Buying a home in JB for a holiday or retirement is fine, but for investment (especially short term), it's crucial to consider the future SGD-MYR exchange rate and focus on properties with strong return potential.
I recently sold a condo and made a loss of SGD21K. SST went up 2% and Legal fees required by govt additional 0.25%. Buying property to stay and write off is ok. For investment its definitely a loss
You shouldnt visit the developer's showroom if you really want a real life perspective. There are tons of existing units in that development with owners with more complains and regrets than your extire life can sustain.
Aaron, I enjoy such content. Please film the condo without using the fisheye camera. If possible, please do more videos on Malaysia properties such as Eco World and Horizon Hills. Good job!
Aaron very interesting content but your fish eye video gives me a headache ! It is not comfortable to watch. I rather that you shoot using a cellphone...........I watched for 5 mins and then I have to log off before I freaked out !
JB properties always attract a cohort batch of nitwits buyers from Singapore every 5-8 years, selling on its cheap potential as compared to S'pore and RM exchange, but there's so much land in JB. Rent if u have to, but don't buy.
one of the biggest problem that no one has talked about in jb is the upcoming stress on their infrastructure and services that they are not prepared for. now is just a rush to push everyone to buy. everytime there is a fomo, is always always a very bad time to buy.
The problem is, Spore has become rather unaffordable. More n more people seem to be more frustrated and impatient. Becoming more n more like HK. So Aaron has given us an option esp as a retirement place
Guys I emphasise a lot in the video. Buy SG property better. This is just a option if u got extra money. Holiday home. Retirement home. You happy can already. This is just a option. Not the best option. Best option is still SG
@@AaronLin88588488 for Singaporeans who cant afford landed or condo in SG, buying one in Malaysia is good way of fulfilling that dream but Danga Bay is overpriced .
Hi Aaron...Sporean can only buy property above Rm 1mil, that is a big red flag. Because locals can easily get a brand new landed FH for 600k rm...here the locals have a saying , let Sgporean buy first and later sale much cheaper to locals. So go in with eyes wide open
Please watch first. Also not everyone want a landed due to many issues. So many units are block out for locals and for Malay locals only. So it's not true that only foreigner are buying. If you go country garden you will understand.
Sounds like you are interested in the MBW project. Why not consider getting one or two units there yourself and try the rental market? Still beats 1 HDB flat hands down in terms of price.... :)
exactly... i was told the rules, which changes all the time and can roti prata any time ah, who wants to buy a 1M property resale from foreigner... they can all get so cheap cos it's their local laws.. my ex colleagues who r Malaysians told me
if u haven't buy, i quote you "All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players" Shakespeare. If you already buy , i quote you another: "Double double, toil and trouble." Also Shakespeare.
No need to encourage lah bro. Already invested in properties in Msia and started businesses there. Buy Landed, not condos. Those things there never give is small issue lah! buy yourself lah!
JB is great for retirees & WFH/Digital nomad people (who don't need to be in S'pore most of their time). S'pore is getting too expensive to live. For a retiree wanting to enjoy the 5 C's (Condo, car, cointry club, cash & credit card), JB is still very affordable for S'poreans. Don't ever listen to other people's opinions. You make your own decisions based on what you can see & feel. The good life in S'pore is already unattainable. In retirement, people should be rewarded for their past sacrifice, not still having to live a life of sacrifice & deferred consumption. If one has the means, I say go for it.
I have called them. Yes below one million can buy but you only get a studio apartment there. *R&F Princess Cove* *Studio Premium Seaview Unit* 1B1B 544sqft Single Storey ✅Loan Net : RM 840,852 - RM 881,371 ✅Cash Net : RM 759,546 - RM 796,147
Buying is one thing. Selling will be quite another cos the locals won’t buy condo if they can buy landed. So if locals don’t buy then the pool of buyers are a small pool of foreigners. So unless buying to stay or for retirement, I would say the $150k is better invested elsewhere without all the legal hassles.
@@hummit don't think this is true. They have many cases of locals from other parts of Malaysia coming to jb to buy or rent such small units that is at a more affordable price
Anyway please watch the video carefully. 1. Not all the new launch there Singaporean can buy below 1 million rm. 2. I won't pay 1 million rm 3. This is near Woodlands near rts. Not forest city which is at legoland 2nd link side.
Interesting video. I went on recently to see see look look too. I was told Princess Cove, SG dun need 1M.. 500k is ok.. another suggestion is you can do Semi D and terrace in Jb in next video

DANGA BAY NOT DANYA . =) please watch the full video to get the correct information before you make any comment.
I also feel the fish eye camera doesn’t give a real sense of the actual unit . Prefer just regular camera.
Thanks for the review .

Hello Aaron, do you mind elaborating more on why the RTS wont affect property prices?
Good timing to do this video and good information
I shared more in my telegram group. You can check it out there. t.me/+SB5zf1LI1qqEuiFA
Just bought 2 bedder there (country garden) for future buyers, my advice is to do your homework before first
you regretted ?
Thanks Aaron for showing us the JB condos..help us better understand the options.
@@MC-learns-to-retire yes you are correct. It's about understanding the options better.
JB properties always attract a cohort batch of nitwits buyers from Singapore every 5-8 years, selling on its cheap potential as compared to S'pore and RM exchange, but there's so much land in JB. Rent if u have to, but don't buy.
if there no minimum purchase, still can consider. the minimum purchase is like absd.
one of the biggest problem that no one has talked about in jb is the upcoming stress on their infrastructure and services that they are not prepared for. now is just a rush to push everyone to buy. everytime there is a fomo, is always always a very bad time to buy.
Their laws can change anytime and the house may not be yours or like last time they introduce new laws sporean must pay additional 100k
Aaron , thanks for sharing but the wide angle made my head spinning man 😂
@@shahir3492 hahahahah👍
This project is only popular with PRC. For Singaporeans and Malaysians Bukit Indah area is preferred or buy near the RTS.
Good information ! I hv consider renting there then buying an estate .
Too complicated and policy changes by their ministry
Good sharing. Malaysia is more livable than Singapore. Bigger house and car in Malaysia. Everything in Singapore is so small and cramped.
@@liamporter1137 frankly I prefer Singapore hahaha but a holiday home. Maybe. Why not?
If can afford SG it is better

Is the DB 400k plus property freehold or leasehold?

Can buy below 1 m in some parts of JB like Medini.
@@AaronLin88588488 agree..but condo is another whole different thing ...if above leak..good luck
It is not that the government does not care about AirBnB, from what I know, you need to check whether the land is classified Commercial or Residential
Thanks for the great insights Curious if they are lease hold or freehold?
@@Sporky888 should be freehold
1million is crazy price and valuation
Sounds like you are interested in the MBW project. Why not consider getting one or two units there yourself and try the rental market? Still beats 1 HDB flat hands down in terms of price.... :)
May be you should have a roadside interview in Malaysia. Audit how many local Malaysian willing to buy condo from Singaporean?
exactly... i was told the rules, which changes all the time and can roti prata any time ah, who wants to buy a 1M property resale from foreigner... they can all get so cheap cos it's their local laws.. my ex colleagues who r Malaysians told me
Whoa. Weee wor weeee. Towkay now video in JAY BEEEE
how about maintenance fees? If staying in HDB can buy JB property?
@@lynnc9531 I shared in the video. Around 80sgd a month including the designated carpark
@@lynnc9531 singaporean can, after mop
Nice trip to JB. How do they report the government valuation so foreign buyers can know?
If u own one. Every year their "property tax" can check. But they don't call it property tax hahahaha
But for these new launches I intro, they already got approval to sell to singaporean. Those that need check valuation is resale market.
if u haven't buy, i quote you "All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players" Shakespeare. If you already buy , i quote you another: "Double double, toil and trouble." Also Shakespeare.
JB property market very complex, need more research
Pls provide floor area for units
