Should I buy or rent a home in Malacca?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Malacca, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Malacca can be a great investment. The city is known for its rich cultural heritage and vibrant atmosphere, making it an attractive place to live. The cost of living in Malacca is relatively low compared to other cities in Malaysia, making it an affordable option for those looking to purchase a home. Additionally, the city offers a variety of housing options, from traditional terraced houses to modern apartments. Renting a home in Malacca is also an option, and can be a great way to experience the city without the commitment of buying a home. Renting can also be a more affordable option for those who are not ready to commit to a long-term purchase," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Malacca, Malaysia.
