Paramount Corp Bhd group chief executive officer Jeffrey Chew.

PETALING JAYA: Property developer Paramount Corporation Bhd expects the property market to remain soft in the second half (2H) of 2025 without any catalyst to boost it amid concerns over US tariffs as well as rising costs due to the fuel subsidy rationalisation and Sales and Service Tax (SST) expansion.

Group chief executive officer and director Jeffrey Chew Sun Teong said that to date, the company has managed to achieved RM600 million sales out of the targeted RM1.6 billion sales for this year as buyers are holding back due to the rising cost of living.
