Pasaran hartanah tempatan akan merosot dengan ketara jika Kempen Pemilikan Rumah (HOC) tidak dilaksanakan, kata Menteri Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan, Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin. Beliau berkata, kempen berkenaan akan terus memacu pembelian hartanah di negara ini di tengah-tengah persekitaran kadar faedah yang rendah, meskipun berdepan persekitaran mencabar disebabkan oleh pandemik COVID-19.

Property prices not necessarily be affordable post-Covid
Property prices might not necessarily be more affordable post-Covid-19 due to market changes and wage growth, the housing minister said. Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin said the economic crisis brought on by the Covid19 pandemic saw the housing market, labour and financial sectors going through adjustments. “Banks are likely to tighten their lending conditions to reduce their exposure to a higher risk of possible default from mortgage payments, making it even harder for first-time homebuyers to enter the market,” Zuraida said at the 2021 Malaysian Housing and Property Summit yesterday, virtually organised by the KSI Strategic Institute for Asia Pacific.
