This condo investment has also been a drag.

A lot of people like to buy property for investment only.

I don understand.

To get 4% yield is hard on properties





AK says...

I dun understand also. 😛

4% is a dream... 3% (gross yield) is already very good. 😉

And if cannot rent out, it is not 0% but negative because still must maintain. (Vacancy rate is so high now) 😛

Ask these people to buy Martin Modern by Guocoland, OK? 😛

My mom 5 years ago bought a condo on impulse. 

The rental from initial $2,750 drop to current $2,200. 

Still must pay maintenance, property tax, tax on the rental income etc. 

Negative return.





AK says...

Aiyoh. 

Older folks even more so should be more conservative... 😞
