Malaysians are still interested and should continue to buy properties as long as the property meets their requirements  — meeting lifestyle needs, at a good location and being reasonably-priced properties that they could afford. Of course the old mantra of “location, location and location” still works, but buyers want far more today  — quality yet affordable homes, lifestyle features with adequate built-up sizes as well as proximity to amenities and public transport.

Property developers have observed that homebuyers these days are concerned about the quality of their living environment and value sustainability.

Participating developers of the Malaysia Virtual Property Expo 2019 (VPEX 2019) that runs from 19 July to 9 August 2019 at vpex.edgeprop.my are offering exciting promotions for buyers during the VPEX period. The 10 developers include the top players in the country and they have carefully picked 18 projects that they feel meet buyers’ requirements and needs today.

The developers are Berjaya Land Bhd, I&P Group Sdn Bhd, Matrix Concepts Holdings Bhd, Paramount Property, Platinum Victory Holdings Sdn Bhd, Rawang Lakes Sdn Bhd, Sime Darby Property, S P Setia Bhd, Tropicana Corp Bhd and Villamas Group.

The projects being sold during VPEX are located in prime or up-and-coming areas in the Klang Valley and Greater Kuala Lumpur including Seremban that have easy access to highways and is close to amenities.

The property developers believe that the market is gradually gaining momentum and is on its way to recovery — slowly but surely. The developer’s role, they say, is to offer the right product at the right pricing to attract genuine homebuyers.

They also believe the collaboration between the government and the private sector to initiate the Home Ownership Campaign (HOC) which will run until the end of this year, providing stamp duty exemptions and price discounts, gives homebuyers even greater motivation to own a home.

During VPEX 2019, some participating developers are offering even more freebies to buyers of selected projects including zero down payments, referral reward discounts, rebates, flexible financing packages and gift vouchers.

Hence, industry players opine that now is as good a time as any to buy and own a property, especially first-time homebuyers.
