1) If they say free legal fees for SPA then yes, you pay nothing for that. With regard to the legal fees on the loan doc, you better check with them. Some developers absorb the fees if you take a loan from their panel banks. Some would not. Best to check with them as the policy differs from one developer to another.

2) The agreement is a standard format agreement based on the Schedule G or Schedule H agreement as provided for by statute. I have uploaded a copy of the Schedule G agreement in the earlier posts of this thread. Perhaps you can print it out and use it as a comparison with your SPA. However, I doubt if there would be any material difference from the standard agreement template as the developer can get into trouble if someone reports it to the authorities.

3) CF has nothing to do with individual title. It only has a bearing on when you can expect to get VP for your property. Individual title depends on the initiative and efficiency of the developer. Some developers even offer individual titles upon signing of the SPA. They offer it as part of the package to attract purchasers. It is very hard to estimate. Some get it done even during the launch of sales, while some developers drag their feet for years before eventually splashing the cash to apply for subdivision. Hopefully your developer has a good reputation. Some homework on the Internet to gauge their previous projects, if any, would be useful.

Good luck

With regard to your query if the lease will "start from 99year again" after subdivision, let me check on that and get back to you. Interesting question. 

Will revert with an answer but do give me time to climb the highest mountain and seek guidance from the ultimate sifu of sifus of sifus  

Sorry but I've never come across this kind of charge before, so I can't advise you. But if ask me honestly just pay RM500 to get it done again and keep it clean once and for all. 
1. Yes. It's not the developer's fault as the state authority has designated the land as leasehold.

2. Not necessarily. Do some research on the developer and see how their track record is. Some projects are launched with individual titles ready. Some take up to 20 years. Some can't get at all because developer wind-up before applying for individual titles.

3. It won't cost you a dime as the developer will apply and go through the whole process. You only sign the MOT when the title is out. And standby stamp duty, of course.

4. Nothing unusual. You would execute a deed of assignment, as opposed to a MOT. So you assign your rights over the property to the purchaser. That would be an indication of your rights over the property, until indiv title is issued.

Nothing. But when you sell, how to get letter of confirmation from developer if there's no developer? Problem la. 
I still hutang you an answer for this huh? 

Sorry la the sifu of sifus not yet get back to me on this. Need to push him for an answer. 

Don't have to worry about leasehold. It will be extended again and again and again. Or maybe even converted to freehold! 

ykl:



stamp duty on letter of offer & statutory declaration - 35
RM10 per document

land search - 60
RM30-50

bankruptcy search - 80
RM12/pax

purchased of loan document - 200
check with Bank to see actual price as it differs from RM100-200+.

printing,photocopy,fax,courier,telephone,postage charge- 100
transportation to stamp office,land office,developer, bank - 200
misc - 50
Total is RM350 which is quite high as you're appointing the same law firm to handle the SPA and for the SPA quote they would've charged you about the same - thus making it RM700 total.

But there's a reason why they mark everything up - because at the end of the day, the house always wins.

Hope you catch my drift. 
* If not, read the earlier posts of this thread. 

Good luck. 

Agree on fees first, then sign. Once you sign, how can you turn around and disagree with how much to pay them? It'll be too late by then. 

You better read my other post in relation to your legal fees. Sorry to say, but you're being conned right there as well.

If you do want to pose any further quotations next time please don't mention about discounts. That is between you and your lawyer and it ought to remain that way.

Cheers.

Bankruptcy search - RM12/pax - you can search online at Jabatan Insolvensi Malaysia website.
Search will be done on you and the proprietor (assuming that the developer does not own the land, and that the land belongs to an individual)

Company search - RM15/search - you can search online at SSM website
Search will be done on developer and proprietor (assuming that developer does not own the land, and that the land belongs to a company)
How can she say like that? Stamping is nominal RM10 and will be reflected on the agreement itself. For others there would be receipts.
Disbursements are for exact costs incurred by the lawyer on your behalf. Any excess (which means that the lawyer overcharged you) ought to be refunded.
1. Trust your lawyer
2. Choose another lawyer whom you can trust; OR
3. Do it yourself and trust yourself, of course.
