All about the Budget The highly awaited Budget 2015 which is scheduled to be held this month is said to be aimed at improving the living standards of Malaysians. According to Malaysia’s Prime Minister Najib Razak, the Budget will continue to stimulate the country’s growth and improve its fiscal position as well as its people’s standards of living. In our iProperty.com Asia Property Market Sentiment Survey (H2) 2014, we had asked Malaysians what they would like the budget to deliver in terms of the property industry. The top three requests were better control on house prices, better public transportation and more low-cost and affordable housing in strategic locations. Read more about what others in the industry are also expecting from the Budget on pages 36 to 39.

HAPPENINGS Andaman Accepts the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge neurons, which reach from the brain to the spinal cord and eventually the muscles, and eventually leads to total paralysis and/or death. In order to create awareness of the disease, the ALS Association launched a campaign where participants record a video in which they announce their acceptance of the challenge and pour a bucket of ice on themselves before issuing the challenge to others who must comply within 24 hours. Those who are challenged must donate US$10 to ALS research if they accept or US$100 if they refuse. The campaign quickly went viral on social media with both celebrities and regular folk alike taking up the challenge. Having been dared by Property Ki Sdn Bhd’s Head of Marketing Chris Ooi to take part in the popular ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, Andaman Property Management Sdn Bhd’s Managing Director Dato’ Sri (Dr) Vincent Tiew graciously accepted and took part in support of the good cause. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), better known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease which causes the gradual degeneration of motor

The challenge was carried out at Andaman’s headquarters in KL on 25th August 2014 and involved 11 of the company’s personnel including Vincent Tiew himself. He then issued the challenge to Dato Eric Chong, Founder and Managing Director of Erican Education Group and President of the Branding Association of Malaysia; Dato’ Liaw Choon Liang, President of the Malaysia Retail Chain Association (MRCA) and Tan Sri William Cheng, President of the Malaysian Retailers Association (MRA).

A Man with a Plan

Exciting times are ahead for Mah Sing with the company reaching its 20th anniversary milestone and a new CEO ready to lead it through another 10 years of triumphs. - BY ONG XIN YING

Nominated to his position on 1st July 2014, Mah Sing Group Berhad’s CEO Ng Chai Yong is more than prepared to take the company to a new level of success as it celebrates its 20th anniversary. iProperty.com Malaysia spoke to the new helmsman of Malaysia’s premier lifestyle developer to discover more about the man himself and his plans for the next decade of the company’s journey.

Ng Chai Yong, Mah Sing Group Berhad’s CEO

Please tell us a little about yourself. I have close to 30 years of experience in the civil engineering, banking and property industries. After serving as a consulting engineer for three years, I spent four years in the banking industry starting with Citibank in Kuala Lumpur followed by Keppel Bank in Singapore.

of directors, share insights for the improvement of our employees’ performance, successfully preside over the organisation’s day-to-day operations and hopefully take Mah Sing to the next level.

Upon my return to Malaysia, I joined S P Setia Berhad where I served in numerous capacities for 11 years with my last position being Director and General Manager of Bukit Indah Johor Sdn Bhd as well as CEO of Setia Eco-Park Sdn Bhd where I handled large property developments in both the central and southern regions of Malaysia. Subsequently, I joined FCW Holdings Berhad as an executive director of one of its subsidiaries, FCW Property Management Sdn Bhd, before winding up where I am today.

What would you say are some of the most significant moments of Mah Sing’s 20-year history? Mah Sing’s key success factor is the business model we have used for the past 20 years which hinges on fast turnaround. Land acquisitions in multiple locations and quick launches allowed us to tap into immediate market demand and enjoy good take-up rates. Additionally, we invest in research and development to ensure our projects meet our buyers’ needs and complement their lifestyles. Timely delivery is another of our strengths and we are proud of our good track record.

How does your vast prior experience help in your current position at the helm of one of the country’s biggest property development companies? I hope that with the experience that I have gathered thus far, I am able to provide strategic advice to the board

Our success can also be attributed to our great team of dedicated, skilled and loyal professionals who work together to achieve a common objective and vision. Another factor in play is that over the years we have cultivated a panel of trusted and experienced contractors, architects, consultants and suppliers who helped us achieve our goals. We also believe in human resource development as our staff are the people who make the company. Why is Mah Sing’s 20th anniversary celebrations themed ‘20 Years of Building Memories’? Since 1994, we have shared our dedication, love and passion for quality homes with Malaysians and have developed a legacy of excellence in providing warm memories to the residents of our properties. Home is a place full of sweet remembrances, so we chose the theme of ‘20 Years of Building Memories’ for our campaign because we wish to invite everyone to celebrate this milestone together with us.

As the new CEO of Mah Sing, what are your plans for the next 10 years? The property industry is a cyclical one and as a successful developer, Mah Sing is dedicated to reacting based on what point we are in the cycle and offering the right type of products at attractive price points to match that. We have extended our strategy in recent years to reflect our current scale of operations and are ready to acquire and develop large tracts of strategic land. Additionally, we are looking to venture overseas for new sources of earnings growth but our core principles of speed, discipline and innovation remain the same.

It is my ambition to bring Mah Sing to a higher level of growth with an increasing number of new projects each year.

YOUR SAY | Budget 2015: A Wish List

BUDGET 2015

A Wish List

With the tabling of Budget 2015 around the corner, iProperty.com Malaysia compiled the hopes of some of the industry’s bigwigs. - BY BRANAVAN ARULJOTHI

The revised Real Property Gains Tax ( RPGT) rate and the banning of interest bearings schemes, combined with Bank Negara Malaysia’s revised loan-tovalue (LTV) ratio and hike in the overnight policy rate caused what many refer to as a kneejerk reaction post-Budget 2014. In 4Q2013, concerns were raised by property experts, developers as well as homebuyers on how the cooling measures would change the landscape of the property industry. Fast forward to the present and the industry is seemingly unfazed by the changes, with many developments seeing impressive take-up rates. With Budget 2015 looming closer, iProperty.com Malaysia sought various opinions on what the property industry expects from it. Property experts, notable developers and everyday homebuyers provided their insight via this ‘Budget Wish List’.

36 |

WISH LIST • Further improvement of infrastructure • Developer incentives for affordable housing • Lowered home loan interest rates The government should provide more incentives for developers to build more affordable housing equipped with good infrastructure and public transportation in strategic locations. This will meet the demands of Malaysians looking to invest in affordable property as sentiments have shown that they are looking to purchase property below the RM500,000 range. I am also hoping that further incentives will be provided for developers who embark upon building affordable housing. Additionally, along with the upcoming MRT and LRT projects, further improvements to the infrastructure and transportation system should be carried out as well. The government should also probably look at bringing back the Developer Interest Bearing Scheme (DIBS) but make it more skewed in favour of firsttime homebuyers within a certain income bracket or property purchase budget. According to the iProperty.com Asia Property Market Sentiment Survey (H2) 2014, consumers are of the opinion that interest rates for home loans are high. Ideally, a decrease in interest rates would be something that should be included in Budget 2015.

GEORG CHMIEL Managing Director and CEO, iProperty Group

WISH LIST • Amend the Bumiputera quota • Engage in land swap • Amend the GST rates and ban DIBS • Amend limitations to foreign purchases Along with my wish list, I definitely think that DIBS should be completely banned. This scheme has led to many young people purchasing properties without any commitment or reminders that come via ‘monthly interest’ payments. If this continues, it will eventually result in more bad debts within the country.

IR. TAN CHEE KIAN Group Chief Executive, iKHASAS GROUP

Additionally, affordable housing policies can be implemented more effectively if the government engaged in a ‘land swap’ programme with competent developers. To me, affordable housing does not only entail the low cost of the house. The best way to offer affordable housing to eligible buyers is, for example, for the government to cover RM200,000 for a RM400,000 property via the ‘land swap’. The last budget also re-evaluated the taxes and limitations for foreign purchases. It is my opinion that the limit should be abolished altogether except for affordable housing and be replaced with an added tax over the sale and purchase price. As for the Bumiputera quota, a trust fund should be set up. Developers should be allowed to release their Bumiputera quota units after approximately three months from the launch of the property. The 7% difference between the original and the Bumiputera-discounted selling prices can be paid before the unit changes hands to a non-Bumiputera buyer and the sum can be deposited into the trust fund.

YOUR SAY | Budget 2015: A Wish List WISH LIST • Reconsider foreign purchase price cap • Reconsider Malaysia-Singapore toll hikes • Minimise the increase in land prices in Iskandar

SEAN TAN General Manager, iProperty.com Singapore

Singaporean property buyers continue to be interested in Malaysia which is ranked as the number one international property market for people in Singapore with Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Iskandar as the most important markets. Restrictions imposed on foreign buyers in Malaysia in Budget 2014, through the RPGT and minimum price cap of RM1 million, were specifically designed to reduce foreign interest and address the rapid rise in property prices although Iskandar’s Medini was exempted from this. The government needs to be sensitive to affordability for its citizens but also needs to manage the impact on Malaysia as a property investment destination. These restrictions have impacted Singapore buyers’ views of Malaysia. According to the latest Singapore Asia Property Market Sentiment Report, interest in Malaysian property declined by almost 10% compared to 2H2013, though interest and confidence in Iskandar Malaysia remains sky high.

WISH LIST • Revise LTV ratio • Increase land allocation for developers • Revise corporate tax rates Loan approvals should be open to borrowers based on personal capacity. For example, the currently imposed loan margin of 70% for a third residential property is very unfriendly and not a very effective way to curb property speculation. In this instance, a property investor would be deterred or blocked from continuing to invest in Malaysia’s economy. Secondly, the government, both state and federal, should allocate more land to private developers at no charges for the sole purpose of building affordable housing projects. To monitor this, the government should stipulate and fix the selling prices of the properties. In regards to this, the government should reconsider the Bumiputera quota in private property developments. Additionally, with the impositions of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) in 2015, the personal and corporate taxes should be revised to be lower to justify and balance the economy. This is probably a unanimous wish amongst all Malaysians.

DATO’ SRI (DR) VINCENT TIEW Managing Director, Andaman Property Management

WISH LIST • Allow Bumiputeras to sell their property to non-Bumiputeras • Better connectivity between train lines • Rejuvenate old estates and low-cost housing I applaud the PM’s pledge to build 80,000 affordable homes under the 1Malaysia’s People Housing’s Project priced 20% lower than market price. However, I also hope these homes will be well maintained so that it will in turn result in capital appreciation for the public.

KHALIL ADIS iProperty.com Brand Ambassador (Iskandar Malaysia) property speaker and author

There should also be some flexibility for Bumiputeras to sell their homes to foreigners as we have seen circumstances in which finding buyers for Bumiputera homes have been difficult. The benefit must always be for the Bumiputeras to increase, not decrease, their capital value. With the upcoming MRT project, there should also be plans to seamlessly connect them to affordable housing projects to encourage people to take public transport.

WISH LIST • Rehash PR1MA plans • Continue with current endeavours What we have to understand is that we are heading towards developed nation status and as such houses will become less affordable. Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong are good examples where with the developed nation status; property prices are less affordable for the average person in the street. Malaysia, or the Klang Valley at least, the average price is about RM640,000 and in Selangor, RM414,000. If the inflation rate compounds at 7%, this means that the prices will double every decade. Those wanting to buy properties should brace themselves for this. The government knows what it is doing, so as an investor one should adapt. As for PR1MA, there has been some bad reviews, so they have to rehash the marketing plan, let people visit the houses and have a more ground-level approach. Most PR1MA buyers are from Generation X and are not online savvy. Buying property online is not the norm here yet, so the government should work towards providing justice for the PR1MA project.

ADRIAN WEE Property Entrepreneur & Founder of Interior Design King

WISH LIST • Restore interest bearing schemes • Revise stamp duty charges • Developer incentives to develop outside Klang Valley Many of my friends around my age purchased their first homes using the DIBS and most of them have admitted that they would not have been able to afford such investments without the scheme. Like many, I am sure, I too think that the government should revisit the ban and allow exceptions for first-time buyers.

NISHANTI BALASHANMUGAM Senior Associate, professional services firm)and homebuyer

In regards to the perennial problem of affordability, I believe the rising prices of property are largely due to high demand. I think the government should create a provision to encourage property developers to focus on areas outside of Klang Valley. At the same time, the government should also work on bettering the public transport network in the outskirts to encourage buyers to purchase homes in these areas. As far as speculation prevention is concerned, perhaps a revised stamp duty charge may be a far more effective way to curb it.

WISH LIST • Restore DIBS for first time homebuyers • Implement flat RPGT rates • Reduce GST rate If I had my way, I would make some amendments to some of the cooling measures implemented in last year’s Budget. I would reinstate interest bearing schemes but limit them to first-time homebuyers. As for the RPGT, they should set a flat rate of 30% for the first five years. This will further help reduce potential speculation. Additionally, there should be a blanket ban on any and all kinds of property clubs. As far as 2015’s pending Budget goes, I would suggest that the rate of the GST be reduced from 6% to something along the lines of 2.3%. When combined with reduced contributions to authorities such as Tenaga Nasional Berhad, Syabas and Indah Water, this will reduce construction costs which will hopefully result in making homes more affordable.

Tax Trail | Taxing Expectations for Budget 2015

Taxing Expectations for Budget 2015 The property industry may be facing a barrage of taxes, but this does not mean that there are no possible solutions to how their effects may be lessened. - BY ONG XIN YING

property developers will definitely see their costs rising especially if they are undertaking residential projects. Even though residential properties are exempted from GST which means that the developer cannot charge GST to the buyers, developers will still incur additional expenses from the GST applied to their costs which they cannot recover from the government. Calculations have shown that price increases throughout the supply chain will result in a cost increase of approximately 3-4% of the current prices. This means that developers will either have to absorb the additional costs and reduce their profits or pass on the costs to the buyers.

With Budget 2015 around the corner, it is time once again for all parties to weigh in on what they expect or hope to see in the new Budget. The one important topic at hand is undoubtedly taxes especially with the Goods and Services Tax (GST) looming on the horizon. As such, iProperty.com sought out the expert views of Fennie Lim, Tax Executive Director of Crowe Horwath KL Tax Sdn Bhd on the tax angle of Budget 2015, specifically in relation to the property industry. According to the most recent iProperty.com Asia Property Market Sentiment Report, more than half of the respondents think that the GST will affect their purchasing decisions as they believe it will increase property prices. What are your comments on these findings? I agree with these sentiments because moving forward,

40 |

Nevertheless, people still prefer to invest in tangible assets with property being one of the most popular choices. While I am quite certain that property prices will increase gradually despite the softer market sentiment right now, I also believe that those who are brave enough to take the leap now shall see the returns on their investments over the long term. As for the concerns over the GSTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effect on property prices, my view is that developers would have taken the extra costs into account when pricing their newly-launched projects but older projects are unaffected and hence are worth buying. As a tax expert, what are your opinions and/or suggestions on the aspect of property-related taxes in the Budget 2015? There are four taxes which are tied to the property industry and they are the stamp duty, income tax, Real Property Gains Tax (RPGT) and of course GST. Stamp duty is quite adequate at the moment and no changes are expected. As for income tax, developers often find this challenging because they have to pay their taxes based on the projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s estimated profit and stage of completion. Things become difficult when it comes to

developers’ final accounts because they are required to give the project’s final account to the tax authorities upon completion of the project even though the warranty period is still in effect. Hence, developers are required to pay all their taxes based on their estimations instead of a confirmed figure. My recommendation would be for the Inland Revenue Board to adopt a more lenient approach by allowing the final account to be submitted upon the expiration of the project’s warranty period. Moving on to the RPGT, we noted that there have been a number of changes to the RPGT rates over the past six years of assessment. In particular, Budget 2014’s RPGT rates have been immensely harsh on investors, so I believe that a return to the old rates of 30% for a disposal within 2 years, 20% for 3 years, 15% for 4 years, 5% for 5 years and 0% for anything longer will help encourage investors to invest in Malaysia. Last but not least, the GST will prove to be a significant challenge to the property industry for reasons related to the supply chain issue which I touched on earlier. As such, I think the government should give GST concessions for all property sale agreements signed before GST kicks in on 1st April 2015. Another item on my ‘wish list’ would be for the government to allow GST registration for joint venture property projects. Tax-wise, is the government doing enough to encourage developers to create more green projects? Currently, there are not many tax-based benefits for green developments except for an exemption of income for owners of buildings who incur additional greenrelated expenditures on their buildings and an exemption of stamp duty for buyers of green buildings.

Fennie Lim Phaik Hui, Tax Executive Director, of Crowe Horwath KL Tax Sdn Bhd

This, I believe, is an area that merits improvement. The government should consider more ways to encourage green development projects, such as allowing developers to claim double tax deduction on certain qualifying expenditures for building green projects.

Seremban Sentral With big development plans in the works, Seremban is set to maximise the potential of its proximity to the Klang Valley.

The district of Seremban consists of a total of eight sub-districts, with a total size of approximately 95,000 hectares. Within its eight sub-districts, Seremban Town and Seremban have a total hectare of approximately 5,700, with a total population of approximately 90,000 (Department of Statistics, Malaysia, 2010). Governed under the Seremban Municipal Council, Seremban Sentral acts as one of the oldest schemes in the Seremban District, and is the administrative centre of Negeri Sembilan. Located in the middle of the remaining seven sub-districts, it encompasses about 2,335 hectares. Existing developments in the township are a mix of residential and commercial properties, with most houses, shops and offices being low-rise. The township is good enough to call itself a self-sustained city, whereby it is well-equipped with facilities such as hotels, hypermarkets, commercial hubs, hospitals and various points of interest such as the Palm Mall, Seremban Prima Mall, Seremban Centre Point, Angsana Seremban, Empayar Seremban Siew Pow and more.

42 |

Highways and major roads connecting Seremban to other districts or states are the North South Highway, Lebuhraya Kajang Seremban (LEKAS), Jalan Kuala Pilah, Lebuhraya Seremban Port Dickson, Jalan Tampin, Jalan Sg Ujong, Jalan Mantin, Jalan Labu, Jalan Jelebu and more. Currently, the KTM rail service is its only comprehensive public transportation system. However Terminal One Seremban also serves buses travelling to other states as well as the KLIA and KLIA2, which are both located not too far away. The proposed High-Speed Rail (HSR) link between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore is expected to make travelling to and from Seremban much more convenient, as one of the planned stops between KL and Singapore is expected to be placed in Seremban. The train, that is estimated to be able to carry up to 49,000 passengers daily by its 10th year of operation, is targeted for completion in 2020 and will travel from KL to Singapore in 2.5 hours.

The transacted prices for the residential and commercial properties in Seremban Sentral have generally been inconsistent, which is possibly due to the existing, aged properties that are going through renovation, refurbishment and maintenance. It is noted that in 2013, terraced houses recorded the most active transactions but as as July 2014, only 10 units were transacted from the selected kind of property from selected schemes. On the other hand, shop-offices recorded its most active transactions in 2011 but just like terraced houses, July 2014 recorded a low-rate of transactions at 11 units. Possibly due to the change of lifestyle and tilting towards new properties that offer new features and design, schemes in both Seremban and the Klang Valley experienced similar circumstances. Safety, quality of life and the elimination of aged properties are also possible factors.

Height control is the tool utilised by the local authority to shape the fabric of a city, helping make it neat and attractive. Seremban Sentral’s skylines are restricted in terms of building height to ensure that the great views are unblocked. It also helps in density control. This results in the low visibility of any high-rise buildings within the city. Many of the younger generation opt to move to larger cities like the Klang Valley to seek better job opportunities and pay and as a result, the slower pace of Seremban and mentality of the locals have caused hesitation amongst developers in developing high-rise properties. To locals, fancy gadgets and skyscrapers are not desirable, thus most of dwellings are landed properties and not high-rise developments. Even on-going projects, with the exception of Menara MAINS and the 343-room hotel taken over by Lu Strong Development after its abandonment, are mostly low-rise developments. The prices for new products have not been easy on buyers either, with the best example being the double-storey terraced houses in Chemara Hills. The homes are being sold at RM739,000 and more, when recorded transaction over the last few years have been below RM400,000.

The government has also put in a lot of effort to realise the affordable housing scheme, PR1MA @ Seremban, with a total area of 20.36 acres located in Seremban Town. It is open for registration. The development, in Seremban Sentral, will be done simultaneously with the revamp of the existing Seremban KTM station, which will turn some73 acres of the surrounding areas into an integrated hub for transportation, residential, commercial and retail activity. In the meantime the PR1MA houses in Seremban Utara – 118.3 acres located around Persiaran Desa Temiang – is due to be launched soon. A rather established scheme, Seremban Sentral’s buildings already occupy a very large portion of the available land. Despite that, the city’s height restrictions will maintain its vibrancy and neatness. What can be expected for Seremban Central as the business and administrative capital of Negeri Sembilan is the spillover effects of upcoming neighbouring townships such as Seremban 2 and Bandar Sri Sendayan. These fastgrowing townships, along with the HSR operations, will give Seremban new concepts, designs, products and facades. It will be interesting to watch Seremban Sentral’s future.

CONSUMER AWARENESS | Top 5 Smart Renovation Tips

Top 5 Smart Renovation Tips

Whether you’re an investor or a homebuyer, follow these steps to make the most of your renovation.

Adrian Wee, Property Entrepreneur & Founder of Interior Design King combines his experience in both investing and interior design when he decides to spend money on a home. “Good investors know that a home is a product, while homebuyers act more on emotion. Either way, when renovating, it is best to look at it from a practical point of view.”

Adrian is of the opinion that to avoid negative cash flow, it is best to allocate a limit of 5-10% of the property value for renovation. “You do not want to overcapitalise. I know a lot of investors and homebuyers who spend a lot on renovation and later are not able to afford to live in their own home!” Along with that advice, Adrian also pointed out these five tips to adhere to when approaching renovation.

PLASTERED CEILINGS & CAMOUFLAGED BEAMS The best option for ceilings would be plaster ceilings, especially those with light-through features. Indirect lighting lends a luxurious sense to a space. Ensure that ceilings are high as lowering your home will lower its value, while a good height gives it the illusion of space.

LIGHTING Opt for light fixtures that hang as they offer a higher perceived value. If you have small square room, use one pendant light instead of four small lights. If you like, standing lamps and table lamps are also good choices for increased value.

WALLPAPER It is a common misconception that wallpaper is a substitute for paint. A wise choice would be to go for wallpaper instead of a wall hanging or painting.

CURTAINS With curtains, many make the mistake of following only the window height. It is best to follow the floor height and get full-length curtains as it is more glamorous. Blinds are also a great option and come in various designs such as roman, roller and wooden blinds.

FLOORING Carpets are an investment. If you have a room without a carpet, your furniture will appear as if it is ‘floating’. If you are an investor, spend some money on ‘investment items’ such as carpets, vases and flowers. When you are showing your house for selling purposes, decorate it with these items. Once your house is sold, take those items back.

COLOUR SCHEME Always stick to neutral, earthy colours. If you like pink, do not paint the walls pink. Buy vases or throw pillows in pink to satisfy your urges instead.

You could see people walking around in the neighbourhood at night, knowing that they were safe.” Shamir’s last few tips to finding a good house apply to both high-rise and landed properties:

It came as no surprise that in iProperty.com’s Asian Sentiment Survey (H2) 2014, security took the third spot as one of the top factors homebuyers consider prior to a purchase. When it comes to investing in a new home, good security provides peace of mind. iProperty.com Malaysia sat down with practical self-defence specialist Shamir Rajadurai to talk about what homebuyers can do to increase the level of security in their homes. The cofounder of Kickout: Breakaway, one of the most talked about self-defence programmes in Malaysia, Shamir shared some easy tips to practice before you invest in a home. TAKE A GOOD LOOK AROUND

• Make sure there are not too many abandoned units • Ensure that your porch or entrance is well lit so you can notice shadows • If you have a back door, invest in barb wire fencing • Invest in a good, solid padlock

With these tips, homebuyers can take the first step towards creating a safer home for themselves. You should not have to live in fear. Change mindsets and strengthen your neighbourhood. Shamir is a practical self-defence specialist. For more information, please visit www.kickout.com.my or email shamir@kickout.com.my.

• If you find a property that you are interested in buying, the first thing you should do is to take a drive around the neighbourhood. You should in particular take a drive as well to see if you are comfortable or not with the area. Always go with your instinct or gut feeling on this. • Among the things that Shamir noted to look out for include street lighting, the width of sidewalks and the public parking areas. • Once you have ticked off those boxes, take a look at the recreational areas. Take note of the amount of entry and exit points into the neighbourhood as well as the traffic in the area’s playground or park. Count the back alleys and make sure that like the streets, they too are well-lit. KNOW YOUR NEIGHBOURS • When you first move into an estate, gauge the efficiency of its residents’ association. “If the community lifestyle in the area is strong, that is a good sign. You are not living in just a house – you are part of an entire neighbourhood.” • Shamir added, “In Section 14, where I live, crimes were abundant at one period of time.

Bandar Sri Sendayan by Matrix Concepts Holdings Berhad

SPECIAL FOCUS | Malacca and Negeri Sembilan: New Property Frontrunners

MALACCA AND NEGERI SEMBILAN: NEW PROPERTY FRONTRUNNERS

Strategically sandwiched between the development hubs of Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Johor, Negeri Sembilan and Malacca have emerged as the latest property hotspots. Rising from the shadow of Kuala Lumpur and the property explosion in Iskandar Malaysia, both Negeri Sembilan and Malacca are making their mark as lucrative property investment markets in the country’s Southern Corridor. Negeri Sembilan, once known for its quiet and laidback lifestyle, is now cashing in on its proximity to the nation’s capital by attracting KLites looking for welldesigned homes at half of the capital city’s prices. On the other hand, Malacca is capitalising on its significance as a historical state by developing newer and bigger attractions which are set to take its tourism industry to the next level. NEGERI SEMBILAN’S RISING STARS Seremban, Negeri Sembilan’s capital has traditionally led the state’s development from its early days as the southern mining centre to its steady growth as an established town. This quiet township was home to generations of old families and a select number of KLites who chose to retire here. However, the last decade has seen this sleepy place’s entire landscape transform as the scarcity of land in Kuala Lumpur has seen droves of buyers investing in Seremban instead. The timely opening of Seremban 2,

50 |

a planned township located roughly 60km away from the country’s federal capital and the state government’s moving of several government offices, including the courts, administrative offices, district police and fire and rescue services department to the new township served to accelerate Negeri Sembilan’s growth. The strong demand exhibited by Seremban 2 as well as the inclusion of Seremban as part of the Greater Klang Valley conurbation has seen the rise of a number of large-scale projects in the state. This includes the new townships of Seremban 2 and Bandar Sri Sendayan as well as the Seremban 3 and Forest Heights residential areas. Commercial developments are thriving as well as indicated by the high occupancy at newly opened industrial areas such as such as Sendayan Tech Valley and Bandar Enstek which boasts names such as CocaCola, Kellogg’s, Hino Motors and SKF. Plans to launch the 8,000ha Malaysia Vision Valley project which will encompass the Seremban-Nilai-Port Dickson area and consist of townships, industrial zones and educational hubs are also underway. Port Dickson, once the state’s famed beach getaway, has also in recent years experienced a comeback with

cleaner beaches and newer resorts. Additionally, a water theme park comprising the state’s largest splash park, serviced suites and a hotel with convention facilities is set to open soon and is expected to give Negeri Sembilan’s domestic tourism industry a much needed boost. THE RESURGENCE OF MALACCA Although Malacca has over the years been able to sustain interest amongst investors with smaller developments to support its tourism industry, it has never quite regained its glory as the ‘Venice of the East’. In order to remedy that, the state government as well as several private investors who recognise the potential of the UNESCO heritage site have recently unveiled mega-development projects which are designed to transform Malacca into a global tourist destination.

concerted effort has also earned Malacca the reputation of being the most progressive state in Malaysia. The initiative has managed to attract huge investments from giant international conglomerates such as the Honda assembling plant, CTRM Aero Composites which supplies parts for Boeing aircrafts, Infineon Technologies, Creative Technologies Ornasteel, National Semiconductor and Matsushita. A BRIGHT OUTLOOK The rise to prominence of Negeri Sembilan and Malacca is well aligned with the federal government’s agenda to transform Malaysia into a high-income nation by 2020. The role they play as strategic locations within the southern corridor will create greater opportunities for investors seeking affordable options outside Greater Klang Valley and Iskandar Malaysia.

Projects which are positioned to raise the state’s profile include the recently announced RM40-billion Melaka Gateway project which consists of 12 precincts including residential, commercial, cultural, entertainment and marina terminals. It will be the largest of its kind in Asia and is designed to tap into the growing number of cruise ships plying the route which currently do not stop at Malacca due to the lack of facilities. Also in the pipeline is a plan by the federal government to build a world-class port in Malacca with Tanjung Bruas in Melaka Tengah and Kuala Linggi in Alor Gajah identified as possible sites for the project. The state government through the Invest Malacca initiative which focuses on promoting business within its borders has been successful in developing the state’s positive economic growth since 2007.

BORDERLESS LIVING

IJM Land is unleashing unlimited possibilities to create cutting-edge living concepts in the form of Saujana Duta in Seremban 2.

Once a quiet sleepy town, Seremban now welcomes the rapidly growing precinct of Seremban 2. A sequel to the older Seremban township, it is a satellite township located approximately 4 kilometres from the old Seremban town. Now a thriving business and residential oasis, it boasts major shopping centres, a district administrative complex as well as business, education and residential hubs. A welcome relief from the hustle and bustle of Kuala Lumpur city, the township is an ideal option for those looking for a serene community with city-like conveniences and amenities. SEREMBAN 2’S GROWTH CURVE A flagship development by IJM Land Berhad, Seremban 2 has emerged as one of the most progressive and successful developments in Negeri Sembilan with a population size of 62,500. Set to serve as the gateway to Greater Klang Valley under the government’s National Structure Plan, it is very much part of the federal government’s massive development efforts in suburban areas surrounding Greater Kuala Lumpur.

To date, Seremban 2 has experienced tremendous growth with the help of residential, commercial and industrial properties, some of which include exceptional developments such as Sri Carcosa, Garden City Homes, Uptown Avenue, One Avenue and Green Technology Park among others. S2 HEIGHTS @ SEREMBAN 2 Seremban 2 is home to S2 Heights, a robust residential and commercial enclave spread across 1,500 acres of elevated land.

Perched on high ground with undulating terrain, S2 Heights presents modern and elegant home designs comprising exclusive guarded bungalows, semi-detached homes and terrace houses. One of its distinct characteristics is its 6.6acre linear park which features paved paths and walkways lined with rich foliage and lush greenery that link the various cluster homes in S2 Heights to the scenic park. The

low-density development has also adopted elements from the concept of a safe city, with wide roads being one of the most notable features. SAUJANA DUTA @ S2 HEIGHTS, SEREMBAN 2 Saujana Duta is an upcoming residential enclave in S2 Heights comprising bungalows spread across 38 acres of freehold land and has a gross development value of RM214 million. The low-density guarded enclave offer 76 units luxury bungalows available in 6 distinguished designs with built-up sizes measuring from 6,278 sq ft to 13,163 sq ft. The development promises elegant homes with green features, state-of-the-art facilities as well as premium fittings and finishing which include smart home systems, rainwater harvesting systems and solar water heating systems. Additionally, the units offer spacious layout designs with a distinct contemporary touch complemented by panoramic vistas of the adjacent hill-park. The clever use of glass panels, unobstructed layouts and architectural finesse render each home with ample natural sunlight, excellent ventilation and a bright and airy interior. Aside from the breath-taking vistas, one can also sit back and relax at the Hilltop Recreational Villa which features an infinity pool, playground, gymnasium and viewing deck. Anticipating the needs of the elite community, the development promises a comprehensive security system which includes perimeter fencing, CCTV surveillance and round the clock patrolling.

Mydin Mall and AEON Shopping Centre are just a stone’s throw away while Columbia Asia Medical Centre and Klinik Kesihatan Seremban 2 are located several minutes away from the development. Seremban 2’s commercial hub also offers a good selection of F&B outlets, several financial institutions, clinics, fast food chains, boutiques and other business activities. Residents will be please to know that there are three budget hotels, a private wellness centre, a fast food drive-through outlet and the first purpose-built kindergarten in the pipeline. Sports enthusiasts will find Seremban 2’s 34-acre sports complex a delightful amenity with its Olympic-sized swimming pool, hockey stadium as well as squash and badminton courts. The development is also set to welcome a brand new clubhouse equipped with a fascinating range of facilities such as a swimming pool, multipurpose hall, basketball court, gymnasium and cafe.

The newly-completed club is expected to open its doors by the end of 2014. A COMMUNITY-ORIENTED LIFESTYLE Seremban 2 is a vibrant township which encourages and builds strong communities through its excellent town-planning concept of bringing people together via common facilities and all year-round activities. The township hosts annual carnival, safety campaigns, festive celebrations, health screening drives and other events organised by the developer in collaboration with the local municipality. Additionally, the development features a neat and well-organised environment with hidden underground utilities, covered drains, wide internal roads with walkways and guardhouses at each residential parcel. As part of IJM Land’s continuous improvement efforts, the Group will soon unveil S2 Heights’ Phase 3, a lowdensity development on elevated land with a superior town-planning concept. It will feature robust connectivity

The upcoming phase will be further enhanced with 1.5m-wide walkways along internal road systems and 2.4m-wide walkways-cum-bicycle tracks to promote healthy and well-balanced living. In addition to that, the development is set to deliver beautifully-landscaped lakes, open parks and lush greenery in addition to the two existing large recreational parks, namely the 30-acre Hill Park and 15-acre City Park. To address concerns on crime prevention, S2 Heights’ design encompasses the concept of “crime prevention through environmental design”. Measures undertaken include brightly lit streets, separate pedestrian walkways and motorised lanes, well-planned exits and entries into residential enclaves, high-speed broadband connectivity and other green features. A WELL-CONNECTED SUBURB Travelling is a breeze where Seremban 2 is concerned due to its close proximity to major access roads and highways such as the North-South Highway (PLUS), Seremban-Port Dickson Highway, Kajang-Seremban Expressway (LEKAS), the toll-free roads to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport as well as the upcoming 4-lane dual-carriage way between Nilai and Seremban. The government’s proposal to implement the High Speed Rail link to Singapore is also expected to pass through Seremban 2. At present, the development is served by the KTM train and bus service which provides

a convenient commuting option to Kuala Lumpur’s city centre. IJM LAND BERHAD Saujana Duta is another signature development by IJM Land Berhad, one of Malaysia’s leading property developers.

TOP 5 WATERFRONT CITIES OF THE WORLD

In celebration of Malacca’s status as Malaysia’s waterfront city, iProperty.com spins the globe to shine the spotlight on some of the most impressive waterfront cities around the world. - BY ONG XIN YING

Venice, Italy

The presence of water has been a geographical plus point for the formation of human civilisation especially considering the earliest ones were located near major rivers. While a majority of the world’s finest cities today are land-locked, there are still cities such as Malacca which not only allow their waterways to define them but also capitalise on their location with their scenic views, business opportunities and rich histories. Consider packing a bag or two and scheduling a holiday as iProperty.com looks at five of the best waterfront cities across the globe. VENICE, ITALY With its shimmering canals, history-rich atmosphere and dazzling architecture, there is no doubt that the city of Venice occupies a spot on every current and future list of top waterfront cities. A World Heritage Site, the capital city of Italy’s Veneto region is decked with architectural and engineering marvels which are only matched by the sheer amount of art, music, fashion and food that has continued to pour out of its walls and alleys for centuries. The art and architecture which Venice boasts have helped it establish itself as one of the world’s most important tourist destinations. Widely regarded as one

60 |

of the most beautiful cities in the world, it also plays host to several international conferences and festivals such as the Venice Film Festival and Venice Biennale. Some of its most frequented districts, called ‘Sestieri’, are Castello, Cannaregio, Dorsoduro, Santa Croce, San Marco and San Polo as these are where most of the city’s primary monuments and tourist attractions are located. AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS The capital city of the Kingdom of the Netherlands is another city with canals, which incidentally are also on the UNESCO World Heritage List along with the Defence Line of Amsterdam, as part of its romantic charm. Serving as both its country’s cultural and commercial capital, the city attracts both tourists and businesses alike; while pleasure-seekers visit in order to take in the sights and sounds, international corporations set down roots in order to take advantage of its status as one of Europe’s top financial centres. Like many other classic European cities, Amsterdam’s main attraction to those who visit it for pleasure is its rich history which in its case comes in the form of its many world-famous museums and architectural wonders. Nicknamed ‘the Venice of the North’ due

to its division into approximately 90 islands which are linked by over 1,200 bridges, the city’s other major tourist attraction is its vibrant nightlife which comprises both old-fashioned and modern bars as well as discotheques which are more commonly known today as nightclubs. SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA Australia’s most populous city Sydney has its worldclass beaches and breath-taking natural beauty to thank for most of its international tourist traffic, but that is not all there is to its charm. The state capital of New South Wales counts cultural diversity as one of its selling points to the extent that it is referred to as Australia’s most multicultural city and one of the world’s most multicultural cities, a quality which is clearly exhibited by the variety of restaurants which serve the mouthwatering cuisines of each and every culture present. While water-related activities are an obvious favourite experience to partake in off the city’s beaches and within its harbour, Sydney also has numerous attractions on shore which contribute to its booming tourism industry. In addition to its many beautiful parks and botanic gardens, the city is home to many heritage listed

Famous for its stunning 23 beaches and carnival celebrations, the city has the honour of having part of it recognised as a World Heritage Site in the Cultural Landscape category under the name ‘Rio de Janeiro: Carioca Landscapes between the Mountain and the Sea’. One of Brazil’s main cultural hubs, Rio de Janeiro has numerous architectural marvels which date from the 16th to 19th centuries and showcase Portuguese, French and English designs mingling with world-renowned 20th century creations. Another point of attraction is of course the annual Carnaval’s celebrations and parades which take place in almost every corner of the city. All this has contributed to its status as one of the most visited cities in the Southern Hemisphere, a fact which is to be further enforced as it has been chosen to host the 2016 Summer Olympics and 2016 Summer Paralympics. CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA The Western Cape’s provincial capital and primate city that is Cape Town counts its harbour, simply called the Port of Cape Town, as one of its marks of fame.

LET’S TALK | The Past Presents the Future

The Past Presents the Future

Known for its rich cultural heritage, Malacca’s transformation plans hope to put a modern spin on its history. - BY BRANAVAN ARULJOTHI

Datuk Anthony Adam Cho JP, branch chairman of the Real Estate& Housing Developers’ Association Malaysia (REHDA) Malacca, speaks to iProperty.com Malaysia about Malacca’s mega face lift and how REHDA plans to overcome its potential obstacles. Malacca is one of the few states in the country that has a Heritage certification by UNESCO. How does this work in favour of the property industry? Malacca’s property market has definitely benefitted from the UNESCO certification. Since its recognition in 2008, the state has boasted a tourist count of over 14 million visitors per annum and the number is still growing. With the growth of the tourism industry, we foresee many foreigners and non-residents retiring here and calling Malacca their second home. Due to this, the demand for serviced apartments, shops and hotels have enjoyed healthy growth. Over the last decade, have residential real estate prices seen a spike as much as its neighbours in Kuala Lumpur, Johor and Penang? While Malacca’s residential properties have seen an increase in selling price, the rate for properties here are still relatively moderate if compared to those three places. A single-storey landed property can still be found here for about RM200,000. It is, however, a challenge for developers to continue maintaining this price bracket. Land prices have shot up by quite a few

folds due to the greater demand for private houses. This demand is in tandem with the spike in income level among the state’s residents. A lot of developmental land has been used for hotels, shopping malls, shop lots and serviced apartments. Along with wages, the prices of raw materials have also seen an increase. The high compliance cost imposed by the government has also contributed to the price increase. For example, the adoption of 2020’s Malacca Green Technology City (Melaka Bandar Teknologi Hijau) has reduced the accepted density which refers to the number of units

that can be built on an acre of land. In particular, this has taken a toll on the terraced house market. While we support green technology, the state government should be encouraged to engage with the private sector on ways to enable a win-win situation for all parties. Melaka Gateway is quite possibly the biggest project to take place in Malacca in recent history. What are some of REHDA’s concerns in regards to this project? Under the capable leadership of the state’s chief minister, YAB Datuk Seri Ir Idris Haji Haron, we envisage the tourism industry to grow and for Malacca to be a prime destination for retirees and foreigners. One concern REHDA has is the challenge of maintaining traffic flow and potential overcrowding. We are also concerned about some of the policies announced recently by the state government such as the increase in approval notice fee on properties acquired by foreigners. The new minimum of RM20,000 per lot may be detrimental to the promotion of property ownership. In places such as Johor, Penang and Klang Valley, foreign purchases can be considered speculative in nature but in Malacca, most foreigners buy to stay. Another concern is the Lands & Mines (PTG) requirement of only giving approval to foreigners after the issuing of the strata title. This will hamper foreign investor relations as without PTG approval, lawyers cannot complete the execution of the Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA). This will result in a problem with the collection of progressive payment

under the “Sell-then-Build” (STB) system, and if bank loans are involved the bank will not release progressive payments without approval from the state government. While projects targeted at foreigners may run the risk of abandonment, what about those which were pre-planned and have already started construction? Will the new policy affect them? Malacca’s architecture is one of its biggest attractions. With that in mind, what is your opinion on the RM50100 million redevelopment plans for the areas along Jalan Hang Tuah? The redevelopment plan is especially good given the focus on tourism and related activities located primarily along the beautiful landscapes surrounding the Malacca River. I personally welcome the programme and hope that the state government will pay close attention to the masterplan before the implementation of the project. One of Melaka Gateway’s biggest plans is to re-establish Malacca as a primary trading port city. Do you think Malacca has what it takes to join the ranks of the world’s top waterfront cities? In the 16th century, Malacca’s strategic location along the peninsula of Malaysia, facing the Malacca Straits, made it the world’s greatest trading empire of the time. The Straits of Malacca remains one of the world’s most important shipping lanes as it is the main shipping channel between the Indian and Pacific Oceans, linking major Asian countries such as India, China, Japan and South Korea. There is no doubt that Malacca has the strength to join the list of the world’s top port and waterfront cities.

LETâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S TALK | Moving Malacca Forward

Moving Malacca Forward

With huge changes in store such as a 249-hectare mega development project, Malacca is set to re-establish itself in a big way. - BY BRANAVAN ARULJOTHI

With its UNESCO certification, the progress of the Melaka Gateway project and its overall trajectory, Malacca seems to be shedding its past reputation to become more than just a former trading port. Set to re-establish itself on all fronts, could the state put Malaysia on the map as a country with a world-class waterfront city? iProperty.com Malaysia sat down with Chief Minister of Malacca YAB Datuk Seri Ir Idris Haji Haron to talk about how the state government is joining hands with its comrades to put Malacca back in the game as a top contender. Malacca has a mega development plan already in motion in the form of the Melaka Gateway. Can you tell us a little bit about this project? The RM40 billion marina gateway will be a timely landmark development for the state as Malacca currently lacks the facilities to cater to cruise ships and other marine vessels despite getting two dozen cruise ship calls annually. Spread across a 249-hectare manmade island, Melaka Gateway is also poised to be the largest private marina bay in Southeast Asia when it is completed in 2025. The development is projected to attract an additional 2.5 million tourists over the next 12 years. The first phase of the project will be built on the existing Pulau Melaka and will consist of the new version of the Malaysia Eye, hotels, resorts, a marina terminal, a heritage promenade and fashion arena.

Melaka Gateway offers 12 development precincts which include the Melaka International Cruise Terminal (MICT), an entertainment hub, high-rise condominiums, marina villas with private berths, a health and wellness precinct and The Beacon which is a 288-metre building that houses a seven-star hotel and luxury apartments, all in a 15km package of premier waterfront property. The project will also see the creation of three manmade islands off the coast of Bandar Hilir, the tourist hub of Melaka World Heritage City. Once completed, they will be Southeast Asiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest cluster of manmade islands. What does Malacca have to do to become a prime player in the property sector in the vein of Klang Valley, Penang and most recently Iskandar Malaysia? We believe in sustainable property development in terms of building structures using natural resources and processes which are environmentally responsible. Additionally, we shall continue to develop Malacca to be a world-class city with unique mega-structures. Aside from Melaka Gateway, we currently have the 42-storey The Shore project which has one of the largest in-house aquariums as well as the row of suites along the coastal road of Malacca and other skyscrapers. The Malacca government has also recently implemented a swapping quota policy to enable developers to convert Bumiputera quota housing units under strict conditions so that they can sell unsold units to non-Bumiputera buyers. This move is intended to encourage developers

to develop new projects in the state to fulfil the demand for new properties. YAB Datuk Seri Ir Idris Haji Haron, Chief Minister of Malacca

Malacca’s gaining of a world heritage label in 2008 was advantageous and brought significant changes to its economic and state development. This led to an increase in tourist arrivals in the state, resulting in greater business opportunities and a boost to the local property market. Malacca is one of the few states which take pride in preserving its heritage. What state government initiatives have been taken to accomplish this? Among some of the initiatives which have been taken include:

state and the sense of pride in calling Malacca home. Additionally, the state government is moving to turn Malacca into a green and sustainable state with ecotourism attractions where nature meets development in a win-win situation.

• a commitment to ensure the continuous protection and promotion of our heritage projects • the formulation of the Malacca State enactment for the protection of Malacca’s cultural heritage • the establishment of a Malacca State conservation committee to manage the heritage • the setting up of the Malacca World Heritage Office to monitor the state of conservation in relevant areas • the creation of a Malacca conservation fund to provide financial assistance for heritage protection projects by the government, NGOs as well as private bodies • the formation of the Malacca Museums Corporation as the caretaker for the state’s historical artefacts, historical sites and to promote Malacca’s intangible cultural heritage • the formulation of a conservation management plan as a statutory document on the management of heritage areas What are some of your personal goals for the remainder of your tenure as the current Chief Minister of Malacca? “Don’t Mess with Malacca” was introduced by the state government a few months ago as a catchphrase in its effort to change the mind-set of the people and to remind them that keeping the state clean is a shared responsibility. The introduction of the slogan is in line with my vision of seeing Malacca not only achieve physical and infrastructural development but also equipping the people with the right civic mind-set of a developed

POINTS OF INTEREST | Avoiding the Risk of Abandonment

Avoiding the Risk of Abandonment Can you get anything more out of an abandoned project than just a mea culpa? - BY BRANAVAN ARULJOTHI

It does not need to be said that for many, a real estate investment is a lifetime purchase that usually entails expenditure of lifetime proportions. Savings are drained, income is strained and worry is prevalent, even long after an owner physically claims a property as his own. Whether you’re a veteran flipper or investor, or maybe a property neophyte, there are many concerns that are raised prior to purchasing a piece of real estate. One issue that often keeps investors up at night is the possibility of their investment becoming abandoned. Developers abandoning projects before its completion is far from unheard of, and many innocent investors fall victim to this sometimes inevitable conundrum. WHY DO PROJECTS GET ABANDONED? Christopher Chan, associate director of Hartamas Real Estate (Malaysia) explains that the reasons for abandonment can be classified into multiple categories. Among the possible reasons he listed include: ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥

Financial problems faced by the developer Poor marketing and sales strategies Unfavourable government policies Lack of enforcement, control and monitoring by the government ¥ Unfavourable economic conditions ¥ Mismanagement, including disputes between shareholders and embezzlement of funds

68 |

“It is interesting to note that the Ministry of Housing and Local Government’s findings have shown that 70% of the projects abandoned were due to financial problems of developers. Another 14% arose from poor marketing and sales strategies while 16% failed over problems arising from squatter resettlement, poor company management and disputes between developers and contractors or with landowners,” he added. DID YOU KNOW? The most notable penalty for errant developers came in the form of the 2012 amendment to the Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Act 1966. The amendment, which only applies to new housing projects, states that companies who abandon their housing projects will be jailed up to 3 years under Section 18A and fined not less than RM250, 000 but not more than RM500, 000. Build-then- Sell Another pertinent concept is the “Build-then-Sell” (BTS 10:90) idea which Crowe Horwath LLP explains that: “This concept will insulate buyers who are not business proprietors from the business risks of developers and their financiers. It will also compel developers to build quality homes that commensurate with the prices charged and not resort to unethical or dishonest cost cutting measures.”

The advisory company also added that a housing developer has been redefined to include a person or body appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be the provisional liquidators or liquidators for the housing development company in liquidation. This enables the legal obligations of a wound-up developer to be fulfilled by the liquidators. THE LOTUSES OF PROPERTY While a scenario of this sort can’t be helped but be frowned upon, there are instances in which light was shed for the owners in the dark. Main Place, a project in USJ, Selangor that was abandoned in 1999 was undertaken by Sumbangan Lagenda (a 55% subsidiary of Bina Puri Holdings Bhd). In media reports, it was stated that over 95% of the original buyers of the property decided to take a leap of faith in the revival of this abandoned project. Now a 4.3-acre mixed development project, it is seeing great success as a mixed-use property with many big brands setting up shop in its retail portions. It also consists of 1,211 apartment units in Subang Jaya’s USJ 21.

MAKE A LIST The easiest way to avoid the possibility of your investment being left to collect dust is to do your due diligence as a buyer. Make a list of qualities and requirements your developer/development needs to meet before your purchase. The most basic list you should make, according to Chan, will include these pre-requisites: ¥ To check the financial records of the developer from annual reports from Bursa Malaysia (for public listed companies) and the Companies Commission of Malaysia (for private limited companies) to assess if a company has a healthy and strong financial position. ¥ To check with relevant authorities, such as the Ministry of Housing, to see if there are any complaints lodged against the developer. ¥ To check the past and current projects undertaken by the developer. There is nothing better than seeing these developments yourself. ¥ To study the developer and see how they have treated their past and existing clients as well as whether they obey the governing authorities. If the company treats its clients fairly such as by paying them equitable compensation for shortcomings in the construction of the property and abides by the authorities’ directives and rulings by obeying a stop-work order due certain conditions, they can be considered a good and responsible developer.

GAVEL GAZING | Housing Tribunal: Resolving Disputes With Developers

Housing Tribunal: Resolving Disputes With Developers This article explains why house buyers should always seek to resolve the dispute with housing developers through the housing tribunal.

Vacant possession of house delivered. But delivery was late. House buyer requested but the developer refused to compensate for late delivery. What can the house buyer do? Must the house buyer appoint a lawyer to start a legal action in the courts? Not necessarily. If the sum claimed is less than RM50,000, the house buyer should seriously consider filing a claim with the Tribunal for Homebuyersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Claim in Peninsular Malaysia. Established since 2003, the housing tribunal has handled more than 30,000 cases. Unlike courts, the house buyer is to act in person, without a lawyer in a claim before the housing tribunal. Similarly the developer acts by its corporate representative, and not a lawyer. Only in exceptional circumstances such as when complex legal issues are involved, or the claimant is unable to act in person and must engage a lawyer, would the lawyer be allowed to appear before a housing tribunal. A standard form is ready for details such as sum claimed and brief details of claim, to be filled in and lodged with the housing tribunal. Only the SPA and relevant documents have to be enclosed, such as certificate of completion, documents showing the defects and eventual cost of repair. No strict procedural rules as in the courts. A nominal fee of RM10 is charged for lodgement. The disputes covered by the housing tribunal must arise from the SPA entered into with the developer. A claim for late delivery arises from the SPA. Non-compliance with specifications listed in the SPA would be another dispute that arises from the SPA. Defects occurring within the defects liability period would also be covered. Claims must be lodged within 12 months from the delivery date for late delivery, or the expiry of the defects liability period. And if the dispute happens before delivery, and the house buyer chooses not to proceed with the SPA before delivery, then 12 months from such a decision not to proceed.

Usually, within a month from lodgement, the housing tribunal would call both developer and house buyer for hearing. A decision would usually be made on this hearing date. Occasionally, further hearing dates may be required if the documents are not in order or further investigations are required. In any event, the housing tribunal must make a decision within 60 days from the first hearing date.

70 |

At the hearing, the tribunal would hear both the house buyer and the developer. No written legal submission need to be filed. House buyer can make his case orally. And a decision could be made on the first hearing date. The tribunal would decide by making an award. This award could either be agreeing with the house buyer and allowing the claim in full, rejecting the claim, or allowing the claim only in part. This award has to be obeyed by the developer. If the developer refuses, not only can the house buyer force the developer to comply by way of court action, but the developer is liable to be fined and its directors, managers, officers involved imprisoned. The maximum fine is RM10,000 and imprisonment of 2 years, or both. Housing tribunal awards are final. No appeal can be made. But the award can be challenged on procedural and legal grounds by way of a court action known as judicial review. The grounds available to challenge are

few and far in between. In most cases, once the housing tribunal has decided, the award would not be easily overturned by way of judicial review. A number of developers have tried to challenge awards made by the housing tribunal on a number of technical and procedural grounds. Most have not been successful unless the housing tribunal made a clear mistake such as granting late delivery compensation when the claim is for defects during liability period. Such manifest errors are exceptional and unusual. An issue that arises in respect of housing tribunal awards would be compliance by the developer. In the period of 2009 to 2013, a total of 2,928 investigations concerning refusal to comply with housing tribunal awards have been initiated. As at March 2014, a total of 327 developers and 1068 directors and officers, have been blacklisted for refusal to comply.

But that does not mean that housing tribunal is less effective than courts. It is more of a reflection on the general low level of compliance by a number of developers existing across the board. A recalcitrant developer would have equally refused to comply with a court order. And criminal sanction that result from noncompliance with a housing tribunal award would serve to benefit future house buyers as it would lead to the recalcitrant developer being blacklisted. As a rule of thumb, house buyers should always seek to resolve the dispute with the housing developer through the housing tribunal, unless the dispute is outside the scope of the housing tribunal. The housing tribunal process results in a swift decision and is cost-effective. With no lawyer engaged, no legal fee incurred. The lodging of a claim itself may result in a compromise by the developer. In introducing the housing tribunal in 2001, the Parliament emphasised the need to minimise the expense that house buyers have to face in order to claim remedies from developers. House buyers should take advantage.

INVESTMENT TIPS | Make The Most of Your Kitchen

Make The Most of Your Kitchen Whether big or small, in a condo or house, the space in your kitchen will always have its limits but here are some ways to fully utilize it with clever design solutions.

“Drop It Like It’s Hot” In many modern constructions, a dropped ceiling is typically included for aesthetic and acoustic reasons. Remove a dropped ceiling to create a loftier and added floor-to-ceiling wall height. It adds volume to any room, and yes, more opportunity for storage!

Regardless of the size of your kitchen, smart design solutions can utilize space you didn’t even know existed. From storage solutions to aesthetic details, we present you with tricks of the trade that will help you make the most of your kitchen.

“Up, Up and Away” Be ‘up to your ceiling in cabinets’ by extending them all the way up that tall wall with custom built-ins to create more storage space. Our suggestion would be to store less-used items up top, but do know that you can reach them with that stepladder you stored in the toe kick drawer down below.

“Let’s Kick It” Where once there was mere toe stubbing, let there be toe kick drawers! Practical in both big and small kitchens, you may store useful items such as a foldable stepladder in these slim but practical drawers (useful for the next couple of storage solutions).

“You Spin My Head Right Round, Right Round” More often than not, if a cabinet is deep, it makes it hard to reach any items tucked away in the back. Add rotating and/or sliding shelves to your new top-to-toe cabinets for ease of reach. Cabinet organizers are a great way to create more storage in an orderly manner.

74 |

(everybody’s kitchen absolutely needs spices) would organize and utilize space that would have otherwise been wasted. “Look Ma, No Hand(le)s!” Forget the days your hip knocked into the drawer handles, the days of shimmying around aforementioned handles, and the days of lost hours spent cleaning them. Ain’t nobody got time for that! Push-to-open drawers and cabinets are the winners here, where ease of use is the name of the game. “Nobody Puts Baby in a Corner” But you can put drawers in a corner! Remnants of space can be found in the most unlikely places, and an alternative to rotating shelves for those hard-to-reach ones are corner drawers. They make the most of those remnants more efficiently (by at least half!) and integrate spectacularly with your kitchen.

“Dive In At The Deep End” Nothing feels roomier than a deep sink, especially when you have limited space. By adding a deep sink to your kitchen, you can comfortably scrub and rinse that huge pasta pot, reduce the possibility of splashing, and have the option to hide a couple of dirty dishes in that Narnia of a sink.

“They See Me Rollin’” Ever wished you had more space to chop your veggies whilst juggling a multitude of other cooking tasks? A rolling cabinet or cart may be just the thing to create that much-needed extra workspace you’ve been craving for. And all you’d need to do is roll it out from under the counter!

“Spring Cleaning” As with the rest of the home, an obvious solution to any residing clutter would be to spring clean, and this goes for kitchens too! Give away or discard any unused or broken appliances, upgrade from a couple of singlefunction appliances to one multi-purpose appliance, and declutter those tabletops!

“Hang In There” Walls and cabinet doors alike have unutilized hanging space, which goes unnoticed on many an occasion. Wall mounted storage solutions such as a hanging spice rack

The kitchen is a versatile room though space may seem limited, but Space can easily be made if you take the time to create it. With that, we hope you enjoy your newly discovered kitchen!

Painting a New Picture Is a fresh coat of paint an investment worth looking into?

Could there be more than meets the eye when it comes to slapping your home with a new paintjob? Besides the fact that fresh colours lift any living space, there may be a dollars and cents incentive when you invest in good paint. Yaw Seng Heng, managing director of Nippon Paint Malaysia, took some time off his busy schedule to talk to iProperty.com Malaysia about the possible effects that a reliable coat of paint may have on the price and feel of your property. According to an online survey, majority of Malaysians feel that properties in Malaysia are expensive. This has somewhat becomes a challenge for the developers hence, as a paint company, how can you assist the developers, ensuring that the property value is sold at a reasonable price? Instead of using expensive materials to furnish the interior and exterior of a building, we can now offer a better alternative to the developers as well as provide a safer option using paint. With our belief that quality and total commitment to research and development are key to our success in paint innovation, paint can now offer the similar aesthetic design and texture as raw materials. As the paint leader in the industry, we believe that it is more cost effective, as well as easy maintenance in the long run, if one uses paint. For instance, we offer paints that are

“washable,” which means that the dirt can be cleaned off the surface easily. What’s most important is that paint can also protect the surfaces and ensure that it is longer lasting. An example that I would use is the usage of Nippon Paint Water Repellent Solution. It protects the bare cement and brick surfaces while reducing capillary absorption of water and water-borne materials, without blocking the pores. In fact, this is best used to protect the interior and exterior walls against mould growth, corrosion and peeling/ chalking. Many would agree that a new environment will uplift one’s mood. With that, what are some ways to improve the home’s value without breaking the bank? As mentioned above, paint is indeed a cheaper and more reasonable alternative to anything else and yet, it provides a new, inspiring look to a home. Some paints such as Nippon Momento Special Effect Paint can simply provide texture, and turn ordinary walls into exquisite works of art. Aside from providing an aesthetically-pleasing look and design, paint has become so “functional” to home owners. One does not need to buy a chalkboard for their children anymore because paint today can transform surfaces into chalkboard walls and metal-looking walls, as well as refreshing the air by absorbing formaldehyde. It should be noted that there is a wide range of colours for one to choose from, making paint a solution to all. Many people have been using Nippon Momento Special Effect Paint series in recent times. With that said, how did it get the name and what was the concept behind it? With more than 130 years of experience in the market, we want to take the brand to the next level. By investing 5% of our revenue in the R&D department, we continuously want everyone to rethink and recreate the possibilities of paint. Being a true paint expert that offers Total Coating Solutions to meet all needs, across all surfaces, we officially

introduced the Nippon Momento Special Effect Paint in 2012. The word “Momento” is derived from the word “moment,” which refers to the moments and memories we want our consumers to cherish with their loved ones, sharing the joy and the happiness together, in the presence of our Nippon Momento Special Effect Paint on walls, ceilings and other surfaces. How is it different from the other paint series? Nippon Momento Special Effect allows one to recreate intricate works of Italian craftsmanship in your home. With Nippon Momento Special Effect, consumers can now turn their dreams into reality by recreating the textures of stone, marble and velvet without actually using these materials. With every stroke that you apply, you will get a special texture, transforming ordinary walls into enchanting masterpieces. Nippon Momento Special Effect is formulated with low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) and contains no lead, mercury, chrome or heavy metal. Under Nippon Momento Special Effect, there are the Textured Paint series and Enhancer series. The Textured Paint series comes in a selection of topcoat finishes: • Momento Elegant: Introduces a stylistic impression to walls with a luxurious finish. • Momento Sparkle (Gold, Silver or Pearl): Adds a dash of glitz to walls with a finish that sparkles like a gem. Nippon Momento Enhancer series, on the other hand, offers Frost and Cloud, which expands the consumer’s options and stretches beyond colour, allowing an addition of texture effects to their existing painted walls. Nippon Momento Special Effect Paint is recommended for interior walls, ceilings, cement-based plaster, gypsumbased plaster, brickwork, hard and soft boards as well as cement fibreboard.

Unparalleled Sleeping Options There is no better way to have a well-rested slumber than to sleep on a Goodnite StatFree™ mattress.

STATFREE™ As we go about our everyday lives touching or brushing against objects and using electronic devices such as our smartphones, laptops and tablets, our bodies constantly pick up and accumulate electrons which results in a build-up of static electricity in our bodies. This causes feelings of anxiousness and discomfort without us realising the cause behind it. These excess electrons are not easily discharged as our bodies can withstand high voltages of up to 30,000 volts. If we were to carry our highly charged bodies to bed, our tense bodies would prevent us from relaxing and we would not be able to experience the deep sleep stages necessary for our health and wellbeing.

StatFree™ mattresses are made of a revolutionary mattress fabric which incorporates anti-static technology. This ticking is made by combining natural and synthetic fibres which contain ultra-fine carbon fibre threads designed to draw out any static electricity accumulated on the body and release it into the air at low voltages. These anti-static mattresses help the body to discharge static electricity at voltages as low as 4,000 volts. This means that the tension literally drains out of your body while you lie in bed so your body relaxes and gets the rest it needs. Without the static, you will sleep better and wake up fresher as a result. The benefits of using a StatFree™ mattress include:

That is not to say that sleeping at ease and in complete comfort is impossible. Goodnite has introduced a new series of mattresses called StatFree™ which are woven with carbon threads that discharge electrons and eliminate built-up static electricity in the body effectively.

Responsibility and Accountability: The Winning Recipe for Management Committees - BY ROBERT TAN

Recently, the former American congressman, Jesse Jackson Jr, pleaded guilty to misusing US$750,000 (RM2.3 million) in campaign funds. Prosecutors said Jackson used some of the siphoned funds to buy childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s furniture, fur caps and a US$43,350 goldplated Rolex watch. Jackson is the son of the well known civil rights leader, Jesse Jackson, People in public or civil service have a big responsibility. They have a big job scope to complete. Also, they are accountable and answerable for their actions. Responsibility and accountability are like two peas in a pod. They go hand in hand. But they are different. Below is a story about responsibility and accountability of management committees. EASY MONEY A developer owned several apartment units in the building. It rented out its unsold units. It collected parking fees for its car parks. However, it failed to pay the maintenance charges and sinking fund for its units. When the Joint Management Body (JMB) was formed, there was over RM1 million surplus in the management funds. Particularly, the audited accounts showed the developer had not paid the maintenance charges and sinking fund which amounted to about RM80,000.

The Joint Management Committee (JMC) asked the developer to handover the surplus money and to pay the outstanding management funds. The developer refused citing various excuses. The JMC sought for advice. It wrote officially to the developer asking for payment of the surplus moneys and outstanding management funds. After repeated demands from the JMC, the developer gave a lawyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s letter to the JMC. The letter had legal gibberish which confused the JMC. The JMC sought for advice again. The advice was to go to Court for redress. However, the JMB did not have enough funds to do this. Despite the lack of funds, the JMC moved on. It kept writing to the developer asking for payment of the surplus moneys and outstanding management funds. Also, the JMC undertook the responsibility of maintaining the building and common property. It spent wisely and carefully. It did the administrative work. It supervised the contractors. It held annual general meetings (AGM) with a small budget. However, a few parcel owners were unhappy. They wanted the JMC to spend more money for the building, common property and the AGMs.

90 |

The JMC has been in office for six years now. It undertook the responsibility of managing the building and common property. It accounted for its actions and was transparent in their accounting. Needless to say, at each AGM, the parcel owners have been voting for the JMC to hold office. LAW The Strata Management Act, 2013 (Act 757) (“SMA”) upholds the spirit of responsibility and accountability. Under the SMA, the developer and the management committee are to uphold this spirit. Sections 10 and 11 of the SMA provide that all moneys in the maintenance account and sinking fund managed by the developer shall: (1) not form part of the developer’s property; and (2) be held in trust for parcel owners Also, section 15 of the SMA provides that: (1) The developer shall, before the developer’s management period expires— (a) transfer all balances of moneys in the maintenance account and the sinking fund account, after payment of all the expenditure which have been properly charged to the accounts, to the Joint Management Body. Under the SMA, all moneys in the maintenance account and sinking fund managed by the developer are held on trust for the parcel owners. Also, the developer must transfer the surplus money in the management funds to the management body. The SMA also provides that the developer must pay maintenance charges and sinking fund notwithstanding that they are unsold units and unoccupied units. Ironically, these disgruntled owners were defaulters. They had failed to pay their management funds. They did this to protest against the JMC’s failure to recover the moneys from the developer.

Thus, the developer in the above story must transfer the surplus RM1million of maintenance funds to the JMB and pay maintenance funds for its unsold units.

The JMC kept focused to complete its task. It had a big responsibility.

On the JMC holding office for six years, the SMA provides strict rules.

The JMC managed the management funds with a tight fist. Expenditure was scrutinised. The audited accounts were transparent. It answered for its spending. It was accountable.

Section 2 (5) and (6) 2nd Schedule of the SMA provides: (5) There shall be a chairman, secretary and treasurer, all of whom shall be natural persons, to be elected by the management committee from among its members immediately after the conclusion of the general meeting but no chairman, secretary or treasurer shall hold office for more than two consecutive years.

Meanwhile, after much persuasion from HBA, the State Authority intervened. It demanded the developer to pay the JMB the management funds for its unsold units including the outstanding management funds of RM80,000. It also informed that the surplus RM1million of maintenance funds must be mandatorily handed over to the JMB. Starting with almost nothing in the JMB account, the JMC patiently collected the management funds from the parcel owners. After nearly 3 years, the JMB’s management funds grew to a surplus of over RM200,000.

(6) All the members of the management committee of a management corporation shall retire from office at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting. A retiring member of the management committee shall be eligible for re-election but no member of the management committee shall hold office for more than three consecutive terms. Under the SMA, no chairman, secretary or treasurer shall

CONTRIBUTOR | HBA Also, it is submitted that each of the committee members, despite the parcel owners’ equal support for them, must not hold office for more than three consecutive terms. It follows that MCs, despite getting support, whether majority or unanimous, from the parcel owners, ought to urge their management bodies to look for a pool of parcel owners who are ready and available to hold office. Subsequently, when the current committee members’ term of office expires, this pool of ‘suitable’ owners would be ready to take over office from the current committee members. Thus, the MCs’ accountability to the parcel owners could continue on. CONCLUSION The developer/management committee (MC) oversees the management funds. The funds are paid by the parcel owners regularly. In this sense, the management funds are easy money. The developer/ MC has big responsibility for the easy money. Being responsible for the money, the developer/ MC is also accountable for it. It is said that easy money corrupts and really easy money corrupts absolutely. Accountability is the antidote for easy money let alone really easy money. Therefore, responsibility and accountability are necessary ingredients in the recipe for MCs to win over parcel owners’ support and confidence. If all the above sounds like a mini government, it is in fact one. They have to be transparent, accountable and responsible to garner continuing support. This article has been contributed to National House Buyers Association (www.hba.org.my) towards Education, Information and Empowerment and will be continued in the next issue of I-Prop. The SMA though passed by Parliament and gazetted last year has not been implemented, as yet. It is pending the finalization of the governing Strata Management Regulations.

hold office for more than two consecutive years. Thus, despite the good leadership qualities the chairman may have and the parcel owners’ support, whether majority or unanimous, for the chairman, it is submitted that the chairman must not hold office for more than the stated period.

How to Unlock Your First Home Seven financial planners weigh in on the must-haves when trying to obtain the keys to your first house.

In iProperty.com Malaysia’s recent Asian Sentiment Survey for 2H2014, affordability of property took the spot as the primary concern consumers have when purchasing a home for themselves.

Relentless attention should also be paid to improving your personal cash flow by maximising cash inflow and minimising cash outflow. This is best done by working hard to increase income and practising delayed gratification to reduce your expenses.

Affordability is directly linked to financing, and in the fast-paced world of real estate increasing one’s knowledge in finance is safer bet than waiting for prices to drop. iMoney spoke to seven financial experts for advice on how to best be able to afford a first home.

You can also utilise the money in EPF Account 2 to maximise the size of the initial payment and to minimise the amount borrowed.

“How can I save up to buy my first home in Malaysia?”

- Rajen Devadason, CFP, Securities Commission-licensed financial planner with MAAKL Mutual Bhd and CEO of RD Wealth Creation

Exercise Delayed Gratification The first stumbling block most people face when it comes to buying their first home is saving up for the 10% initial payment and other miscellaneous fees. The best way to do this is by exercising delayed gratification. That is, to reduce your luxuries now to enjoy greater luxuries later. This could be practiced in many ways, like opting to use an outdated mobile phone or driving a modest secondhand car. Reducing these expenses helps to build up personal savings that can form the bedrock for the down payment on your home.

94 |

Begin with the End in Mind Buying your first property is often one of the biggest events in your life and as such, you should begin with the end in mind. Do not make the mistake of rushing into buying or entering into any investment or savings plan without proper planning. Start with your aspiration. Understand why you need it, identify the type of house you want to get, where it should be located, when you need it, and how much it costs.

You want your “home” to bring you joy and not quarrels over the debts in the long run. Then, come up with a suitable, regular investment or savings plan to help you achieve your goal. If you can’t afford to buy your dream house yet, consider renting or start small. Home is not only a place where we live but where we belong. You want your “home” to bring you joy and not quarrels over the debts in the long run. - Sin Chee Kwan, CFP, CEO of Fin Freedom Sacrifice Now for Gains Later It’s a norm to live on credit in today’s economic climate. Spending is much easier than saving, especially saving for a big ticket item like your first home. It is increasingly hard for an average Gen-Y to buy a house of their dreams. However, it’s our financial behaviour, not financial mathematics, that determines the success of this goal: • Save before spending – Have the discipline to save your targeted amount every month. • Increase the pain of paying – Only use cash or debit cards when you spend. • Delayed gratification – Detach yourself from marketing ploys and live within your means. • Don’t be greedy – Don’t gamble on get rich quick schemes as these invite default and speculative risks. • Be diligent in working and spending – Work hard to make more and focus on saving to build up your reserves faster. - Gavin Teoh Hock Geh, CFP, IFP, B.Sc (Hons), Director of Advisory & Practice Management, CMSRL/ A3564/2007, Centum Sage Advisory Inculcate the Habit of Saving Start saving as soon as you start receiving an income, be it in ‘angpow,’ pocket money or salary. The most important part in the act of saving is not the amount but the habit. Inculcate this habit by first putting aside a minimum amount of money regularly, before you even get a chance to spend it. The best time to save is now. The sooner you start saving, the more you will accumulate. Since you have a longer time horizon (due to young age), invest the money wisely and regularly to help it grow. Always choose the right investment vehicle that suits your risk appetite. - Datin Alice Neow Ean Lee, CFP, IFP, Associate Director – Financial Planning for Women, A.D. Financial Start Planning Early Your plan to buy a home should start the moment you get your first job, and not a year before you get married. Make it your top priority and aim to purchase your first

property before you get married because after you are married, your spouse will often influence your choice of property. You can use this commitment to push yourself to work harder to earn more money. To save up for your first house, keep your living expenses below 50% of your take home income. Reduce expenses that do not put money into your pocket. Save and invest the rest, about 20% to 30% for house. If you need a car, buy a used car instead of a new one, so that you can allocate more money for property. Maintain a good record of debt repayment so that it does not jeopardise your chances of getting a home loan. Reduce expenses that do not put money into your pocket. All these will help you to cultivate the habit of saving for the future and spending within your means. - SP Lim, CFP Licensed Financial Planner, Wilfred Consultancy

CONTRIBUTOR | iMoney.my Don’t Underestimate the Power of a Budget Before we get on to the common phrase of property - “location, location, location” - let’s start with the first and most important step: “budget, budget, budget.” For those considering to save for their first house, always start with a budget. With so many financial expectations and limited resources, getting the first property can be a huge financial burden. Like any financial plan, the first steps anyone should take are:

• If the timeframe is short (less than 3 years) to save, it is advisable to place your savings in a fixed deposit account or other low risk investment vehicles like fixed income or bond. • For longer time frames (more than 5 years), consider placing part of your savings in a balanced fund or income fund depending on risk tolerances, and the remaining in fixed deposit. Having more time allows you to take slightly more risk.

• Reassess your current cash flow against current income.

• Don’t forget the additional expenses that are incurred when purchasing a new home, such as legal fees, stamp duties and also furnishing.

• Categorise expenses as needs and wants, remove those that can wait. • Save up adequate emergency funds before planning to save for first house. Put aside at least three to six months of expenses.

• Finally, make sure all your assets, liabilities and incomes are protected by having comprehensive insurance coverage.

• Establish the appropriate budget to own a home. For example, if you have RM1,000 a month to play around with, work out a specific plan to achieve your goal by planning how long it would take to save for the 10% down payment. • From the budgeting, shortlist the types of homes that you can afford to purchase. No point trying to commit to what you cannot pay for in the future. After all, the first house is not an investment but a necessity.

- Lawrence Seow, CFP, Head, Financial Planning, VKA Wealth Planners Set a Target and Work Towards It For most newlyweds buying their first property can be stressful due to other commitments, such as car loans and family dependents. Thus, it is important to set a target for yourself. If your target is to buy your first residence in three years’ time, set aside a minimum of 30% of your household net

income and save up to 20% of the price of your potential property. For example: Household net income

RM6,500

30% monthly savings for 3 years to achieve 20% of down payment: RM6,500 X 30%

RM1,950

RM1,950 X 36months

RM70,200

With RM70,200, you can start looking for a property within the range of RM351, 000. By setting a realistic deadline, it motivates you to achieve your target and minimise the risk of property volatility. It is also recommended to save up 20% down payment to cover the processing fees, legal fees, stamp duty and others. By saving more, you can hedge the property inflation risk. - Nicholas Chu (CFP, IFP, RFP), Financial Planner cum Speaker, Phillip Wealth Planner Armed with these practical tips, you can take the first step to buying your first home. These money management tips could possibly save you from making a bad decision that would delay your goal. This article is courtesy of iMoney.my.

Old is Not Always Gold Sometimes it is best to go with your instincts when it comes to your taste in items.

Like every other form of art, Feng Shui can be viewed as a long, detailed journey of progression. Back in the Tang Dynasty of China, Feng Shui was known as Kan Yu. Believe it or not, instead of determining the location of your aquarium or kitchen stove, Kan Yu was used predominantly to select the burial spot for many deceased emperors. This practice is also known as Yin House Feng Shui, the study of the places for the dead. Interestingly, Yin House Feng Shui is the original form of Feng Shui. However, as time and progression washed over, Yin House gave way to another discipline – the Yang House Feng Shui - the study of the places for the living. That ultimately branched out to become the modern day Feng Shui we have today. Today’s Chinese culture is laced heavily with rich heritage of positive symbolism. Be it the phoenix sculpture or money tree - you name it, and we have it in our homes. But somehow, along the way, all

wealth. Contradictorily, a house painted fully in red will result in an excess of Fire Qi and this is not a good thing. Be moderate. If you think red is a suitable colour, go easy with it. Some people, in their pursuit to achieve the “heritage,” “vintage,” “shabby chic” or affluent look for their houses, would ubiquitously adorn their properties with antique furniture and decorations in the form of turtles, dragons and phoenixes. While these are nice to look at, it is important for you to know that these have nothing to do with Feng Shui, and everything to do with cultural symbolism. Putting a painting of a phoenix may not actually help you “rise above all predicaments”. The sole purpose of all these heritage items is just to provide a sense of positive reaffirmation to the occupants. In short, it’s purely psychological. Now let’s examine another misconception – the Stone Lions or Fu Dogs, which usually come in a pair. Many people associate these fierce-looking stone ornaments as a symbol of the guardian or protector of their houses. Logically, is it possible for a stationary stone sculpture of a mythical creature to protect your house from burglars? The answer is a simple one – no. The Fu Dogs do not generate any protective Qi, let alone have mythical powers, and are nothing more than a symbol of protection for your home.

the auspicious paintings and horse sculptures were conveniently grouped and categorised, haphazardly, into this field called Feng Shui. Take, for example, the colour red. For the Chinese, it denotes a sense of prosperity and wealth – so the redder your house, the bigger fortune and windfall the occupants would enjoy. This is of course not true. Although colours do have a small percentage of effect in Feng Shui, this doesn’t mean that red will attract more

Having said that, what exactly is Feng Shui? We all know that Feng Shui is neither your auspicious painting nor your magical coin frog. Truth is, Feng Shui is actually a skill of studying the flow of Qi in your property to make it work to your advantage. Never mind the colour, the animal or the antique furniture, because Feng Shui is definitely more than that.

Residential property prices in Malacca seem to have continued to be on the uptrend in 2013, particularly in locations such as Melaka Tengah. At the same time, rental yields continued to remain stable based on studies and reports. According to the Ministry of Financeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Valuation & Property Services Department, the property market in Malacca had remained firm in 2013. There were 15,369 transactions recorded worth RM4.6 billion, as compared to 15,907 transactions worth RM3.83 billion in 2012. The volume of transactions contracted by 3.4% but the value was up significantly by 20%. Their market report indicated that prices of residential properties were generally stable, with a few exceptions. In Melaka Tengah, a single-storey low-cost terraced home in Taman Seri Krubong recorded a double digit increase at 13.8% and transacted between RM55,000 and RM85,000. Taman Ayer Keroh Phase 1 to 3 fetched the highest price, ranging between RM80,000 and RM140,000. A TREND TO BE NOTED? On a similar note, single-storey terraced homes in Taman Malim Jaya, Taman Seri Telok Mas and Taman Kerjasama

rose by 19.2%, 17.5% and 16.9% respectively, ranging between RM90,000 and RM170,000. Similar units in Taman Angkasa Nuri, Alor Gajah recorded positive growth of 12% with the price range of RM110,000 to RM123,800. Within the Melaka Tengah, double-storey terraced units in Taman Paya Emas and Taman Jati grew moderately by 8.7% and 9.1%, due to their locations being close to the TESCO Hypermarket and the Hang Jebat stadium. The highest prices were noted at Taman Serindit Harmoni, having transacted between RM320,000 and RM420,000. HIGH-RISE, NOT-SO-HIGH PRICES In respect of high-rise properties, performance prices were mixed. Flats in Pangsapuri Tengkera Utama, Taman Malinja and Rumah Pangsa Bacang Permai recorded double digit increases of 13.2%, 15.9% and 18.2% respectively, due to strong demand. Apartment units in Pangsapuri Garden City experienced a sharp rise in price by 36.8% due to

high competitiveness. Similar units at Rumah Pangsa Laksamana Cheng Ho, Pangsapuri Bukit Beruang and Pangsapuri Pasir Emas recorded strong increases of 11.3%, 13.0% and 13.2% respectively, with prices ranging from RM75,000 to RM210,000. Similarly, condominiums also recorded better performance. High growth rates were recorded at Casaloga Condo and Ocean Palm Condo, with prices rising by 27.5% and 10.3% respectively. Seri Bayan condominium recorded the highest price range of RM390,000 to RM530,000 per unit. A STABLE, LEVEL PLAYING FIELD While property values continue to rise in various parts of Malacca, it is important for investors to note that rental yields have continued to remain stable. Statistics indicate that Malacca Town commanded higher monthly rental, when compared with other districts. Rentals of single-storey terrace houses in Malacca Town were between RM350 and RM550 per month, with the highest registered in Taman Aman. Similar units in other districts were between RM250 and RM550 per month. Rental increases for double storey low-cost houses were only recorded in Taman Datuk Tamby Chik, up by 15.4%, fetching RM375 per month. Meanwhile, rental for double-storey terraced houses remained stable at RM550 to RM1,500. The highest rental was recorded in Taman Kota Laksamana, Malacca Town, at RM1,000 to RM1,500 per month. Gross yield for landed property was between 2.5% and 5.7%. THE STRATA SEDUCTION In the case of high-rise properties, rental yield for stratified properties were more attractive. In Melaka Tengah, rental in Pangsapuri Laksamana 1 rose sharply by 20% at RM600 per month due to constant demand for fully-furnished units. Condominium units on the whole were stable, with monthly rentals between RM550 and RM3,000 per month. Gross yield for stratified property was from 3.6% to 14.6%.

A PREVIEW FOR THE TIME TO COME? These historical statistics are an indication of rising demand for properties in areas where economic activities and communities are thriving. There are expectations that Ayer Keroh will continue to prosper, given that the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) named Ayer Keroh as one of the five proposed connections in Malaysia for the high speed rail (HSR) between Malaysia and Singapore. The historical Malacca City, which is the state capital of Malacca, is also thriving as an international tourism and cultural destination, spurring retail and hospitality activity, helping make Melaka Tengah an attractive place to live. It also appears that there is decent capital appreciation of both landed and high-rise residential properties in such thriving neighbourhoods. As is normally expected, stratified high-rise residential homes also provide better rental yields as compared with landed properties, not only in Melaka but as a general rule.
