Shrinking homes, rising prices


PETALING JAYA: More young property buyers, especially those about to start their own families, may be forced to purchase their first homes in the outskirts of the Klang Valley, such as Rawang and Dengkil, as residential properties in prime city locations suffer from “shrinkflation”.

Shrinkflation refers to the sustained increase in property prices even though new units are smaller than they used to be.
