| Property investments
in Malaysia provide a good investment opportunity to overseas investors
seeking competitively priced property with
sustainable growth potential in both the residential and tourism sectors. The stability of the
property market is driven by the country’s economy - GDP
growth was 7% in 2004 coupled with low inflation. In addition,
the government has implemented policies to attract foreign investment
including tax incentives and pro-business policies.
The market presents 2 distinct investment opportunities - the
professional rental market in the major cities and holiday homes
in the resorts. Kuala Lumpur leads the first type of investment – fuelled
by the large exp-pat community, rental yields are typically between
6-10%.
