Transaction volume expected to remain low


The domestic property market is likely to remain slow in terms of transaction volume going forward. This will be mainly due to the weak economy and stringent bank lending policies, says Jeffri Rahim, vice-president of project marketing and estate agency at Savills (M) Sdn Bhd, when presenting The Edge/ Savills Klang Valley Residential Monitor 2Q2016.

“Market response on the primary and secondary markets has been mixed. Properties on the secondary market are still seeing slow growth in terms of transaction volume as the majority of homebuyers are too cautious in making a commitment. This has led to difficulties in closing deals,” he points out.
