Tips and Guides

移居热带天堂成趋势?沙巴成亚洲投资者的“第二个家”! 移居热带天堂成趋势?沙巴成亚洲投资者的“第二个家”!

Version: EN本文内容是由IQI旗下房地产中介 Vincy Lim 和 David Leong 提供。   从马来西亚地图上看,沙巴州像是一幅拼图,分为超过20个各具特色的地区,让人不禁想探索这片多样化的土地。除了首府亚庇(Kota Kinabalu),沙巴的主要商业贸易活动和行政工作还集中在几个重要城市,如山打根(Sandakan)、斗湖(Tawau)、仙本那(Semporna)、拿笃(Lahad Datu)和根地咬(Keningau)。   在此篇沙巴房地产市场见解中,我们邀请了Vincy Lim和David Leong,两位分别专注于斗湖和亚庇市场的 IQI房地产中介,帮助投资者在投资前“做好功课”! 阅读内容1. 沙巴当前的房产趋势  2. 沙巴是否有可负担房屋?  首购族买房优惠  3. 旅游区真的值得投资吗?  黄金投资地区  热门房地产投资类型民宿与餐饮业入驻的绝佳机会  4. 沙巴成“第二家园”投资者的热门选择  1. 沙巴当前的房产趋势 斗湖 斗湖的住宅类型主要以平地住宅为主,高楼住宅相对较少。根据Vincy的描述,由于当地人对高楼住宅的接受度较低,发展商也倾向开发更受欢迎的平地住宅。   平地住宅的高需求源自当地人长久以来的文化与习惯,使他们对高楼住宅兴趣不大。   在房价方面,斗湖市中心的排屋价格已上涨至约RM800,000,而半独立式住宅的价格则介于RM1,300,000至RM1,400,000之间。 亚庇 相比斗湖,亚庇的房地产发展更加活跃,平地住宅和高楼住宅都提供多样化的选择。由于亚庇的公寓和排屋市场均有一定的需求,因此房产供应相对平衡。然而,这两类房产的买家群体有所不同。 许多买家购买公寓后将其改为民宿经营,而平地住宅则更倾向于由当地人自住。   David指出,目前亚庇双层排屋的价格已高达RM1,500,000,而公寓价格则约为每平方米RM1,000至RM1,500。这种市场现状使民宿业者仍能从中获得可观的投资回报。 2. 沙巴是否有可负担房屋? 沙巴在2025年财政预算案中获得仅次于砂拉越的高额拨款,也包括可负担房屋项目,以协助低收入家庭实现购房梦想。   然而,可负担房屋的供应量因地区收入水平而有所不同。作为首府的亚庇,因居民收入较高,可负担房屋的数量相对较少。   在斗湖,像MyRumah、Rumah Mesra Rakyat和PR1MA这类项目因购房门槛较低,吸引了众多中低收入家庭,成为当地最受欢迎的可负担房屋选择。 首购族买房优惠 在2025年财政预算案中,政府宣布拨款RM59.3亿推动住房计划,旨在帮助更多马来西亚人轻松实现购房梦想。其中一项优惠政策是,首次购房者在购买价格不超过RM500,000的住宅房产时,可享有高达RM7,000的税收减免。   可负担房屋计划的主要申请者是中低收入家庭,这为当地居民以优惠价格拥有房产提供了宝贵机会。 Vincy Lim点击阅读2025年财政预算案3. 旅游区真的值得投资吗? 众所周知,沙巴州是国内外游客喜爱的旅游目的地,不论是喜欢大海还是山景,沙巴州都一应俱全。那么,沙巴的旅游区是否具有投资潜力? 黄金投资地区  说到沙巴旅游区,仙本那岛、西巴丹岛和昆达山是不可忽视的重要景点。   仙本那岛和西巴丹岛(Semporna Island)是世界著名的潜水胜地,以清澈的海水和丰富的海洋生物吸引着众多潜水爱好者。仙本那岛位于沙巴东南沿海,靠近斗湖。除了潜水,游客还可以在周边的海岛进行浮潜、观光和享受海滩活动,是热爱海洋与自然的游客理想的度假胜地。   昆达山(Kundasang)则坐落于亚庇附近,气候凉爽宜人,拥有美丽的山景,成为了不少游客向往的度假胜地。 昆达山是朝圣神山——京那巴鲁山的必经之地,游客可以在这里感受宁静的自然环境,享受远足和登山的乐趣。这些地区的自然美景吸引了大量国内外游客,促进了沙巴旅游业的发展,近年来大有起色。 热门房地产投资类型仙本那岛、西巴丹岛 在仙本那岛和西巴丹岛游玩时,游客多数选择居住在水上别墅,既能欣赏美丽的海景放松身心,也能体验不同于城市的独特居住方式。 Vincy表示,正因如此,许多投资者选择将水上别墅作为投资项目,其每月的投资回报率相当可观,通常在RM5,000至RM10,000之间。   除了投资房产,一些投资者还看中了岛屿的投资潜力,直接购买土地进行投资。 昆达山 此外,游客们通常希望在昆达山的住宿能直接看到沙巴神山的壮丽景观,因此,面对山景的房产具有更高的投资价值。  昆达山位于拉瑙高地,从这里可以欣赏到东南亚最高峰——京那巴鲁山的景色。清新的山区气候也使这里成为一个逃离炎热天气的理想避暑胜地。 民宿与餐饮业入驻的绝佳机会 Vincy提到,目前仙本那岛上的酒店供应已接近饱和,如果继续投资酒店业,可能会面临不理想的投资回报。   如果想要获得更好的投资回报,可以考虑开发仙本那岛上尚缺乏的民宿和餐饮业市场。Vincy Lim由于民宿和伙食的需求持续增加,投资者们可以考虑在这两个领域进行投资,不仅能满足游客的需求,还能带来可观的投资回报,进一步提升沙巴旅游业的吸引力。 4. 沙巴成“第二家园”投资者的热门选择 沙巴凭借独特的魅力,成为国内外房地产投资者的热门目的地。 除了将房地产开发为游客住宿的选择外,还有许多投资者购买房产作为“第二家园”,随时可以前往沙巴享受度假时光。   Vincy和David透露,沙巴吸引了来自砂拉越、文莱、台湾、韩国和中国等地的大量投资者,他们热衷于在这片美丽的土地上购买“第二个家”。 热门的投资地点包括马努干岛(Manukan)和沙比岛(Sapi Island),以及气候宜人的昆达山和丹侬谷高地(Danum Valley)。 沙巴凭借其独特的自然景观和日益发展的旅游业,成为了国内外投资者的热土。无论是投资水上别墅、民宿还是购买第二家园,沙巴都为投资者提供了丰富的机会。 沙巴的房地产市场无疑具备强大的投资潜力。随着旅游业的不断增长,未来沙巴将继续吸引更多投资者的目光,为他们带来可观的回报。 除了旅游区的投资项目,沙巴州也有多项可负担房屋选择,让人民实现“人人都能买房”的愿望! Vincy Lim 常驻斗湖,在房地产领域拥有多年经验,曾入选成为斗湖地区 IQI 最佳二手房屋销售表现者之一。David Leong 常驻亚庇,在房地产领域拥有多年的专业知识,历年来也获得了不少由 IQI 颁发的奖项。沙巴房地产因蓬勃的旅游业深受外国投资者青睐!你是否也想了解沙巴房产投资?立即与我们联系![hubspot portal="5699703" id="85ebae59-f425-419b-a59d-3531ad1df948" type="form"]延伸阅读:1. 教育资源、大型休闲活动助推砂拉越租赁市场!5分钟读懂砂州房市2. 别再为槟雪隆的高房价发愁!彭亨州房价更亲民:云顶、金马伦高原,值得投资吗?3. 外资涌入槟城买房:LRT和土地稀缺推动房价,有望暴涨20%?!

Malaysia’s Terraced House Prices to Rise by 5%, Experts Say | IQI   Malaysia’s Terraced House Prices to Rise by 5%, Experts Say | IQI  

Terraced house prices in Malaysia are expected to rise by 5% in 2025 due to steady demand and limited supply, according to property experts.  Juwai IQI Partner and CEO of Irhamy Valuers International, Irhamy Ahmad MRICS, terraced houses are expected to outperform other property types, continuing the positive trend seen in 2023. Terraced houses are likely to outperform other house types in 2025, just as they did in 2023.” Irhamy AhmadHe also pointed out that the terraced house price index experienced a slight rise of 1.1% from Q2 2023 to Q2 2024, whereas the previous year recorded a more significant increase of 3.7%.  This was the largest price growth compared to other house types, exceeding high rises at 3.6%, semi-detached houses at 2.3%, and detached houses at 1.4%. According to Irhamy, urbanization and the strong appeal of landed properties are driving this growth, especially in key urban areas.  However, despite their strong growth, terraced houses remain more affordable, with an average price of RM453,343, compared to semi-detached houses (RM718,599) and detached houses (RM643,387). Analysts highlight that this segment benefits from sustained buyer interest, making it resilient to market fluctuations. Juwai IQI was featured in Business Today and Dagang News.   Juwai IQI is the world-renowned property company that provides insights on property, locally and globally.Click below to get more expert property insights from our blog!MORE INSIGHTS

Trump’s Return: A New Chapter for Malaysia-China-US Trade Relations | IQI   Trump’s Return: A New Chapter for Malaysia-China-US Trade Relations | IQI  

Donald Trump's return to the U.S. presidency has sparked significant discussions about its impact on Malaysia-China relations and their ties with the U.S., especially amid ongoing global trade tensions. With Trump's administration likely to maintain or intensify protectionist policies and tariffs targeting China, Malaysia stands to benefit indirectly.  The "China Plus One" strategy—where companies diversify operations outside of China—could see Malaysia attracting more investments from both Chinese and global firms.  According to Kashif Ansari, Group CEO of real estate firm Juwai IQI, who told This Week in Asia, “The US election results will drive new growth in Chinese business investment in Malaysia and South-East Asia.” A recent Juwai IQI report found that Malaysia and neighbouring countries have also received significant investment so far this year in sectors such as automotive, real estate, and semiconductors, as Chinese capital shifts away from G7 economies to Asia. The report also noted that nearly all Chinese investments so far this year have gone into building new facilities, marking a significant shift from pre-pandemic trends.  This strongly suggests that Chinese investors are increasingly eyeing other Asian countries, particularly Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam, especially in industrial real estate, manufacturing, and electronics sectors, as the country offers a strategic location and cost-effective infrastructure.  They’re setting up operations here, hiring local talent, and establishing key production facilities in Malaysia."Kashif Ansari On the other hand, Malaysia's exports, particularly in electronics and machinery, might simultaneously gain traction as U.S. firms look to source goods outside China.  However, uncertainties surrounding heightened tariffs and potential trade barriers could also challenge global trade, impacting Malaysia's export volumes to both China and the U.S.  This duality highlights the complex nature of the trade landscape under a Trump presidency.  At the same time, Chinese investors face a mixed outlook in the U.S. due to rising geopolitical tensions and stricter investment regulations.  This could drive some to consider Malaysia as a safer investment destination. Meanwhile, Trump's energy policies and their potential to lower global oil prices could also affect Malaysia's exports of mineral fuels, creating further challenges. Overall, Trump's presidency presents both opportunities and risks for Malaysia as it navigates its relationships with China and the U.S.  While Malaysia can leverage its position as a regional hub, the uncertainty of global trade dynamics underscores the need for strategic economic planning. Juwai IQI was featured in South China Morning Post and The Star.  Juwai IQI is the world-renowned property company that provides insights on property, locally and globally.Click below to get more expert property insights from our blog!MORE INSIGHTS

Sabah’s Housing Boom: How It Became More Than Just ‘Tourism Spot’  Sabah’s Housing Boom: How It Became More Than Just ‘Tourism Spot’ 

This article includes perspectives from IQI real estate negotiators; Vincy Lim from Tawau and David Leong from Kota Kinabalu, providing valuable insights into the primary property interests of investors in Sabah.If a country were to have a favourite child, Sabah would be Malaysia’s golden child.  Located on the island of Borneo in Malaysia, the state is known for its natural beauty, rich culture, and economic potential.  In recent years, the property market in Sabah has witnessed dynamic growth, particularly in key cities and hotspots like Kota Kinabalu and Tawau.   Not to mention, there’s an influx of international investors, particularly from China, who are purchasing land to develop hotels and resorts.  Hence every year, the Malaysia government would allocate over millions of ringgits to develop Sabah and Sarawak economic infrastructure projects.   And this tradition continues with 2025 Budget Malaysia tabling revealing RM6.7 billion to be allocated under Sabah, focusing on essential infrastructure such as roads, electricity, and clean water.   So besides being a top tourist destination, what else does Sabah have to offer?   Above all, what gives buyers, investors, and tourists the confidence to choose this state? Table of contentsSabah Property Insight   Different Types of Housing in Sabah   First Time Homebuyers Incentive  Investment Potential in Sabah   Sabah as Tourism Destination  The Beauty of its Nature  Local Festivals  Second-Home Purchases  Sabah’s Economic Development  Pan-Borneo Highway  Conclusion  Sabah Property Insight  Different Types of Housing in Sabah  According to Vincy Lim, Tawau serves as one of the regions in Sabah where affordable housing schemes are a major focus.  The Rumah Mesra Rakyat and PR1MA programs have become popular among middle-to-low-income families due to their affordability.  These schemes typically offer homes priced below RM 250,000, with prices depending on income levels, family size, and location.   However, for those looking for larger landed properties, the prices are much higher.  If you opt for private sectors, the price for landed terraces typically starts at RM 800,000 and above. While Semi-detached homes range between RM 1.3 million to RM 1.4 million. Types of Housing in Tawau Prices Affordable Housing Schemes (Rumah Mesra Rakyat, PR1MA and more) Starting from RM 250, 000  *Depending on income levels  Private Sectors – Landed Terrace  RM 800, 000 >> Private Sectors – Semi Detached  RM 1.3 million – RM 1.4 million As for Kota Kinabalu, David Leong mentioned that the capital city of Sabah, is a bustling urban center with a diverse range of properties, from luxurious condominiums to landed homes and commercial real estate.  And unlike Tawau, Kota Kinabalu (KK) has a larger urban population and a greater demand for both landed properties and high-rise condominiums.  Landed homes in KK can be quite expensive, with prices reaching up to RM 1.5 million for larger properties in desirable areas.  On the other hand, condominiums in the city typically range from RM 1.2 million to RM 1.5 million for units between 1,200 and 1,500 sq ft.  Types of Housing in Kota Kinabalu Prices Affordable Housing Schemes (Rumah Mesra Rakyat, PR1MA and more) Starting from RM 250, 000  *Depending on income levels  Private Sectors – Landed Terrace  RM 1.5 million Private Sectors – Semi Detached  RM 1.2 million – RM 1.5 million These condominiums are particularly popular for Airbnb rentals, as KK’s tourism sector continues to grow.” David LeongFirst Time Homebuyers Incentive  During the 2025 Budget tabling, the government also highlighted their strong commitment of RM5.93 billion for housing initiatives, suggesting a major investment in making homes more accessible for all Malaysians. This includes first-time home buyers who can get up to RM7,000 tax break when buying residential properties that cost up to RM500,000. Families are the primary applicants for affordable housing schemes, which offer a great opportunity for residents to own homes at subsidized prices.” Vincy LimInvestment Potential in Sabah  As for investment opportunities, Samporna is the best spot to invest in Sabah.  The town is famous for its proximity to Sipadan, a world-renowned diving destination.  In Semporna, rental prices for properties in prime tourist locations can range from RM 5,000 to RM 10,000 per month, reflecting the high demand due to the area's popularity among tourists.  For this, investors often start Airbnb businesses to attract tourists who prefer the flexibility of renting a property instead of staying in costly hotels.  Furthermore, the expansion of Tawau Airport is expected to further stimulate tourism and property development in Semporna, making it an even more attractive location for real estate investors. The investment market in Semporna is geared towards the tourism industry, with many new hotels being built.” Vincy LimOver the past few years, there has been an influx of both local and international investors, particularly from China, who are purchasing land to develop hotels and resorts. As of September 2024, Sabah’s Chief Minister, Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor revealed that the state’s economic ties with China were driven by strong trade, investment, and collaborative projects across sectors.  This includes hospitality like hotels and beach homes to turn into villas. Additionally, Watervillas and properties on the nearby islands are also increasingly sought after by high-end investors.  Sabah as Tourism Destination The Beauty of its Nature  The pristine beaches, lush rainforests, and lively culture make it a favourite spot for those who love nature, crave adventure, or appreciate cultural experiences.  The expansion of the tourism industry in Sabah has led to a significant increase in demand for commercial properties, especially those located close to major tourist attractions. Vincy recommends Kundasang as the prime location for relocation or investment in Sabah, particularly for those interested in mountain areas. Situated in the highlands of the Ranau, Kundasang boasts a tranquil and cool climate, making it an ideal retreat from the tropical heat.  The town provides stunning views of Mount Kinabalu, the tallest mountain in Southeast Asia, and it's refreshing mountainous climate offers a welcome escape from the heat and humidity.” Vincy LimLocal Festivals  Its local culture also plays a role in shaping the real estate market. One of the key cultural events is the Harvest Festival (also known as the Kaamatan Festival), which mainly targets local visitors.  Traditional events, such as the Rekata Lebah, are also part of the region's rich cultural heritage.  These major tourism contributors directly contribute to Sabah's economy through visitor spending on accommodation, food, transportation, shopping, and activities. As it also helps the industry create employment opportunities in various sectors, including hospitality, transportation, retail, and entertainment.    These festivals not only attract tourists but also promote cultural exchange and foster a sense of community.” David LeongSecond-Home Purchases As mentioned earlier, Sabah is a popular destination for both local and international property investors.  Though KK is a well-known area in Sabah, the lively city can be challenging for those looking to connect with nature.  Instead, many nature lovers and investors from Sarawak, Brunei, Taiwan, Korea, and China are keen on purchasing second homes in beautiful locations such as Manukan and Sapi islands, as well as the cooler highlands of Kundasang and Danum Valley. Sabah’s Economic Development  Pan-Borneo Highway The Pan-Borneo Highway, which gained the likes and support of both locals and tourists, has now entered its 1B Phase, according to reports. This will make access to the city from Brunei easier and potentially drive further economic growth.  The highway stretches around 2,000 kilometers, linking the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak, as well as Brunei.  The highway has facilitated cross-border engagements, improving transport, trade, and tourism in the area. It enables Bruneian investors to explore opportunities in Sabah’s property market and vice versa. Conclusion  To wrap it up, Sabah's real estate market offers a range of opportunities for both local and international investors.  With its affordable housing schemes and tourism attraction, the region provides great potential for those looking to enter the property market at an affordable price point.  And with its developing and diverse property landscape, the opportunities in high-end condominiums, landed homes, and commercial real estate also arises.  As more buyers capitalise on these offerings, the demand for residential properties in Sabah is likely to rise in the coming years. This positions Sabah as a vibrant and promising destination for property investors. Based in Tawau, Vincy Lim has years of experience in real estate and has recently been recognised as IQI Top Subsales Performers for the Tawau area.
