Malaysia, Borneo: Paradise, Property and Profit

2008-07-04T10:21:00.000-07:00

The overseas property specialists, David Stanley Redfern Ltd, are currently offering luxury villas and low rise condominiums on the beachfront in Sabah, Borneo.

Serviced and managed by the 5 star Nexus Resort hotel – a 17 times award winner (including the Virgin Holidays Gold Award) – these contemporary tropical homes will provide investors with the ultimate private holiday experience, as well as healthy rental yields; the hotel is already at maximum occupancy.

Designed by world class architects WATG, this private piece of paradise is set in beautiful landscaped grounds and stunning natural surroundings yet is only 30 minutes from Kota Kinabalu international airport. Nestled within 6km of pristine white sandy beach; balconies overlook the South China Sea and a 130 million year old rainforest. While nearby Mount Kinabulu rises to 4,095m, its sides lined with tropical rainforest and alpine meadows that form part of a World Heritage Site.

Sabah has six national parks and Borneo, the world’s third highest island, is home to around 15,000 species of flowering plants and 3,000 species of trees, hundreds of birds and mammals: elephants, rhinos, tigers and leopards, endangered Orangutans and snakes that change colour.

The island is surrounded by the South China Sea to the north and northwest, the Suly Sea to the northeast, the Celebes Sea and the Makassar Strait to the east, and the Java Sea and Karimata Strait to the south.

Then there’s the alpine meadows, the endemic species, the rare peat swamp forests, the Sunda Shelf mangroves, the extensive cave systems and the rich tapestry of 30 different sub-ethnic groups that make-up Borneo’s unique culture.

Over two million tourists visited Sabah alone in 2006 and Sabah Tourism Board maintains that with the very high occupancy figure of 72%, the area still has a severe holiday bed shortage. What is more, Sabah has one of the highest tourism growth rates in Malaysia and the cumulative number of global tourist arrivals rose to 842 million in 2006, which translates to average growth of about 7% per annum over five decades. Tourism arrivals continue to grow, and in January 2008, over 194,838 people visited Sabah compared to 165,810 in January 2007.

The Malaysian property market is also one of the strongest in the world and property is expected to grow by no less than 20 percent per year, and possibly by as much as 25 percent over the next few years.

With high rental yields (guaranteed 7 percent) and fast capital appreciation, Nexus Residencies is a unique investment, in a unique luxury golf-club resort, on a unique island.

Malaysia Property Market Will Continue to Grow

2008-05-17T22:31:00.000-07:00

There are reports on the web saying that Malaysia property market is set to plateau this year but it just isn't true. Everyone knows that Asian markets are going to continue to grow throughout any global slowdown, and Malaysia is one of the biggest benefactors of its growth. Areas like Sabah, Borneo are seeing massively rising tourism numbers from Asia's rapidly expanding middle class, and Kuala Lumpur is developing into a chique commercial hub, on par with any of the world's great capital cities.

The rising cost of building materials had people running for the hills shouting about how it would cause developers to wait and see what the market held in store before bringing their new Malaysia property onto the market. But that has not been the case; there are still plenty of new developments being unveiled in Malaysia.

David Stanley Redfern Ltd have just brought the Vivaldi development in Kuala Lumpur onto the books, an amazing development of luxury off-plan apartments, in the stunning Mont-Kiara district of Kuala Lumpur. Residents enjoy unique luxuries like a private lobby and elevators opening straight into apartments etc, as well as the obvious benefits of capital city life: being walking distance from great restaurants, high-end shops and boutiques, and even international schools.

Liam Bailey, head of international research for David Stanley Redfern Ltd gave his views on Malaysia's potential:
"With global markets and economies having become so intertwined, when a big market like the U.S. starts to wean, it does trigger a domino effect, and that makes it easy for everyone to start battening down the hatches. But global markets becoming intertwined, and companies becoming so multinational as flights got cheaper and the massive growth in internet use, means there is sufficient money in global business, even in the likes of China and India alone, to regenerate global economies through foreign direct investment. For instance: China and India buying massive amounts of grain from Brazil because it is the cheapest supplier."

"Malaysia grows because Asia is growing, not least through regional and medical tourism, the former increasing by around 20% per year, as the Asian Middle Classes grow, (In India, the number of people earning more than $5000 will double to 20million in the next two years), through new employment, promotion, and rising affluence in start-up businesses.

" Not to mention, the massive number of graduates from Asia's shining educational systems some, going off to be doctors and high-earning lawyers, but some starting up businesses and becoming the next wave of property tycoons, or any other business they think up. Make no mistake, Malaysia property will continue to grow in value, the only effect the global slowdown may have is bringing capital growth down from 15-20% to 10%, which is still solid growth for an established market. Rental yields will continue to be strong at around 8%."
