Hi, I am in the process of buying a landed house in Iskandar too with a view to retiring there in future. I am 38 years old and have 2 young children, currently earn about 150k a year. May consider semiretiring there in 8 years time when hopefully the RTS is up. Have a landed and MM in Singapore so depending more on rental income in future to sustain our retirement. Should have at least 5k passive income monthly to sustain our retirement in 18 years time when I am 56 years old.
I think more should look at retiring in iskandar with their big and cheaper landed houses, cheaper cars and cost of living and good exchsnge rate.
