The time taken to complete the transaction is usually 3 to 4 months. The government has the right to acquire the freehold properties for Public Projects.

  Here are some pros and cons of purchasing a leasehold property: Pros: 1. Cheaper house prices! Assuming two properties are exactly identical where one is freehold and the other is leasehold, then the price of the leasehold property would be lower simply because the market prefers freehold properties. “I would say it would vary anywhere between 10% and 20% if both are brand-new properties with full lease. As the lease gets shorter, the gap widens up,”  2. Higher rental yields Assuming that a leasehold property is cheaper than a freehold one, the lower entry cost could mean higher rental yields although one also has to take into consideration other factors such as maintenance cost and the location. Cons: 1. Property loses value as lease shortens One disadvantage of owning a leasehold property is that its value starts to depreciate as it gets closer to the expiry of the lease. 2. Tougher financing options In fact, banks will usually stipulate a certain minimum number of years r...
