“Buy now or pay more later.”
Sabah property prices are expected to increase 15–30% due to rising construction and logistics costs according to Shareda president Datuk Johnny Wong Chen Yee. For serious homebuyers and investors, this may be the best window to secure a property before prices climb further.
With Sabah’s development growth continuing steadily, waiting could mean higher entry costs, higher loan commitments, and reduced choices in the market.
A timely reminder for first home buyers, investors, and those still sitting on the fence — opportunities favour those who act early.
Sabah Housing and Real Estate Developers Association (Shareda) president Datuk Johnny Wong Chen Yee has urged the public to consider buying homes now, warning that property prices are expected to rise 15 to 30 per cent due to escalating construction and logistics costs.
