趋势：百万令吉以下小型住宅单位将供应过剩？
Knight Frank Malaysia研究与顾问部执行董事Judy Ong指出，政府早前宣布对RM100万以上公寓和服务式公寓等四大类房产的冻结令，将促使更多售价低于该水平的小型住宅单位出现。 她在文告中指出：“预料发展商会根据当前情况，来重新规划和评估本身的产品，也可能进一步押后项目的推介。虽然未来可能会出现供应过剩的风险，但我们相信会有更多售价低于RM100万的小型单位进入市场。” 无论如何，她预料政府的冻结令可让目前充满挑战的高档住宅房屋市场，能在今年缓一口气。 另一方面，随着房价和薪水之间的差距越来越大，Ong表示，买房能力依然是我国的一大问题，尤其是在首都和其他城市地区。 “房价自2010年以来就不断上升，且增速继续跑赢人民收入的上涨步伐，因而导致很多人一直追不上房价的涨幅。” 鉴于这个情况，加上自2012年开始逐步实行的打房政策，房地产市场的销量也因而持续下滑。 而为了解决销量疲弱和收入减少的问题，很多发展商都开始把目光投向可负担房屋项目。 在商用房产领域，Ong预料服务式和共用办公空间的需求会走高，归功于政府积极推动弹性工作文化的措施，将刺激科技新创公司和中小企业等行业采用这类办公空间。 至于传统办公空间，成熟地区和那些毗邻轻快铁和捷运等铁路网络的郊外地区，这类空间的需求会保持稳定。 同时，Tun Razak Exchange（TRX）的发展也会把需求带回吉隆坡的办公空间，且TRX捷运站是捷运第一和第二路线的两个交流站之一。吉隆坡又能提供媲美其他西方国家的机遇，加上交通基础建设和办公空间持续增加、多元语言能力和极具竞争力的经商成本等因素，都会为办公空间捎来佳音。 原文已在2017年12月21日刊登在EdgeProp.
