Speculator seller can jack up 30%, but if buyer refuse to buy the after 30% jacked up price, transaction won't be done.
If sellers have difficult to sell with jack up price, naturally speculator and flipper will shy away the market, and there won't be so much buyers around for new properties, eventually price become more stable.

Remember RPGT only affected short term buyers and properties flipper/speculator, it won't affect the long term sellers.

Do fiscal or monetary measures have to be introduced only through the National Budget? We have a central bank tasked with financial and credit regulation that can impose new rules that may affect property prices as it deems prudent. If speculation gets too out of hand, BNM can regulate liquidity through the banking system. They are watching. The government is afraid to rock the boat now for political reasons but it may not have the luxury of choice if the crash emanates overseas in bubble markets before coming here.

Nice to see some sound advice. 

Gila.

First born baby coming to world already in debt. 

Cap limit 70% to LTV send a as very good alert to RE speculator.

Some may find a work around on this policy but, if speculation remained high, BNM may have next come out as other regional central bank did.

Speculator may more caution on their next move.

The one property that I viewed few weeks ago also seem not too hot already
before 70% LTV, agent told me better make decision quick, he has a lot of potential buyers eyeing the house, waiting to view the house...
but this week i receieve few calls from him pushing me for buying decision...

we also pakat not to buy ler then we'll see who can tahan longest

that time, 1 by 1 developer going down, they are forced to sell

There are things to take into consideratio, e.g land cost, material, market value etc. Developers are doing business to make profit and not a charity organization to help the poor.

Don't wait for uncertainties when its already certain and make your own decision either buy or wait for miracle to happen. This topic has been over 2 years and yet the value of the properties are still going up.

Well, cannot exactly call those who think price will fall as speculator as I doubt they are involved in driving up or driving down the prices. Those who fall into the category merely sit at the fence.

You can refer to the web and get people opinion and not pointing finger on others.
