what kind of fencing u need? for empty lot?
*

The cheapest kind - is it chain link fence - green plastic coated ? It's probably about 5 feet height. I just want to fence it up (if cheap) so I know my lot boundery as I intend to plant fruit trees, yam and ginger, etc in it. My neighbouring lots are all empty also, with lallang. I thought better grow something useful rather that waste time every now and then to clear the lallang.

It's way beyond my budget and anyway just need to fence up to mark my boundery scared I accidentally plant beyond my lot. Even at RM100 at meter, it's 4 x 32 meters = RM12,800.

The green plastic coated chain-linked fence, about 5 feet high that U usually see in guarded and gated housing estates - that should be the cheapest, right ? How much does this cost ? How far each post need to be apart ? Can I do it myself ?

That pic shows a security fence, which is much more expensive than chain link fence. For your purpose, chain link fence is sufficient.

Note: nowadays most gated and guarded estates use security fence (not chain link). Also, even security fence has different variations.

1. need to dig my get the foundation right (4 holes)
2. how will the pricing be?

Alternative suggestion welcomed =)

Time saving for consultants to review and revert to contractors, capture reality, accuracy, prevent conflict, reduce reworks in times of changes

Check with the land office. Under the National Land Code, only land under 'agriculture' categgory can cultivate corps, plus can build a dwelling house occupying less than 1/5 of the total area. If it is under 'building' category then can have the building. If the neighbouring lots are bunglows, then it is likely that the remaining lands are under the 'building' category. Usually an owner would want the biggest real estate possible, so it is likely that it will be built to the set-back line. This will leave little space for planting, which you may grow corps.

These are security fencing, but not really secured because a wire cutter can easily cut them. Then there is a anti-cut and anti-climb fencing, which is basically the same thing with lots more wire so the fingers and cutters cannot fit into the gaps, and of course much more expensive. In your case, just normal chain-link or chicken wire will suffice.

The land is square lot of 105 feet by 105 feet, so after building a house, still plenty of land to plant all sorts of things. Since fruit trees take few years to bear fruit, just let them grow tall and few years later only build a house in time to harvest the fruits.

Quick one,

Landed house, single story end-lot - talking about the house entry (the door, not the main gate).

Usually there is one each on the front, your main entrance into the house and one at the back (the one facing the back lorong).

I understand there is a need for 2 entry/exit point because in case of emergency got better chances of escaping or if 1 entry point is blocked off.

Can I relocate the rear door to the side of the house instead ? So it no longer facing the back lorong. As below:
Does it break any law ?

Do consider of direct air flow circulation. That's why most houses designed by architects have opening opposite each other.

You have two options
1. wait until it is finish, and if they are unable to deliver vacant possession on the date after 36 months after you signed your SPA, you can claim liquidated damages (LD) per day at 10% per annum of the purchase price, until you take vacant possession

2. pursuant to section 8A of Housing Development Act, you may terminate your S&P and get full refund of all payments made (you may need to prove the construction site stopped work for 6 months)

Yes, my current firm's accountant graduated in accounts, work in an electrical firm, doing Autocad and submission, then proceeded into Civil consulting firm while doing part time ACCA. Now she's working as an individual accountant, doing checking of drawing before submission, tax audit, while pursuing her CPA. Nothing is impossible if you have the drive to learn smile.gif

P/s she's a girl so it makes it even more amusing
