Join us in the re-shaping the property market in Indonesia

Information is the best currency in the modern business world. The right kind of information is crucial to decision making. The availability of the right kind of information affects the time required to make a decision.

I am certain that there will be more property transactions if the property buyers / investors can easily find the property they want to buy. These are busy people who has limited time to look around for the right property. As we know it too well, going around in Jakarta to do property inspections is very time consuming due to traffic, etc. If the buyer / investor can easily make the 'pre-selection' in our website which has thousands of listings, they can just pre-select the properties they want to inspect and call the property agent and do the inspection.

Since all the important information of the property was available in the website, most of the preliminary work has been done. I am quite certain that if the buyer care to make the site inspections, then he/she is quite serious to buy property. At this stage, the buyer will only have a few properties shortlisted. The next stage is negotiation and finally closing the deal. Of course, this sounds easier said than done, but believe me, at this stage the entire process of property transaction have been made easier both for the buyer and the property agent, because the important INFORMATION of the property was readily available in the website www.rumah123.com

Life without passion ?

What is life without passion ? A not so simple question and most of us live our life like a mechanical clockwork. One of the basic governing law of nature is the survival of the fittest. For those down in the food chain or (more realistically) in the society ladder, most time is spent just to survive. The struggle to survive keeps us busy and thus adrift from the brighter side of life, like sleeping on a hammock in your own spacious backyard with eyes half open, daydreaming with the gentle wind. We all gotta work, gotta eat, gotta feed the family, and survive on.

So how do you find passion in your quest to survive ? The answers will vary from one person to another, but for me as my experiences wisely tell me, FIND it in your worktime and enhance it after working hours with doing things that you like most. I love my work. Well it so happens that i am very fortunate in life that I get to own a company, in a business which I like most. I never felt that I had to go to work. Working in and for this company becomes my passion. Once it becomes your passion, the feeling of struggling to survive somewhat becomes insignificant and life seems to be more forgiving, i even dare say it's now enjoyable. Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of stress involved, believe you me when i say so. As in my case, stress is a small price to pay for my passion, my ambition and my dream.

To add icing on the cake, allow me to compliment a massively wonderful girl who has accepted my quest for my dream, love and understand me for who i am and we together are shaping our happy ending future. Needless to say, I love her more than I can ever fully explain or symbolize or romanticize. You guessed it, after working hours, my passion for life got enhanced, if not enlightened, by spending each relish moment with her. Peggy Clarissa, to you i owe my insanity and my longevity. You shall always have my unchallenged and dedicated love.

My love and my passion are my greatest arsenals in the never ending quest to survive.
I hope this little article can inspire the reader to live a passionate life.
