News Detail
Sabah is one of South East Asia’s most popular tourist destinations, in fact tourism has been growing by 20% year on year. Sabah sits on a coastline with beaches easy rivalling the Caribbean, a climate to match, jungle plant-life, tropical flowers, and palm trees blowing in the wind.
Sabah’s long reputation as a popular tourist destination means all the amenities are on hand, not to mention things like surf-shops to make sure visitors get the most from the dozens of activities available in Sabah. Being an ex-British colony many people speak English in Malaysia. Furthermore many of the laws are similar if not the same as British law, which makes the property buying process easier.
Malyasia’s banking system is more advanced than most of the South East Asian countries, so foreigners can get 70% loan-to-value mortgages on Sabah property and any property in Malaysia.
The 20% yearly growth in Sabah’s tourism sector means the range of amenities is always growing, as well as the past-times, and also means that rental yields are extremely high -- especially on resort properties. For instance you can get a guaranteed yield of 7% for five years on a big villa in Sabah, an incredibly strong yield for a property of such a size, and what’s more it’s serviced by hotel staff.
On top of that Capital Gains Tax was recently abolished in Malaysia, and like most of Asia, capital appreciation is strong around the 20-25% mark. A truly smart investment is to buy the above mentioned villa, keep it for five years, possibly using the guaranteed rental yield for buy-to-let finance or to pay the mortgage, and then sell it for twice what you paid for it. Whether you then invest that in another guaranteed rental property in another emerging market is up to you -- either way it’s a hassle free property investment in Sabah.
