Lay Of The Land

At the end of 2017, the National Property Information Centre (Napic) confirmed that there was a slowdown in the property market, and recent reports from real estate consultancy firm Rahim & Co International and property consultant Knight Frank Malaysia indicate that the property market – especially the luxury market – is expected to be sluggish this year.
