abang 222222222....my loan is 450k...

Wah 1997 i baru habis SPM loh still enjoying schooling life dont know anything ge loh ehehe

wah~1st house in 1997? u really BIG bro wo...

1997 i baru pmr...

haha...if 30 year tenure needed to top up 100++ oni mah, still can tahan. less one day clubbing will do.

but u needed to pray hard no future increase oh...ah mo onli tou fou.

ya~but that time the property value not damn high like now wat....

1997 is 14 years ago. Property prices will always adjust higher barring any negative circumstances. So price appreciation now is not a surprise. If anything, Malaysia lags behind other countries in property price increase.

If anyone thinks the high price now is not favourable, you'll in for another surprise when we go through another round of appreciation.

In many countries, unaffordable homes are a common bane. We are lucky in the sense we have a lot of government built or controlled homes. Once this is taken away and market forces alone dictate home prices, I can only say, 'brace for impact'.

Its easy for armchair analyst to say don't buy now because price has went up so much. I think everyone knows the adage, 'buy low and sell high'. Same goes for stocks, commodities, currency, unit trusts, and any other form of investment. But when is high, and when is low?
And remember, there is a big difference between investing in a home as opposed to those aforementioned. You can stay in the house you bought until the price is right.

At the end of the day, I'd say, if you can afford it, anytime is the right time to buy a good location property.

Well said

Dear Friends of bukit oug,
i believe there are quite a number of foreign immigrants residing in Bukit Oug without legal permits.
i wonder what is the management doing bout it.

recently , i received flyers saying that there was a break in at block 13. the management claimed the person responsible for this break in is living within bukit oug. the management wants us to help by reporting to them if there is any suspicious person hanging around.. i feel its stupid because there already know that there are lots of foreign immigrant within the building and they are the first to be suspected and the management should work hand in hand with the imigrattion to take actions against them. (THIS IS THE FIRST DUTY THAT THEY SHOULD ACCOMPLISH IN ORDER TO MAKE BUKIT OUG A SAFER PLACE FOR ALL RESIDENCE)

further more, i believe once the foreign immigrants are out of bukit oug, the property will be better in value too.

Concern, your title read a bit "racist"....maybe should reword them like "illegal immigrants - how to report them".....

just a suggestion......we all know that we DO need legal foreign workers in the country......the brick layers, the estate workers, the maids, the wait-persons that work in restaurants and etc.....we actually can't leave without them these days.....

RELA - the 4 letter word you need when comes to illegal immigrants. FYI there is nothing racist you just said

Agree. In fact, it should be management should work with immigration, police and local residents of OUG.

In fact, residents/owners play a big part. I've heard many complaints from residents about guards being too strict with regulations, and yet, lambast them when they see foreigners (illegal or not) in their compound.
Owners who do not stay in OUG will rent their units to just anyone, and that make the problem worse.

Unfortunately, this is a common thing in Malaysia. We can only hope that with the price and rental increase, the illegal immigrants will be priced out of the OUG market. To all owners who are renting their units out, please only rent to credible tenants. You actually make more when the overall quality of the condo improves. Ask yourself this, if the immigrants do not move out and are not paying rent, what can you do? You loss will be hundreds of thousand instead of the forgoing the thousand plus rental a month.

Simple math man. Think about it!!!

Early last year when i bought my unit, i bring along my Feng Shui Sifu, he said Feng Shui very good le (dont know what good Qi movement) that time i believe half lo, now totally agree (taktau apa feng shui, untung mei good feng shui lo)

but sad to say, most of the asking price cannot meet its bank valuation, home seeker cannot get a unit and seller are not willing to discount

YES , i agree with you.. of course we need them. we can live with them in this same building but with those who are hiding here without permits are those that we are fear of. would you like to have a group of illegal immigrants as your neighbors and knowing your children are near to them.

IMO, if you are very sure that the foreign immigrants without legal permits, actually you can report it to management. If you area really dun want to show your face, jz email them ask them to investigate and must feedback to you by email on the outcome....

I can't remember the email address, possibility is bukitoug@gmail.com. (Any brother can help on email address)

report to immigration dept. YES we still need them but not to PATI
