It’s time to listen, learn and decide. Look for your Home!
When I was in Singapore for a property show, I noticed that Singaporean investors love to listen to talks. This is the same even when the investor is an experienced one.

MYHSR Corp: Freeze! Can’t sell.
I think many property investors are looking at any High Speed Rail (HSR) news positively. Yes, it will take another 10 years but for those seriously thinking about investing, 10 year should not be when we start to buy. There’s another confirmation on the seriousness of the High Speed Rail KL – SG was reported…

It was mentioned by KGV International Property Consultants (Johor) Sdn Bhd executive director Samuel Tan in his speech during the Malaysian Property Summit Mid-Year Review 2016. He said, “Who says don’t buy in Johor’s property market? You should buy! There are a lot of good property to…

Mah Sing’s RM5 billion Meridin East in Iskandar Malaysia
When I was in JB two weekends ago, I drove past a sign which said Meridin East. There was no time to take any photos as I was driving… Haha. Recently, I read about it online. I think billboards are important but the truth is only online allows us to know more. These days, the…

Johor Premium Outlet again, after 3.5 years. Still good.
I was in JB just a few days ago for a good friend’s wedding and I brought my family along this time. In my very last trip there, I bought quite a pair of Charles & Keith shoes for my wife. Well, it has been replaced be Pedro. First impression, Johor Premium Outlet is still…
