StarProperty.my Buyers’ Sentiment Survey 2017 has come to an end. We would like to say a big THANK YOU to all readers for your participation and enthusiasm.

A total of 6,000 Malaysians participated in StarProperty.my’s Buyers’ Sentiment Survey which was held over the span of three months beginning mid-September to mid-December.

Out of the 6,000 respondents, 53.07% are first-time homebuyers, 19.46% are upgraders, while the remaining 27.47% are investors.

Some interesting finds from the survey are:

1. 71.53% would not live in a place where it takes one or two hours of commute.
2. 54.85% would not buy a property where the previous occupant had died in the said property, but 21.19% would still go for it!
3. 57.12% are NOT aware that all real estate negotiators must now wear the authorised tag issued by Board of Valuers, Appraisers and Estate Agents (BOVAEA) when conducting business.

And now, the WINNERS of the final round are:

• The travel luggage goes to Joanne Mathilda Joseph from Penang
• The power bank goes to Mohamed Khalid from Kota Damansara
• The pen drives goes to Jayne Goh from Subang Jaya and Thomas Ng Chee Weng from Shah Alam
• The Starbucks voucher goes to Liaw Yik Kee from Petaling Jaya
