租金即将大跌40%?
ARE you currently renting or looking to rent? If you are, there might be some good news for you on the horizon.
Rental charged for condominium units is expected to drop by 20% to 40% due to an oversupply: as more and more of them become ready for occupancy and come onto the market, buyers are finding it difficult to sell their units for a good price and are being forced to rent them out for much cheaper than usual.
Siva Shanker, the immediate past president of the Malaysian Institute of Estate Agents (MIEA), says he is absolutely certain that for the next one to three years, the biggest winner will be the rental market.
“The guy who wants to rent will suddenly be able to find a nice, brand new condo with facilities for half the price it should actually go for,” says Siva, who is also the chief executive officer of PPC International Sdn Bhd, a property consultancy and real estate group.
This, he says, is because in 2012, 2013 and 2014, many properties were bought on speculation by those wanting to flip them – sell them – as soon as they were ready to be occupied.
And a lot of these condos will be ready at the end of this year and in 2016 and 2017.
These flippers, he says, did not put any of their money down because they took out a 100% housing loan (lending regulations were less stringent then) and also took advantage of DIBS, the developers’ interest-bearing scheme, in which the developer absorbs the interest of the housing loan during the construction period.
