Can the renovation work done by Indonesian (got sign black and white with them) counted in the deductions of expenses for the gain tax? How about those receipts of buying material like cement, paint, wood, tiles and etc?

Thanks.

We prepared the detail of renovation work and put in the Indonesian particular like passport, work permit, etc and both party signed after the money was paid. Can this be use instead of receipt? Not sure now can get back the Indonesian guy or not coz the renovation done last year.

Yup, normally how much is the charger for the lawyer to submit the CKHT 1a form for seller for join name (2 person)? Is it a standard charge? The lawyer charge me rm400 but another said only rm300??? Is it advisable to submit ourself or by lawyer?


Thanks.

THanks a alot for your info.

If we submit ourselves, do we need to pay the tax during submission at the counter? The lawyer said if we didn't let her do, then she will hold the 2% until receive the notification from gov either the tax is clear or no tax then only refund back to us (take about 6 months).

if the house is more than 5 years, is the lawyer still need to hold the 2%?
if the house is less than 5 years, is the lawyer will pay the tax from the 2% for us even we submit ourselves? Or we need to pay ourselve first than claim back the 2%?

A bit confuse....

For the charges, mean if the property is under 2 persons name, then the charges will be rm300x2 - RM600. Wow....is expensive man....I got 2 house is sold, mean have to pay rm1200???

yup. one house is more than 5 years, and another one is about 4 years.

Sorry, one more question, is the penalty charge by bank (last time is Zero moving cost when refinance) due to early settlement can be included in the tax deduction?

Thanks.

Yup. I am selling 2 houses at the same time. One more than 5 years and another one not (actually I bought over from my sister more than 5 years but I only did the s&p only on 2007 when refinancing )

So if I 'tumpang' the lawyer from the 2 different buyers, then need to pay rm300 x 2 x 2.......Therefore thinking to do it myself.....hopefully is not so hard.

Thanks bro, you help me a lot. ^.^

Think discharge part will let the lawyer to handle it, they quote me 900 to 1k. Can do it ourself meh? Haih....really hope just can ask one party to handle it for me....but heard ppl said if I ask my own lawyer to do it will charge even more expensive. Any Idea? Or u can help ppl to do this all?

oh...okok...then what is the steps to do the discharge myself? Hard?

ooo....think better let the lawyer to do it... Anyways, thinks a lot ya. Really appreciate your help, bro. ^.^ Tqvm!
