KUALA LUMPUR: Real estate agent Henry Butcher Malaysia Sdn Bhd unveiled its revamped “new look and feel” website at a gala dinner last Friday in conjunction with its 20th anniversary.

Henry Butcher Malaysia Sdn Bhd director Long Tian Chek said that the new website (www.henrybutcher.com.my) was easier to use, more informative and had a more polished feel to it.

“We have also uploaded our upcoming auctions listing so that you won’t miss out on value property buys,” Long said at the event.

Visitors to the website could also get updated news on various topics such as property reviews, articles and market snippets as well as media releases, exhibitions and seminars related to the real estate and property industry.

“The website will be constantly updated to keep you informed of our services, track records and contacts,” he said.

On the Malaysian property market, Henry Butcher Malaysia chairman Sukiman Kassim said 2007 started off on a positive note.

In addition to recent incentives already announced this year, the Government was expected to put forward new initiatives to promote Malaysia as a property investment hub to promote real estate investment trusts as well as to enhance the attractiveness of the Malaysia My Second Home programme,” he said.

According to Sukiman, the high-end property market in particular has enjoyed a noticeable surge in interest and has set “new benchmarks” in recent months.

“Condominiums in the Kuala Lumpur City Centre area, which were going for RM800 to RM1,000 per sq ft a year ago, have shot up to new price highs of RM1,100 to RM2,000 per sq ft,” he said.

He added that compared to Singapore and Bangkok, luxury residential properties in Kuala Lumpur’s prime locations were value for money.

Meanwhile, Henry Butcher Malaysian Ventures Sdn Bhd chairman Datuk Seri Kamal Hashim said that moving forward, Henry Butcher planned to expand its international network but would still retain its client-centric outlook.
