Totally agree !

Totally agree that's is what I am trying very hard to explain when I say better to put in FD now under such market conditions. You explain it best , bro !

Well if I have RM5m , I would put in FD and get RM210K pa ( or RM17,500 pm ) excluding compound interest . More than enough for my expenditure , why take unnecessary risk for more than you need ? Invest in JB properties with RM5M now can guarantee the same return in such market conditions ...

" Big job to fix " = mean cost you a bomb if developer refused to do it later , they will find some lame excuse to push the blame on your contractors , and maybe the way you bath also !

No lah , for Malaysia FD quite straight forward one . If kia see , just put everything you have in FD , forget about the higher interest they promise in those " varieties " option. I think FD is like parking and waiting for market to show sign of stability , waiting for better opportunity ...

Depend a lot on luck and your ability to spot the right retail location at the right price ( a price where businesses can operate with good profit after paying you rents) . For Capital 21 project , Hatten rental guarantee is 8% for first 2 year after TOP . I would say higher return , less...

Actually RHB have a FD+bonds that pay 7.8% but banker say only available for Malaysian . I don't think they tax on FD income. Normally properties price won't appreciate in a raising interest rate environment. Too costly to hold properties in such market , I think.

Not necessary for the case of JB properties at this point of time ( market conditions may change ) . Let say , you have a fully paid condo / house at RM 1M . 5yrs from now , how much you expect to fetch ? Maybe lower , looking at today market condition . What can you do about it ? Nothing...

UOB , OCBC .. 4.2% RHB .. 4.1% , RHB FD + investment bonds = 7.8% ! Can forget about rental liao ! Tell you all a real story ( please don't laugh at me hor ). Used to get rental from my cluster house located at a reasonably good location while waiting for interested buyers . Finally sell away...

Well like you say better then leaving it empty , even though we know it suck . Let say the house cost 700K fully paid . Might as well put in FD for 4.2% , which will fetch you $2450 per mth . Don't need to pay agent fees , pty tax , maintenance and no worry of tenant default , payment issue ...

Thanks Xebay11, very details and valuable input . We didn't think that deep at that point of time . Also didn't realized that the food court is Halal only ! That's very bad for business . Hopefully the African / Turkish / Middle East theme is not cast in stone. They actually didn't tell us...

Surely like to know your reasons for pulling out of Capital City . Like you say nothing much we can do . Maybe their concept work , as I notice a new trend of people shopping and eating out in malls rather than shop houses along the roadside. We already got a shophouse , we would like to...

Level 4, the food court level and main car park entrance. You in malaca , looking into their malaca project ? I think their malaca project might be better , unfortunately we cant operate there , too far away .

Level 4, the food court level and main car park entrance. Yes factor in worse case liao ! Maybe own self operate if they can't get good rent when contract ends . You in malaca , looking into their malaca project ? I think their malaca project might be better , unfortunately we cant operate...

Bro , you get me wrong . I am saying that the presentation of Capital 21 by the developer sound like faily tales , even their show room look like Alice in Wonderland .

Have being reading your " doom and gloom " posts on JB properties .... well it is hard true blah LOL ! In your earlier post , you say you where looking at Capital 21 project , but back off , despite the promising presentation that sound like a fairly tale LOL. We "unfortunately" brought a...

Can foreigners buy ( falsely declare as 1M ) ? or Setup a company for the purchase ?

Hello 3.005 or 3.05 , big different leh

Depend on what they import . If all import from China , SG100=CNY450 , If from India SG100=INR4500, If made in Singapore , SG100=RM500. Option 1 is more likely , so that neighbouring countries still LL , no fight !

Wow , freehold become leasehold = cleanest approach ? Heng Ah , I just get rid of my FH landed , otherwise it might become leasehold sooner or later. Well, for those who still got some meat better eat now than got nothing to eat later. :D
