Sell for Cash or Keep?

JV88 — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 22:06:25 +0800

Guys,

I'm having a good dilemma that need your kind opinion . I have a prop unit with positive rental cash flow. Should I sell it now and keep the cash (approximately RM1 Million nett profit) or just keep it and enjoy the positive cash flow (about 7%)?

If I sell it, I might able to use the cash for next bullet or to strengthen my sustaining power in case of emergency (like everyone predicted, the next financial catastrophy or bubble burst, finger crossed). But if I do nothing also, the rental income are generating some positive cash flow for me.

So the question here, is it wise to sell it now while I'm able to cash it out with extra 1 million and loose my monthly positive cash flow? Or better to just enjoy the cash flow and risking the value to drop in the future (will our property price drop?)

Hhmmm....what say you?

Cockroaches in Car

JV88 — Thu, 16 Aug 2012 14:02:14 +0800

Guys,

Need your help. How do we remove cockroaches from our car? My wife Myvi used to be use for transfering a lot of cooking materials (flours, vege, onions, etc) before, thus make it a perfect place for cockroaches breeding ground. Now even though we already clean the whole car, spray even with ridsect, the cockroaches seem like continue to be there.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Greetings,

Anyone can share some light about this type of investment?
1. Is it under residential or commercial group?
2. Secure under HDA Act or purely commercial?
3. Let say if we buy this unit, can it be use for residential or commercial purposes?
4. The process of acquiring this unit is it same like normal residential prop or its totally a different ball game altogether?

Thanks.

MRTA issue

JV88 — Thu, 07 Jun 2012 09:03:47 +0800

Guys,
Need some clarification regarding MRTA here. As I know, when the owner passed away, the MRTA will kicks-in & pay all the outstanding loan right? Then the property will go to whoever nominated after that. In my case, the house is bought under my wife’s name but the loan is under her mother’s name. So in case (touch wood) anything happened to her mother, will the MRTA settle all the loan or my wife need to continue bear the loan? Any sifus or otai willing to answer this issue? Thanks a million.
