Spent whole day trying to reach someone from SP Setia for details and finally got this:
For those who doesn't have enough money for downpayment and planning to withdraw from EPF, you may inform the lawyer/SA during signing and they will get it done quickly for you.
You can then go to EPF and submit request for the withdraw and once obtained, you may pay it to Ecohill.
Please note you need to bring the EPF statement as proof of you having the money in the account.
I didn't manage to ask if we need to pay partial or not, but I will prepare my cheque book as well, so I can pay partially on the spot.
Hope this helps.
Hahaha, robert mate, i thought i already post this on Tuesday after i found out from the executive that is assigned to your case; the name card that is attached to the green form where all the panel bankers contact are listed.
They have clarified this; all buyers who are withdrawing EPF 2 to pay the DP MUST bring the LATEST EPF statement; i.e.: November signing SPA - so, October 2013 EPF statement; as I am sure plenty of us now using the September 2013 statement for loan purposes as PROOF of having the said funds in the account and pay only the variance between 10% and Booking Fee + EPF Account 2.
For those who have not gotten the latest EPF, can go to EPF office or better if go to RHB (Call RHB contact centre) and find out which branch has the EPF machine - Plaza Damas - Damansara have it and register for the pin so that you can access online anytime anywhere. This will allow you to keep tabs not only for this purpose but your EPF transaction on monthly basis and query should there be discrepancies.
