PENANG recently come under the radar of investors from China, said Property Talk principal Steven Cheah.
“It used to be Australia that attracted their interests, but now it is Penang. So, we can expect to see potential house buyers from China at the fair,” he said.
Cheah was speaking at the sideline of the StarProperty.my Fair 2018 which opened at Queensbay Mall yesterday and will end on Sunday.
He said the China investors were interested in high-rise properties near the sea priced at around RM1mil to RM2mil.
Cheah added that house buyers were now more selective due to higher interest rates.
“Most of them will be paying attention to the new launches in the southwest district and in Seberang Prai, where it is still possible to find properties priced below RM500,000,” he said.
Cheah said with the right location, good road connectivity, product type and concept, demand for properties in Penang would still be strong.

“Malaysia’s population is young with an average age of 30 to 31 years old, and many people are still looking to start a family. This is a good sign for the property market.
“There will be weaknesses in between as the market is adjusting to the supply and demand situation.
“From the medium to long term perspective, property is still one of the choice investments preferred by investors,” he said.
Meanwhile, Yew Chor Hian, who hails from Kedah, said he was interested in a high-rise property priced at around RM600,000.
“I work in Bayan Baru, so I am interested to stay on the island.
