Hi, i have a question for my new upcoming development.
Can we take any legal actions if the developer doesn't build a proposed mall/ bridge which stated on the marketing brochure and website upon vacant possession or giving a clear timeline to the residents?
Thanks

Hi TS,
I am planning to build a house on family-owned land. I know there's not much details but...
1) Is RM300k to RM350k enough to build a modern design 2-storey bungalow large enough to house a family with 4 kids?
2) What would be the cheapest way to legally build this house in terms of choosing the cheapest process? My thoughts are:
i) Engage an architecture firm to design a house up to Bill of Quantity (BoQ) stage (on a side-note: is this ethical? and if I am upfront about it what would the architecture firm think?) ii) Tender out the BoQ to 3 contractors
3) What is the average timeline I am looking at from engaging an architectural firm to receiving the house keys? Is it 1.5 to 2 years?
4) Let's say right now it's only us as a couple with no kids. So to reduce construction cost we decide to partially build our home first, with the idea to complete the other sections/rooms at a later stage as we get more financially stable and/or more kids. Is this advisable, if yes, what way would you recommend the 1st phase of the bungalow to be built? My friend said it is more economical to expand horizontally rather than vertically in the future.

any of you recently build a private residential house on an agriculture land? this is possible right (without converting the agri land to residential land). Note that this agri land is 100 pts in size. and the house should only take up 6 to 8 points only.
will the bank approve the loan to me? note the market value of the land is approximately 1.5m as it is agri land at 100 points.

QUOTE(iwubpreve @ Oct 17 2014, 01:30 PM) hey guys, u may ask me anything about construction industry and i'll try my best to answer all ur question.  u may join this group too https://t.me/joinchat/GnpHTxbi4CFMfOC6SSWSggConstruction Industry is so complex and actually affect various party namely, House buyer / Purchaser Developer Consultant (Architect, Engineer and etc) Main Contractor Subcontractor / Vendor / Supplier Local Authority (DBKL, BOMBA, SYABAS, TNB, TELEKOM, POS, JKKP, IWK and etc.) u can also ask me about construction law. I know a lot abt that too  So, I have almost no clue about construction process. However, since I am planning to buy a house in the near future, I feel like I should know a little bit about the process so I don't get duped (per se). So, after you sign the SPA, what are the developer's next steps in construction? I've heard of a Schedule. But, I forgot what Schedule was that and also what entails the Schedule. Would really appreciate your thoughts and help!
