Singaporean Buying Malaysia Property - What You Should Know First!

Singaporean Buying Malaysia Property - What You Should Know First!
I am going to talk about Singaporeans buying Malaysia property. What you should know first before parting away your heart earn money!
I believe with the upcoming RTS linking Singapore and Johor Bharu. There are a lot of interest on property around the Bukit Chagar Station. Property developers are excited. Analysts are also bullish that new record prices can be achieved. Singaporean are also excited because they can finally own a condo at 1/3 the prices in Singapore.
For Singapore buyers. Please watch until the end. What I am going to share. Can be a deal breaker for you.

    Wow! Spot on mate. Thanks for telling the truth and nothing but the truth. I want add on a few things that Singaporeans may not know about condos in malaysia:- 1. Maintenance of condo is appalling. Any condo over 5 years old have various maintenance issue like frequently spoilt lifts, damage / dirty swimming pool and common areas. Why? Coz most owners don't pay for maintenance 2. Security. If you think your condo is safe because you have a guard, you are dead wrong. Breakin happens and guess who conspired with the thieves? 3. Land size. The land area in johor is big and as a result there will always be newer and newer condos with state of the art facilities (for a price, of course) making your unit untenable after 5 years, which looks old, full of maintenance problems and dated. Hard to sell, hard to rent out. Check mate. Look at Danga Bay condos. Its dead. 4. Depreciating ringgit. MYR is expected to depreciate against SGD in the long term. So don't be surprised if 1SGD= 4 MYR. That would wipe out any capital appreciation and you still need to pay a 10% RPGT. All in all you will be considered very very lucky to just break even nevermind gains Bottom line, rent if you want to live in JB. After 2-3 years move to newer condos

    Yeah rent and stay one month before buy, malaysia is not so transport and pedestrian friendly like singapore. No car is = no leg. With the money u loan to buy the house, might as well just rent landed long term. 2k myr monthly can get whole house, dont get trapped by the mindset of ownership or freehold, we are here just for less than 100 yrs

    Alan, Malaysia Ringgit Weakness and the Past Property prices drop means for the new investors or buyers in Malaysia buying property have lesser RISK and more probability from Capital Appreciation. This is the opposite contrast from Singapore Property where prices have been only in 1 way UP UP UP. You can argue with me saying cannot drop one lar. Singapore property solid solid like Golden Egg. But when Ringgit start to strengthen and the roller coaster ride from bottom start to slowly move up. You know what I mean. Anyway investing in property is about Timing. Do your own due diligence.

    Well… do agree with you on condos > 1m Myr. I have not seen any sizeable number of transactions above purchase price in the past 15 years and I don’t expect to see any. Johor is a dud from a RE investment perspective. It can only be viewed as a “retirement” purchase where one is comfortable with gradual capital loss and significant currency loss (viewing an acquisition from a sgd or usd angle).

    Malaysia foods are more delicious and tastier because the Malaysia foods are heavier and stronger in taste, more salt and more sugar. Once you tasted foods of a heavier and strong taste, like drugs, more and more drugs, all the way, no turning back. Thus, Singapore foods will not taste better than the Malaysia foods because Singapore foods are lighter in tastes, less salt and less sugar.

    If one die die want to buy Malaysian property i suggest buying landed Gated & Guarded property in KL/Selangor. > RM1m is common and 1) target catchment area is much larger as there are more people in KL/Selangor making it better in terms of capital appreciation and easier to offload 2) Demand for these >rm1m landed is more forth coming from locals in KL/Selangor as the wages in those states are generally higher 3) More Malaysian chinese in those states which have more disposable incomes and better paying jobs to buy those properties. No disrespect to the malay and indian communities in Malaysia but statistically their income and disposable incomes are much lower.

Most Malaysians prefer landed property. I used to own a service apartment and sold it at a loss - still ok- people steal things by entering the rubbish chute.

    Talking about the Rich, are Fines equally deterrent to the Poor vs the Rich for same type of fine? Let's say traffic fine is $300. To the poor, it's devastating. To the rich, it's sup sup water. So, what is the deterrence in terms of traffic fines being the same for the rich and the poor? Many other situations fall into the same category of issues. Eg. COE. What is the effect of COE on the non-rich vs the Rich who have the same necessity for a family car? Can one rich man alone buy two cars and two COE contributing to higher demand for COE? Any comments?

    Never, never buy property in johor. Nobody ever make money from property there. If you are really lucky, you can only sell 50% from your purchase price. First of all, most developers want to cheat you. And no guarantee that you will get your strata title. Tiara Desaru is just one example. Eventually, you becomes a cash cow for the developers and the Malaysian government. BELIEVE ME.
