Speaking on the topic of “Where and What to Buy”, Siva explained that homebuyers of today look beyond the "location, location and location" mantra. These days, elements such as modern design, an integrated township, gated and guarded, aesthetics, community engagement, and comprehensive and world-class facilities are what buyers are looking for.
Additionally, he foresees a few locations around the country as hotspots for property investment.
“If you are looking at property investment, the Klang Valley is still the pinnacle. Penang is a good place to invest in, with [property value] getting expensive on the island and moving towards the mainland. As the spectre of Covid-19 disappears slowly, there will be more activities in the Iskandar Puteri region. Ipoh [meanwhile] is gaining fast traction as a retirement village.”
