MALAYSIA PROPERTY EXPO..

ABOUT MAPEX..

In the aftermath of the Asian Financial Crisis in the late 1998, the Real Estate and Housing Developers' Association (REHDA, then known as the Housing Developer's Association (HDA) highlighted to the Former Prime Minister of Malaysia, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamed of the huge overhang in the property market and urged for immediate measures to be taken to address the critical problem. after several rounds of urgent dialogues and discussions between the Government announced special incentives to help alleviate in the property overhang. Such incentives include the release of bumiputera units, stamp duty exceptions as weel as higher margin of financing by financial institutions, At the same time, REHDA was also exhorted to organize a series of property exhibitions in conjunction with the incentives, Hence, the Home Ownership Campaign I (HOC I) was conceived.

Following the success of HOC I in reducing property overhang, the Government granted further incentives in 1999 to help bolster the property sector, Again, REHDA was called upon to organize another Home Ownership Campaign (HOC I) in 1999, which was also well received..

Arising from the two HOC, REHDA saw the need to organize such exhibitions on an annual basis to provide a convenient forum for developers to exhibit properties of various types and for homebuyers to view the latest and available launches and property stock all under one roof, Since then, REHDA has organised 6 national level property exhibitions (Known as the Malaysian Property Exposition MAPEX) in the Klang Valley and more then 50 state level exhibitions throughout the nation..

Over the years, MAPEX has received overwhelming responses from developers, industry players, NGO's and government departments with an average participation of more than 100 developers and 10 financial institutions in each of the exhibitions. The HOC and MAPEX exhibitions are typically held over period of 3 to 4 days and have become the signature property event each year, recording thousands of transacted properties..

MAPEX has since helped many Malaysian homebuyers to purchase their dream homes at affordable prices. It has helped generate demand for housing and ensure sustained growth of the housing and in Property Industry..
