youngkies,

There is a 33% rule on loan.  So, to take a loan of RM1.7K, you need to earn 1.7K X 3 = Rm5.1K per month just to qualify for the loan.  This is assuming that you have NO OTHER LOAN repayment outstanding.  If you do, you need to earn a lot more.

So, it cannot be done with income of RM3k per month.

Dreamer, TS can always opt for longer loan tenure. A 200k house typically requires 180k loan, and current monthly repayment based on todays loan rate (5%) and 30 years is only RM966 per month.

Its a bit of a strecth, but do-able IMO.
