- It can be seen from the advertisements that the monthly rental income of the house is roughly three times the monthly mortgage payment, which sounds exaggerated;
- If you hear such a ratio in China, you may feel it is unbelievable. In China, it is normal for the monthly repayment amount to be more than three times the rental income. For example, if the monthly repayment is 8000, the rent can only bring in 2000.
- It can be seen that there is a huge disparity in the high rental yield between Malaysia and China, which is so large that it is hard to believe;
- Not only is the rental yield of housing in Malaysia very high, but it is also very high in Dubai. The comparison of property prices in Dubai to its rental income is surprisingly cheap too.
