When will property buying stops? When it’s unaffordable, right?

If this question is for the common people, then the answer is very simple. If our current income could not support us in buying a property, then the property is unaffordable to us. Could we make it affordable? Yes, we could if we are in Malaysia. We may not be able to do so in some countries. In Malaysia, if we like to buy a cheaper property, we buy a smaller unit, we can choose a high-rise versus a landed, we can choose to buy further versus a population neighborhood or we could also choose to buy a lower end type of property.

Are there still affordable homes in the Klang Valley?

I need a home which can accommodate 4-5 people. The home must have 3 rooms and 3 baths. The home must be near to my office and near to my son’s school and near to my wife’s favourite supermarket. The home has to come with tiptop security and super good facilities such as a pool, badminton courts, jogging track etc. The home must be priced below RM300,000.

Property prices are dropping! (except one type).

From the numbers as per Q1 2025 versus Q1 2024, it seems that the property price is dropping for three main house types! It has dropped for High-Rise, Semi-Detached and also Detached. The only one which is bucking the trend strongly is Terraced. Does this mean we should only buy Terraced moving forward then since this is the only type which is increasing in price? Well, if we do, then I do think the average prices will continue to rise and maybe rising even faster too.

Property Overhang in Malaysia. If you hated it last year, what happens this year?

I love to ask this question to any property investor who told me that there is a property overhang. If we are thinking of buying a property, please remember to choose a great property. Right price (not overpriced), right place (not in some place we would not even want to stay) and right product (not a property which the design we hated). All these questions are by far more important to be answered versus being stopped by OVERHANG property comment by some media whose writer may not even be a property investor.

Unsold and Overhang property. If these two are the same, then why use different terms…

Unsold property as the name says means unsold property. If it’s launched and unsold, it’s unsold property. If it’s still in construction and not yet sold, this is also unsold property. If the construction is completed and the property is still unsold, it’s also known as unsold property. However, as per National Property Information Centre (Napic), unsold property will become an OVERHANG property if the following condition is met:

As Malaysians await Budget 2026, the property market is at a crossroads. The 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) sets ambitious housing reform goals, including the delivery of one million affordable homes by 2035, but the real test lies in translating this ambition into measures that address what the market is experiencing today.
