So good for investment but not so good for staying because of the daily jam in/out?

I am looking at the bungalow land lots for sale.
Are they too disconnected from the semi d and Terrance houses?

I am asking a question not making a statement.
If you cannot answer me then please shut up.

oh right! give this guy a medal! 
oh well you can just shut up flint-stone 

Did anyone receive the payment for the LAD for "Coral"?

bro, pm me your number again 
what is LAD?

"WCT aims to kick-start the development of 189.3 hectares of land in Sungai Buaya, Rawang into a township with a gross development value of RM1.5 billion next year."

Maybe from Saujana Rawang South Entrance (under construction) can reach this place!

No news so far....Anyone has their defect done and signed the form? How was the result after rectifying?

CF = check with Developer cos they usually have 1. otherwise, they cannot give u Key.
Cukai Tanah = u can check with developer. correct if i'm wrong. If it's under master title, developer has to pay for it. so, developer has a copy of it. once the title transferred to you, it is individual title and you can check it from Land Office (Pejabat Tanah & Galian Selangor).

Great news! Have you collected the access card?     

== maybe ur contractor has vast resources ler or can you ask if ur contractor has contractor friend to refer to?

i don't think guocoland will be able to make changes on the Water pressure. It's same concept as, you bought 1.3cc Myvi and later lodge complain to Perodua about lack of power. Need them to increase the power.  sorry... just comparison.

by . but some developer claimed it 1 month upon VP or during VP. if no mistake, Paramount @ Damai Residence did that.

That's a good option too! would you be able to pm me his contact no.? Guess I may need 1... 

Oh now I know. It's like this - our bank releases it to our S&P lawyer. They hold it in trust for the developer. Our S&P lawyer is also our developer's lawyer so it's like a "con" job. So it's considered the bank having released 100% of our loan.

If the loan amount is small,say RM200k the 5% is only RM5k so the lawyer won't earn so much interest. But they get 5% from so many buyers. That's why we dun have to pay the legal fees for signing the S&P for lots of projects I guess. Imagine if the loan amount is huge e.g RM1 million. The 5% is RM50k. And we're paying interest to the bank for that amount for that one year. Lawyers make far more from such funds held in trust than what they would charge for doing the S&P which is only drawn up once. They use the same S&P over and over again by just changing the buyer's details. In fact the same S&P can be used for many other projects by changing certain details only according to each project's specifications.

Lawyers make the most if they take on such commercial conveyancing compared to taking civil or criminal cases. The only thing is they must hook up with the developers. That's why in the event of a conflict our lawyer is also our developer's lawyer so you see the conflict of interest. They will always side with the developer who gives them the business bcs they make millions with each project. In order to save costs and hasten the process all buyers are encouraged (in fact they sirt of make it compulsory) to use the developer's lawyer and most of us use the same lawyer naturally bcs it saves us the legal fees. If the developer plays us out we will never win. Malaysian prop buyers are actually suckers bcs of the current system where developers are in control. Buyers should all gang up to employ their own lawyer. In the US I think buyers and sellers are not allowed to use the same lawyer bcs of conflict in interest.

Good reminder Lim. One way of dealing with this issue is to get the quotation from the plumber, file the quotation together with the complaint to Guocoland asking them to fix the issue, otherwise we can proceed with appointing our own plumber. this way it will not void our warranty. this is like any other rectification process of residential development.

thanks Bro! btw Coral neighbourhood is really busy lately. a lot of renovation works going on. more so most of the units extended both GF & 1F fully to the back, which is awesome. 

I think you're right to look at it from the other point of view. must hope that the developer does not get declared bankrupt,that's all. In MY there are endless possibilities of anything happening. the MACC should get a Grammy for 2013.

i'm not sure whether void or not. anyway, just 1 additional inlet and outlet on the existing piping. how long is the defect warranty? 12 months?

Demystifying the ‘as is where is’ basis
Posted on September 24, 2013 - Featured, Investment.
In property transactions, the term “as is where is” is a term or condition of a sale where the property is sold based on whatever condition it exists in, that the buyer accepts it “with all faults”, whether or not immediately apparent.

It is not an exclusive term for property transactions though it is probably more prevalent for the sale of property because the seller lets the purchaser decide on the purchase after inspecting the property. The purchaser must accept the property, with warts and all. The purchaser cannot use the condition of the property at the time of purchase as an excuse to cancel or rescind the purchase after the sale is concluded.

”As is where is” is usually seen in advertisements for completed properties in the secondary market and auctioned property.
For example, a secondary property may have defects which can only be detected later by a contractor or plumber, but the purchaser should inspect the property with these professionals’ advice before the transaction. Auctioned properties, meanwhile, can sometimes have previous owners “squatting” in them.

Even primary properties sold by housing developers which are completed but not issued a Certificate of Completion and Compliance may be sold under an ‘as is where is’ basis. Under such circumstances, the housing developer does not need to give any warranty to the purchases or make good any defect found on the property after the sale of the property.

If the property is not completed, and the property is a residential property governed by Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Act 1966, the purchaser is given two or three years’ warranty for the property: two years for landed residential property and three years for stratified or subdivided residential property.

If the property does not get a warranty, and is sold on an ‘as is where is’ basis, the purchaser can use whatever condition of the property as leverage while negotiation is underway. The purchaser can negotiate to pay less by pointing out the cost of repair for the property. That is why a purchaser should hire a contractor to give the property a once-over to ensure the purchaser is satisfied with the condition of the house. This also applies for completed property bought from a housing developer and auctioned property.
As for the seller, the concept of ‘as is where is’ becomes a defensive mechanism. Defending the asking price of the property will hinge on the concept of ‘as is where is’. The seller can claim that any defects on the property were already considered before the asking price was announced to the world. It is an like an announcement by the seller saying, “There is something wrong with this house but if you are willing to buy it at the price I am asking, let’s make a deal.”

As a conclusion, “as is where is” is not as simple as it seems. Nowhere else does the advice of caveat emptor or buyers beware be considered more than when a property is being sold “as is where is”.
