Late last month, my lawyer told me that I had to pay for the difference of the loan agreement fee, because the bank only pays 2% of the loan amount. I have made my payment by transferring directly to the lawyer's clients' account. I have faxed and emailed the transfer copy to the lawyer, and the lawyer has confirmed received. I told them to forward me an official receipt for that payment. They haven't do so, and the property transaction has now completed.

In my last email to them, I have also asked them again to send me the official receipt and any outstanding copies of documents that I ought to have. As usual, there is no respond from them.

My question is: is that payment receipt important? (In my opinion, it can be important because it is one of the expenses that I incurred in the purchase of the property, and in case in the future, I want to dispose the property, the amount can be deducted as a cost)

important or not.. receipt is 1 of the proof if anything happen. And for sure they must issue you receipt for any amount u paid. even a single cent.

but i still retaining the original ATM slip with me (which I did transferring); I think I will wait one more week, if still didn't get, go up to their office....

u really bad luck met such bad lawyer firm

Go to your lawyer office and get the receipts. Trust me it is very important and keep it well.

I just got it from them (their office), they didn't send it out at all....yes, I am sure it is important...thanks people

wanna ask how much is your loan (I supposed it's a ZEC loan)?

That means for ZEC loan, bank can only cover legal fee till 2% of the total loan amount?

the loan amount is little....it is just about 65% of the selling price of the property...therefore, not enough to cover
