JOHOR BAHRU, 23 July 2013 - Asia’s leading property portal, PropertyGuru, will hold its Malaysia Property Showcase (MPS) 2013 for the first time in Johor Bahru, at the Traders Hotel, Puteri Harbour on 27 to 28 July.
“Johor remains a strong investment hub because of its minimal foreign ownership restriction, high ROI potential on projects, high capital appreciation potential and zero capital gains tax on properties sold after five years of purchase,” said Gerard Kho, Country Manager at PropertyGuru Malaysia.
“What’s exciting about the MPS Johor is that we are offering potential buyers the privilege to view and visit the actual developer sites via a FREE shuttle service, from the Traders Hotel, Puteri Harbour to the sites.” The free free shuttle service will also be available for Singaporean buyers.
“Overall, potential buyers are able to have access to 10 property developments in just one central location, and enjoy up to a five-percent rebate for selected property developments,” added Kho.
MPS 2013 will showcase different projects from developers Tanah Sutera, Country Garden, UM Land (Dynasty View), UM Land (Lextrend), Tropicana Danga Bay, Mah Sing and Zhuoyuan Iskandar.
Moreover, property talks will be given by speakers such as property expert and best selling author Milan Doshi who will talk on ‘The Benefits of Buying Property Direct from Developers and The Hidden Gems of Malaysia Property Hotspot’. Jonathan Lee (GMAC Realtors), Ryan Khoo (Alpha Marketing) and Steven Tan (Skybridge International) will also share insights on Johor properties.
“We are expecting a good balance of both local and foreign buyers, especially Singaporeans, as with tighter cooling measures announced at the beginning of this year, we foresee that Singaporeans will be looking to invest in Johor,” added Kho.
