A new year brings a new beginning – and fresh hope. Resolutions are made to guide us towards outcomes we wish to achieve for the year ahead.

So, what’s in store for the property market and your property portfolio? What type of property is hot and what is not? Where are the locations to consider and, ultimately, how to commence on your property journey – or review it?

This is what we at Star Media Group Bhd via StarProperty.my, Propwall.my and iBilik aim to bring you throughout 2018. Great property insights, relevant property news on developers, and location reviews to help you make the best decisions possible.

We are also pleased to highlight the findings of our consumer sentiment survey. Over 6,000 respondents shared their property-related views, hopes and desires.

A complete version will be made available for members shortly. Instructions on how to become a member can be found at the end of the Buyers' Sentiment Survey highlights. Many participants in the market still face challenges ranging from loan eligibility to product suitability or availability.

Diligent property seekers will be well rewarded by arming themselves with relevant information and updates to source for the best deals possible.

It is less important when you start your property journey. What’s important is that you start.
