Shafie: ‘If someone can’t pay the monthly instalments for his condo, chances are that he wouldn’t have been paying the maintenance fees either.’

IN 2007 Shafie Bustan bought his first property in the auction market. Being the only bidder, he got the condo in Desa Melawati, Kuala Lumpur, at the reserve price of RM66,000.

He didn’t research the property or view the unit before bidding for it.
