Prices for residential property in Malaysia are likely to increase over the coming 12 month believe the country’s leading developers, according to a report from the Real Estate Housing Developers’ Association Malaysia (REHDA).
The survey found that three quarters of the association’s members believe that home values will rise in 2012, with 36 per cent of members predicting a 10 to 20 per cent increase in prices. One third believe prices will increase five to 10 per cent.
REHDA says business confidence and optimism levels in the domestic real estate sector is lower than it was half a year ago.
“Our members are more cautious towards market conditions due to more compliance requirements imposed on the housing industry, global economic uncertainty and inadequate information and data with regards to onstream demand and supply,” said REHDA president Datuk Seri Michael Yam.
Earlier this month, housing and local governent minister, Datuk Seri Chor Chee Heung said that property values will play an important part in transforming the country into a high-income nation by 2020. He said Kuala Lumpur’s property market would help establish the city as a major economic centre and facilitate a trickle down effect on the rest of the country.
