Dear All,

Hi! I'm an Engineer getting a RM2K salary. I've been on the job close to a year now.

I'm planning to invest on real estate....preferably apartments for student/small family rentals. Basically, this is to enhance some passive income.

Since I'm a newbie....I need some solid advice on real estate and loans in Malaysia. Below is a load of questions...


1) Is an apartment worthwhile investing in?
2) Will the market value drop?
3) Is it better to have the apmt close to colleges to garner more students?
4) Where's the best place to invest for an apmt in Malaysia right now? Any recommendations?
5) What are the basic requirements in an apmt for students/small families?
6) What will you get for an apartment which is 150K-200K?
7) What are the kinds of loans I can apply to? What will be my commitment monthly/yearly?
8) Is there like a middle person to look after or maintain the property?

Appreciate your replies!!!!
