I recently had breakfast with a Hong Kong property agent who has been marketing Malaysian real estate in Hong Kong and China for the past 10 years. He started by plying beach resort properties at Batu Ferringhi on Penang island in 2007, and then moved to the capital city of Kuala Lumpur, where projects in Kuala Lumpur City Centre and Mont Kiara were popular. More recently, though, he has been active in Iskandar Malaysia in the southern state of Johor, where he comes every other month, leading groups of mainland Chinese and Hong Kong buyers.
