the-chateau-units

The houses have spacious 20-foot gardens at the front, forming a piece of green heaven that is private, serene and reinvigorating. It is the perfect venue for hosting social events, whether a boisterous BBQ or an intimate dinner, or for moments of quiet contemplation with the nature.

A gated community with plenty of green areas

Let loose and fully immerse yourself in all that The Chateau has to offer. Watch the young ones roam and explore nature with absolute freedom. Raise and nurture a family without fear and uncertainties. The Chateau is a strata-titled property, a gated and guarded community, and has a multi-tier security system. This will keep you and your loved ones safe, every day and every night.

Best of all, parents can let their children play their hearts’ out in the gardens, as the space is well-buffered from the main road to keep the young ones safely away from moving vehicles.

Every home in The Chateau sits on an elevated platform that aims to keep traffic noises away from the living areas, while allowing smoother vehicular flow, as well as providing a safer walking experience for pedestrians.

This elevation also allows for the incorporation of a garage at the lower ground level of each unit

The Chateau sits on 127 acres of undulating terrain, 35% of which has been transformed into lush, verdant parkland and tranquil private gardens. The natural contours of the land have been preserved and filled with indigenous trees and plants, creating bountiful habitats for local wildlife. Intricately designed gazebos, gracefully dotted around the development, are perfect venues from which to enjoy the serene and relaxing companionship of Mother Nature.

4 Asian Countries with No Property Tax

asian-countries-no-property-tax

Property taxes can have a huge impact on overseas investors’ buying decisions. With the growing interest in Asian markets, and especially developing markets, we need to keep in mind that tax rates can change fast.

Not only do developing countries change property taxes to attract more foreign capital or boost their economies. We also see sudden changes and the introduction of new taxes in places like Hong Kong, Singapore, and Korea.

This is mainly to avoid speculation, cool down the markets, and protect local citizens.

Interestingly, there are some countries that don’t charge any annual property tax to locals, or to foreigners for that matter. In other countries, the property tax is almost negligible.

Hong Kong has grown from being a small trading hub to become one of the top three financial centres over a decade. Many foreigners consider it to be a safe haven for investments and the place to be in business.

Almost 40% of China’s foreign trade is routed through Hong Kong, which has left China with the notion that it can’t compete with Hong Kong. Instead, increasing the connectivity and collaboration with the mainland has become the most viable plan.

Even if prices reach record high levels, Hong Kong continues to be an attractive spot for overseas investors. It doesn’t surprise me, as it has some of the most efficient systems and lowest taxes in the world.

Yet, before you engage in Hong Kong’s property market, it’s important that you learn about the market, the buying process, prices, taxes, and more.

Japan is one of the most popular investment destinations for international corporations and individual property buyers. Being one of a few developed countries in APAC, it’s not strange.

Foreigners find Japan as safe and ownership regulations are both transparent and favourable, which is not often the case in many other APAC countries, especially in Southeast Asia.

Not to forget, Japan is very livable and many decide to either settle here, or to buy lifestyle property for holiday or rental purposes.

However, before you buy real estate in Japan, it’s important that you understand the property market outlook, how high property taxes are, if you can get a property loans as a foreigner, about property prices, and more.

If Indonesia decides to change its property ownership regulations, the market is set to boom. Before you buy property, it’s important that you get your feet wet and learn about the market, property prices, taxes, and more.
