Malaysia's residential property sector enters cooling phase


PETALING JAYA: The residential property segment, a sub-sector of the overall property market, appears to have entered “a cooling phase” in the first two quarters with sales expected to stay “moderate” for the coming third quarter, according to the Malaysian Institute of Economic Research (Mier).

“The macro-prudential measures implemented by Bank Negara to cool down the property market since 2010 look likely to have played a role here,” Mier said.
