Malaysia Property

[Frogmen]

If you are going retire and you can make a good rental yield out of your Sgp house and retire comfortablely with the lower cost of living in Malaysia why not?

I have several friends who are my seniors already retiring in our neighbouring countries, while renting out their Sgp house. Not many people in Singapore have the luxury to do that. In fact i already have plans to do that when i retire. Life is short why work so hard.

Bro..why not consider the Tebrau Jaya Jusco there? Quite a numbers of new launch of semi-Detached and Apartment and I guess the security level there shd be better comapre to Nusa Bura…

However, dnt listen to the Agent and Bank office nonenses..unless they able to show u the statistic that the housing there are really selling fast if not better study & explore more 1st prior u make any decision...this is not few thousand purchase like buying watches but few hundred thousand purchase...just my 2cents...

About Nusa Bura ( Bukit Indah ) area..from that house it a walking distur to Jusco, tesco and giant too... Thanks bro, anyway i will consider no rush rush rite..?

is it NusaJaya near 2nd link which developed by UEM Land(GLC)? where Lego Land (to be opened on 2012), Medical Uni, water theme park, puteri habour(ready for parking yacht), Johor state gov administration hub, etc all will be there.

looking at Raffles group showing interest to invest at the same area, you might observe further. pls take note if the area is gated with fence for the whole compound.

That rite bro, it NUSA BURA developer by IJM land ...u have seen that area too?

But now i have to think carefully , about what all bro have mention ...anything can happen in malaysia.

My plan was buying that house for retire use and once aweek back singapore few days stay as holiday.

As my singapore house rent out better income/invest......

Should i still go ahead? Becoz nxt week i have to give that agent and bank officer to process my document liao.

need more adv tks.

Look beyond, I think Indonesia has a lot of potential too.

Be careful if you want to plunge your money. Know what you are buying like all has suggested.

No matter how good Singapore is.... spread your wealth. Never put all eggs in a basket. Never know for a tiny country like Singapore without resources and if confidences are lost, its worth nothing.

Don't think its worth it. Cannot use Singapore as an example when buying houses overseas. Singapore is a very unique case when it comes to property. The population is growing too rapidly with limited landspace. Don't think Malaysia will ever have this issue with their vast land available for development.

I agree 100%.Malaysia is so big and even in the city plenty of old areas to redevelop if there are buyers.

In addition, I am singaporean but have relatives from malaysia,I have 6 cousins and all 6 left malaysia to work overseas because of the discrimination, 3 are in Singapore , 1 in australia, 1 US and 1 Hongkong and all bought property in the countries they work and none own a single malaysian property!

yeah bro..thinking of getting a unit in Hartamas or Damansara.. any opinions/ideas of any new launches?

i think recently that a new launch of condo at Damansara bcos my fren just bought one there ard 750k for a +- 550ft2 Peronsally i like to hanging around at Hartamas and Mont Kiara but not staying there ...coz too high class for me

hey dennis...my friend is staying at Mont Kiara side....so many vacant units there and according to him a lot of the owners can't find anyone to rent them....but i must say the size is very good but the worksmanship sux (at least from the look of his rented unit)..he advised me against it...

those who bought the earliest condo sure getting a good return from the rental...during that time Sri Hartamas is still "infamous" and the condo there cost less thn a mil...but afterthat some othes developers also launch their condo which is not belong to the precinct of Hartamas or Mont Kiara by putting on the names like "Grand Hartamas" , "Mont Kiara Spring" etc and this really confuse the local and oversea buyer.

B4 i came to work in SG i was work with a Public listed developer firm in MY, my Project Manager need to organize a tour to bring a group of Hong Kong buyer to visit our so called "Hartamas" condo which is not belong to Hartamas precinct

The real high end condo is located at the golden triangle area...i guess Terrence and James shd know where is it

i am M'sian..if u asking me to invest property in JB i will say NO but if in KL i will say Yes .

If you can fork out RM 1-2 million then u may consider buying the condo (those less than 1000ft2) at Mont Kiara or Sri Hartamas area (most of the expatriate & celebrities stay there) and the rental return is pretty high..so far i know the highest rental is abt RM 6-7k...

The Rich Malaysians already come here n buy Snigapore properties in flocks

Why would 1 do the opposite and buy properties up North ?

If you are buying for own stay (retirement ) or needs (like running a biz there). Go for it.

For half a mill can only buy you a 99yrs HDB four room flat here.
