If you want to invest in overseas properties, the last thing you should do is to compare their prices with those of similar real estate in Singapore or assume that such investments are as safe as those here.
Doing so will give you a false assurance that you are bound to make money because the deals are cheaper, and nothing will go wrong just because the sellers tell you so.
