable homes too, otherwise many would just rent at places convenient to the family.

And they also dont want super prime location because no affordable food, market, transport, park dll. Everything also expensive the moment they step out of the home.

But some will say, cheap ma, cannot choose. If cannot choose, they rather be squatters near to city 🤔

Nowadays affordable houses no longer being built at remote areas, it's really hard to make money from properties. Prices will be stagnant untill government stop building affordable home which are similar to open market price units, instead government should build affordable apartments with lesser facilities and lower maintenance fee.

Good for new house buyers

affordable home nowadays have quite good facilities... not like the old days Rumah Murah Concepts

the bull is running or not??why johor bull is running so hard??

Bandar Malaysia i.e ex sg besi airport is available for affordable home.

My sincere 2cents:

Those property influencers / gurus sure will say property price will be steady and grow etc, and they will show their portfolio to convince others.

But the fact is, many people that tries to be like the influencers, fail to do so because they are not as specialized as these influencers do. They don't have the time or energy to spend like those influencers to get where they are today. "But follow buy sure no harm ma", yeah sure, provided that you can hold that long.

Some influencers are already holding high positions and earning well from their day jobs. "Influencing" is mostly their side hustle until they got to that level of audience.

But regular joes surely can't do that. And when properties / economy crash, many sure will suffer.

Fact is, not all property are poor so is their price. But not all are good or increasing either.

When you Buy To Invest, it already defeat the purpose of "accommodation". What more of those that buy affordable housing to "invest" or to "rent"?

Somemore, when you see the influencers start to deviate from their initial "purpose" - i.e. When Ads / Segue / Shoutout / Referral / Affiliate start to come in, and their video quality change, you know you are now the product.

buy according to ability

It's one of the best location I would say....

Quite strategic one if project take off successfully 👍

But the argument to that is cannot print infinite money right? Do you think in 100 years 10 million for condo is b40 ?

That place, as long the hsr is not settled, noting will happen.

Whether hsr to start first or property development to start is where the govt need to sort it out.

Hope the following is not another syiok sendiri talk ....

Influencers are normally paid by developers to promote the development.

Developers will only promote why their development is 'good' and the influencer will cont with how you can make quick money.

Many novice investors will then only look at the quick money side and seldom the development.

Can't fault the influencers cos they also have to cari makan. The real culprit is actually the developer. If the development sells by itself, influencers are not necessary.

Got I think it's either emporis or cova square

https://www.iproperty.com.my/property/kota-...sale-107671416/

I think emporis sold with some property guru package those days with 700-800 psf

Yea, if property price stagnant but inflation devalue the money then it means the property price has dropped relative to the new value of money.

My agent at my area proudly tell me "Price will never go down...in yr dreams lar..."

If there is no government interference, property price should have gone up. Now minimum wage rm1700, everything also more expensive, even wantan mee at kopitiam already selling at rm9, so how can property prices not going up?

Because the government is interfere the property market by building tremendous amount of affordable houses, making M40 difficult to accumulate wealth by investing in properties.

I beg to differ. I assume that you have put in a lot of work in the property investment and disappointed in the results. However, while a property is a investment for you, it is a necessity for many others.

I believe that the government didn't intervene enough and let market focus on short term gains over long term gains. That's the main reason for property overhang and a mismatch between supply and demand.

If the government has planned better like SG government, then more people can afford housing and can still earn from property investment.

Jutamines ah?

Bangi also rebrand as kl south ad

got any agent here covering KL/Ampang area? want to sell my condo
