Dear Cybermaster,Can u check and tell me what seems to be the problem with this condo: Pelangi Indah, Jalan Ipoh. Seems that most banks not providing loans for this condo. Its already 15 yrs old and a friend of mine is trying to purchase from the 1st owner.
I have a check on your inquiry, however, there isn't much historical background for this particular condo. Based on my preliminary checking, Pelangi Indah seemed to have a good price but with a comparative poor rent. Rent to price ratio is indeed a bit low. For your information, there are certain properties which either had been abandoned by the developers and being rehabilitated by the other developers, or, the initial developer had been bought over by others and resulted there is multiple change of ownerships. For these 2 kinds of scenario, banks will be very reluctant to finance such properties as (1) the conditions of the completed properties might not be the same condition as specified earlier, and (2) to encourage the buyers to buy from reputable developers instead of the formers that I mentioned previously.
It is not advisable to purchase the properties which are difficult to obtain financing from the banks as there must be a reason behind this, in which the properties can be (1) very unlikely to appreciate, (2) conditions and fitness of properties are uncertain, (3) very hard to be sold (new buyers face difficulty in obtain financing, thus, reduce the demand for the properties, eventually, lower value).
Kindly advice your friend to opt a better option. If he were willing to take up the risk (or simply, he just love the unit), kindly let us know and we can try to help out and obtain financing for him, however, we are unable to guarantee the best rate for him. Thanks.
