THE recent StarProperty.my Fair@The Curve proved to be a success as participating exhibitors drew interest from potential homebuyers.
The four-day long property fair was from October 27 to 30 (Thursday to Sunday), 10am to 10pm at G Floor, Centre Court@The Curve.
As budget 2017 was recently announced, and while many homebuyers were appreciative of the Government’s help to get the B40 and public servants a roof over their heads, they were upset about the lack of initiative for middle-income earners.
According to a senior real estate negotiator, the property market is in a tricky situation, “With the rise of labour cost, compliance cost and land price, it is not easy for property developers to drive down property prices,” he said, and added, “We hope for some relaxation (of measures) from the banks because the demand for properties is there, but getting home loans approved is a challenge. However, if there is too much relaxation, the property market will also be at risk.”
Despite the slowdown in the property market, home seekers were aplenty at the fair.
They were greeted with a host of luxurious projects such as The Luxe by Macly Equity Sdn Bhd, M City and Lakeville Residences by Mah Sing Group Bhd, as well as Begonia, Sefina Mont Kiara and Verdi Eco-Dominiums by UEM Sunrise Bhd.
Other prominent participating developers included Tropicana Corporation Bhd, Agile PJD Development Sdn Bhd and Eupe Bangsar South Development (JV) Sdn Bhd.
Homebuyers at the fair were pleased to receive electrical and household items worth more than RM10,000 in a lucky draw.
On top of that, lucky visitors who participated in a survey also won Spritzer Hot and Warm Mini Dispensers and other exciting mystery gifts.
