Property sector on recovery path


“We also expect Bank Negara to stay accommodative to enable sustainable economic recovery and maintain the record-low overnight policy rate (OPR) of 1.75% until end-2021. Any change in the OPR this year will be cut(s) rather than hike(s), we believe. These will help to entice the potential property buyers into the market due to the cheaper costs for property purchases, ” the Maybank IB added.

PETALING JAYA: The property sector is poised for recovery in 2021, driven by a better economic outlook and historically low interest rate environment as well as pent-up demand.

Maybank IB Research expects buying sentiment on properties to improve in anticipation of a better economic outlook this year.
