            <description>Newbie here, I want to ask the seniors here, how buying property with 90% loan can be profitable when the initial cost is so much, factoring in stamp duty, legal fees, insurance, etc. When we sell the property after 5 years given the Rpgt tax will be 5%, and all the bank interest incurred during the 5 years, paying penalty early loan settlement. Furthermore, property price supposed to be increase 8% per year, but the after checking property prices, it does not seem to happen in many current properties. So, when I sell the house in the 6th year, I will be at loss. This same goes to doing loan compression acquiring many properties at once and multiple loss at the same time. Hopefully, someone can guide me, thank you.</description>
