Showster Twincharged October 12, 2019 Share October 12, 2019 Johor buy offers an outlet for us, and it is good to have. Will be interesting to compare buying three units of Johor property (600 or 700K SGD) versus one MM unit (also 600-700K SGD) in SG, and tracking the similarities and differences over time. From my interactions with colleagues who are renting out in Malaysia, the main concern is tenant quality. All kinds of scary stories. Appreciation, Mortgage, maintenance effort and quality - anyone has time to do a detailed comparison? 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karoon Turbocharged October 12, 2019 Share October 12, 2019 The condos around Legoland and gleneagles medini not too bad. Stayed at nice 30+ floor Airbnb instead of Legoland hotel. Much cheaper. But can't see the mall downstairs filling up soon. Too much competition for retail space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A RM 1million condo is way over priced in Malaysia.Worst still for those who bought into attractive township sold by various developers. Is not that we better to invest in Malaysia properties. I have seen people invest in Singapore condos, but ended up unable to get rental yields to cover the loan and maintenance of property. Is all about how to invest property in a well-thought of the downsides, rather than looking forward the upsides. I have a few friends that managed this well, due to their experience in Malaysia JB properties. Here are some advise for those who want to invest in Malaysia properties : 1. Never buy condo for more than RM500k. Average local middle income earnings, that is the limit. This is to allow you to sell not only to foreigners, but to locals too. 2. Buy into smaller number of units of a development. For example , not more than a few hundred units. 3. This said development , must be near many eateries and supermarkets serving mainly nearby critical mass of residents in mature estates that is already supporting the shops. But not the large shopping malls around that may in-turn make the place too noisy with traffic jams. This naturally becomes an unsafe place, where all kinds of people coming around. 4. The development must not be near to many other developments with huge number of units. It have to be mature development around. 5. Development that is near 10 - 15 mins drive to major industrial with many MNCs. If there is an airhub better still. But do ensure flights does not fly over the development, and is of a distance 8km -10km away. 6. Hitting expressways of not more than 10 - 15 mins away. Singapore property have own set of problems. Majority condo developments are targeted mass market. Many have flocked in between 2013 - 2016, paying as high as 900k of a 450 Square feet unit. How they find it hard to rent out, or rent at negative yield after all loans and maintenance deducted. Those who bought bigger units are also facing near negative yield after all loans and maintenance deducted, as of today. This group of property investors are mostly middle income earnings, praying that they don't lost their jobs, and sleepless nights for those on tight cash flows. So don't follow the crowd. This have been the biggest weakness in human. I have to do much leg job and homework. Always look at the downside first, follow-by upside will take care of itself. Ever it things turn bad, one is already prepare with enough buffer ahead, by not throwing large investment blindly. All very true but where is the good area to buy? If good location, good price, good development, good everything also all sold out. Got such thing as good location, good price, good development, good everything and still available? Anyone also can give good advice. If buy condo in Singapore buy near MRT, buy where got renters paying top dollar, buy in prime area, buy at cheap cheap price. Buy where can sell at double the profit. The only question is where got such as good condo? 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
