I like the discussion in this thread. You guys given information, little by little add up to be very powerful one. I think "Onemorething" has a very good view beside from everyone else common view.

I can't say who is right who is wrong cause in the end, everyone will be right. Its just time will tell.

From my experience from playing stock(not very looonnngg exp), when everyone(including ah du & ah kau) thinks the stock market price will rise, rise & rise..... then its time to becareful. Same goes for the current property market, where everyone "generally", judging from this thread, does think that the only way for it is "UP".

I also agree that, maybe not all property price will be down, even if the worst case happen like what "onemorething" said, those area that shot up a lot on speculation will eventually suffer the most.

Another point I like to add is, no one will know what will happen next. Just like the share market, the big crash does not come when everyone realize it. This usually happen at the time when everyone is chasing high and higher...even when it(the crash) started, the people still very optimistic about it, otherwise, there will be no one get involved. Same goes in this property scene too.

But if you are not buying to flip or expect short term return, property is always the best investment over the long run.

Beware, current low interest really makes everyone "afford" to buy property, even salary as low as 5-6k per month could by nearly half million home. We are happy that we can bend the bank wrist now and ask for reduction of loan interest amount to base on BLR-minus package. I am sure they can bite back in future with high BLR rate....how? I don't know. I leave it to you to complete the rest of the imaginary...

so thread carefully in this stormy market.

my take...

i liked this idea.
And i really belief too that every1 speak with "vested" interest.
well...we are all humans afterall...but if some1 can provide evidence/analysis in their arguments, then that's really something different to me. It can be taken in as information. Other than that, all are speaking with "VESTED INTEREST"
