INVESTING in real estate clearly still has the most number of success stories compared with the many other forms of investment, said Malaysian Institute of Estate Agents (MIEA) president Stephen Tew.
Unlike other investment products such as equities, bonds, metals, futures, etc., investment in real estate gives you the opportunity to be in total control of the management of the investment and dictate its value via value adding, such as interior decoration or architecture, he said at the Malaysian Annual Real Estate Convention 2003 in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday.
