    Very useful information, but do I have to pay 90% of the balance or when I get the keys means when completed the project.

    • @yewfoong
      @yewfoong  Před měsícem

      For secondary market, 90% will need to be paid around 3 months from the date you get the approval of state authority.
      As for primary market, payment is based on the statis of completion by %.

    is that silver m2h program for KL after 5 years how is it renewable? what if government asks for a higher fixed deposit afterwards? 🤔

    • @yewfoong
      @yewfoong  Před měsícem +1

      Usually the MM2H program that you signed up for, all the requirements will not change during the period.
      After the expiry of your MM2H period and if there are new requirements like higher fixed deposits etc, then you will probably need to comply in order to renew for further terms.

      Property Title is clean and safe in Malaysia, guided by the Torrens law (indefensible title when title is under your name).
      As for lawyer fee, they follow a tier. You can easily find an online calculator for that. Hope this helps 👍🏽

      Is this resale a peculiar problem for foreign owned property only?

    • @yewfoong
      @yewfoong  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Issue with resale value and finding buyers depends on the area, type of development and developer etc. No difference whether is foreign or local owned. These days there are many many developments to choose from and its so important to choose the right one.

      Do foreigners(non mm2h) property buyer get residence visa for malaysia with the property purchase?

    • @yewfoong
      @yewfoong  Před 2 měsíci +4

      Real property gain tax (RPGT) in Malaysia for foreigner is:
      1st 5 years = 30% on the capital gain
      >5 years = 10% on capital gain
      Property buyer so not automatically receive the MM2H visa when purchasing property. It has to be applied separately based on the conditions and criteria.

      -> Should MM2H be applied first and then after 1 year buy property or other way is possible?

      -> Can a dependent fulfill the requirement of 60 days stay in Malaysia instead of the main applicant?

    I have the Sarawak MM2H visa but KL would suit me better as a base as I only have to spend 30 days in Sarawak a year. Can I purchase in KL and travel to Sarawak as per visa requirements?

      From my understanding, the money deposited as per visa requirement can only be withdrawn to purchase the property in Sarawak but you can always purchase properties in KL via different funds.
