Hi Dario,

Appreciate your reply regarding below query:

1. For a subsale leasehold condo with Master title, the S&P lawyer has included the stamp duty for Transfer or Deed of Assignment.
Isn't the stamp duty payable only when the strata title is out?
If I pay now, what happens if I sell the condo later when the strata title is still not out yet?
Does it mean the money I've paid for the stamp duty is wasted?

2. For a subsale leasehold condo with Master title, who pays for the application for state consent?
Buyer or Vendor? Vendor did not appoint any lawyer.

Thank you!

Many thanks Dario.

One more question - I was told for the state consent in KL, there are 2 types - consent to transfer (fees paid by vendor) and consent to charge (fees paid by buyer). Is this correct?

Hi Dario,

I was told effective Jan 2012, a sub sale leasehold condo with master title no longer require state consent.
State consent is only required if the condo has a strata title. Is this true?

Thanks.

Hi Dario, this is in KL. Thanks!

Hi Dario, you missed my question.
Just to add the condo is in K.L.
Thanks.
