Yes, it can be transferred from Bumi to Non Bumi. But you must hire a good lawyer when submitting to land office.

Make sure you state that the seller in need of urgent money.[U]

Ask seller to submit a letter to land office saying he needs money urgently

If lawyer is stupid and not successful after first submission, then appeal another time.

It just takes longer than non bumi sell to non bumi.


Put this condition in your S & P,

if bank auction the unit or cannot transfer to your name, then you have the right to get back the 10% deposit.

As long as it is in S&P, then no need to worry.

You can also pay more than 10% (eg. 30%) to lawyer to cover up the outstanding 1 year loan and you pay the rest upon successful transfer of name.

Ask lawyer to pay to the bank on seller behalf.

That should prevent the bank from auctioning the house while you wait for consent to transfer.

Actually is the seller need to submit the application. Actually I think for your case still have good chances to get the consent as the seller really in a deep shit to sell the house and he can use this strong reason by providing bank letter saying that he is in deep financial difficulty n need to sell off the property to pay the debt. Just tht very time consuming.

As for my case, we go through a proper way.

I see. I tot u went through cause u mention after a few months. I guess this is not my case. I'll see what can I negotiate for. Thanks man. Appreciate the effort in helping

I guess it's maybe in the last stage edi. So they demand for some money to hold.

Thanks for the insight bro. I think can discuss with lawyer to add in the clauses into the spa.

On seller submit a letter to land office. Do u mean that my lawyer will submit a letter for consent and the seller submit another letter to write on his case in need of money?

It took a very very long time to even get back my earnest deposit (2%) even the SnP is not signed... When you deal with agent, its not easy to get back the money even you have sufficient reason to back out. It was a real nightmare for me, so really, please be very careful when committing for something even if its just signing a booking form.

hi, can i buy a freehold non-bumi lot from a malay?
will it be easy to transfer the name?

thanks

Yes u can buy freehold non bumi lot from Malay a lot more easy since it is freehold so it does not require state consent and can be done within 3+1 month.
I assume u are Malaysian citizen n not foreigner

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes, I am Malaysian and my dad is worried that the name transfer will be a problem since he is a Malay, even if the unit is non-bumi lot. They say freehold, we do not need any approval from land office, right?

Thanks for the reply

i think it is hardly to avoid as about 50% houses in kv is leasehold...

leasehold transfer from bumi to nonbumi is doable. just need a little more time

omg so ngum dhum...

So long nobody talk about this topic.
Currently happen again in Pahang state.

Land title: non bumi
Sekatan: yes...as usual a an approval needed from pentabir tanah. (MB)
Current owner : Malay
Buyer: Chinese

As info i received....all same kind of application totally ignored. Meaning it just leave it there. He did not reject n in the mean time he not approve also.

So what is this....a revenge of BN loss in Federal .
