Participating developers include those in the Real Estate &amp; Housing Developers&#8217; Association (Rehda) Malaysia, Sabah Housing and Real Estate Developers Association (Shareda), and Sarawak Housing and Real Estate Developers&#8217; Association (Sheda).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/stop-lending-to-people-who-cant-afford-homes-in-malaysia-thinktank\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>More: Stop lending to people who can\u2019t afford homes in Malaysia<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The government has also made available incentives for first home purchases, Lim revealed. Starter homes costing up to MYR300,000 are eligible for a stamp duty exemption on Memorandum of Transfer and loan agreement. Units priced between MYR300,000 and MYR500,000 are also eligible for the same stamp duty exemption, only limited to the first MYR300,000 of the home price, noted the <a

received a positive reception from the public as the stamp duty exemption incentives and discounts of at least 10 per cent were able to reduce the cost of home ownership especially for Malaysians who have never owned a house,\u201d said Guan Eng.<\/p>\n<p>The number of unsold homes in Malaysia stood at 2,313 units, with a value of MYR19.86 billion, in the fourth quarter of last year, according to the National Property Information Centre (Napic).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another six months of stamp duty exemptions and discounts for first-time home
