Investing in Malaysia property from a Brit's perspective

If you are a non-resident of Malaysia and would like to retire in a warm and affordable place, consider Malaysia. Don't take my words. Read the article by Andrew Lomax, a Brit.

Another reason for buying property in Malaysia is potential capital appreciation of your property in Malaysia against major currencies. Malaysia Ringgit has gained strength since late 2006, e.g. less Malaysia Ringgit for each unit of foreign currency. See currency charts below:
Malaysia Ringgit per US Dollar
Malaysia Ringgit per Canada Dollar
Malaysia Ringgit per British Pound
Malaysia Ringgit per Singapore Dollar

Who should consider the bungalow?

Besides having excellent value(less than RM 300k for land area of 6k++ sf), the bungalow has potential for further appreciation in value. The main reason is Putrajaya/Cyberjava. The expansion of these areas will push up prices of surrounding areas, e.g. Nilai, Seremban, Senawang

Who should consider the bungalow?

• Retirees and semi-retirees. Since most retirees have fixed income, value for money is very important. The bungalow has excellent potential for appreciation in value due to development in Putrajaya/Cyberjava. Owner of the bungalow is being compensated for holding the bungalow.


• Technopreneurs. If the technopreneur is not required to meet clients regularly, then Senawang is a bargain due to lower cost of living. In addition, there is more than one Internet provider in Senawang : TM Net(Streamyx) and Digi(Mobile Broadband)

Bungalow design tip #2 - keep the bungalow cool by repelling heat, insulating against heat and dissipating heat

You may consider the following tactics in order to keep the bungalow cool with low maintenance cost:

• Heat repelling. Example is painting roofs and external walls with light colors


• Heat insulation. Examples are roof insulation, high ceiling act as heat buffer, clay bricks have higher mass which delay heat transmission, planting large trees to provide shade for the bungalow.


• Heat dissipation. Examples are keeping the bungalow ventilated by opening windows and keeping surrounding areas clear, planting large trees around the bungalow to help reduce the heat island effect
