Hello there I want, was wondering if you had any happy news. I like the studio options myself, and those you identified still seem to be the ones around. There is a plaza Damas phase 3 coming out, but again there is a lot of talk on how that influx of studios is going to affect all the other units that are currently in that area.
Give us an update.
Thx,
SNGNs |

This doesn't seem right. As an example, take Pantai Panorama's data above, this translates to 8.97% yield (excluding maint costs, QR, etc) which is already a very good prospect. It's just simple mathematics, isn't it? In that case, is the seller so stupid to sell it to you at such low pricing?? Or could it be maybe, the projected rentals have been over-inflated?
My theory is simple: if the potential returns are so obviously great, and obvious to the seller, he will have no reason to sell it to you at such an attractive price. He will definitely sell it higher price. |

Rolls sifu, that's the point I'm trying to make. If you were the seller holding this kind of property at such great yields, would you sell it off? At that price?
Surely there's some hidden story behind the numbers, like:
- potential rent is high, but few renters
- unit is tenanted, but tenants are not paying on time
- current rental is great, but becoming worse in the near term, due to new development coming up (cemetery, waste landfill area, etc)
What say you? |

What say you? | All valid comments & thank you for sharing. Sometimes, the ROI could be high because the selling price is depreciating! I can't think of a good example to quote now.
Therefore, all properties need to be investigated on a case to case basis.
Hope this helps. |

These returns can only be achieved if the buyer bought the condo for cash. If he took a loan, the monthly installments would eat into his profit margin so at the end of the day, he could be making little or no profit...
Personally, I don't think it's easy to become rich by solely depending on rental returns. Too much work for too little money leh  |

A succinct point there, Rollsroyce. I think that makes lot of sense - i.e. good returns on rental in the short term (for example, popular location), but a depreciating capital value in the longer term, for example due to expiring leasehold period or perhaps, high cost of repairs due to aging building.
For me, looking at rentals alone tell only part of the picture and all the knowledge, hopes and fears of the investor have been built into the market price (buying/selling) of the property. The advantage of the successful investor comes from knowing something else (in his favour) that the rest of the market has not yet factored in. And that is the secret formula that we are still lacking, making us the novice investors that we are  |
