KUALA LUMPUR: The number of overhang properties is expected to remain high in 2021 based on income level, locations and prices, according to Rahim & Co International Sdn Bhd. Its research director Sulaiman Saheh referred to Rahim & Co's Property Market Review 2020/2021 which showed that three states, Johor, Selangor and Kuala Lumpur recorded the highest numbers of overhang properties at 33,000 units, 8,700 units and 7,800 units respectively. Other states such as Perak and Penang also posted higher numbers at around 4,000 units each. Speaking to reporters after the release of the report today, Sulaiman said properties within the city or urban areas would see a strong demand and likely reduce the number of overhang property if prices were adjusted.
