Haha... i really LOL when i saw this...
Since they so kind to follow what 'some' purchaser want,
actually i think all the purchaser also want more and more discount,
can developer give more discount or law firm not to charge any fees for SPA and LA??

Honestly I have been helping my sis in law looking a house since 3-5 months.
Initially my current subsales agent pass me and telling me it is a Japan developer product.

We are quite interested but until I come across this thread and I reconfirm with the agent, he is really being honest to us and telling that there is a cemetery near by. Hence i guess we will look for alternative choice since there are many launching on the way.

I do have coll stay in tddi near cemetery, no complain so far and he likes the quiet environment. Well I guess it is up to personal preference.

But we are unsure the unit is gona be own stay or rent out and this is her first home, so better buy "safe".

Just read and laugh it off.

Everyone knows its ridiculous

Just realized something. Overlooked it when I first read the post.

How true is this line :

Generally, since the Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA) is a standard agreement under Schedule H of the HOUSING DEVELOPMENT (CONTROL AND LICENSING) REGULATIONS 1989, many purchasers do not want to, and do not have to initial all of the pages.

Unless the purchaser is a newbie or know next to nothing, will purchaser actually not want to initialize on all pages of a proper S&P ???

Lawyers stopping u from initial on each page, that is NOT okay coz u have the rights. But it's not compulsory to initial each page la. Anyway, even if you initial every page, did u guys actually read every word of it or just trust the lawyers explanation?

The signed 'draft' SPA is good to go if purchaser doesn't need to initial each page, right? So technically it's not a 'draft' la...From what I see, Developer is inviting purchaser to initial on each page (if purchaser wants to) since this issue is blown out of proportion.

Exactly! If it is a draft, why must purchasers sign on the last page? If its just a draft, they should just email or provide a copy to the purchaser and not tell them to purposely make a trip there to sign & settle the balance down payment. That's the main issue!

I agree with you Mr. thecaterpillar, if nobody make noise I bet they won't bother releasing those statements.
Just keep quiet and pretend.

So my question, is it a draft? Seems like what they sign is legally binded whether they want to initial on each page or not.

My purchaser friends are told that this coming weekend, the 'final' S&P will be out.
Contents will be different compared to the one he signed few weeks back.

As I said, if its a draft why get purchasers to sign? from my shallow understanding, drafts are just rough versions of the final document (pending finalization,tweaking,touching up etc)

the lawyers told my friends that even though they are allowed to initialize on each page of the 'draft' S&P, come this 7th and 14th of November they will have to do the same on the final document.

so if you say whatever they sign initially is 'legally binded', then what is going to happen to the 'S&P' that they will be signing this coming weekend?

contents will not be the same, that's for sure.

so now you have two copies of S&P? choose one to stamp?

ini macam?

Greetings,

Marimo Land Sdn. Bhd. (MLSB)'s solicitors Pretam, Nor & Co. would like to share the following :-

Generally, since the Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA) is a standard agreement under Schedule H of the HOUSING DEVELOPMENT (CONTROL AND LICENSING) REGULATIONS 1989, many purchasers do not want to, and do not have to initial all of the pages.

However, if there is a purchaser who wishes to sign all of the pages, then arrangements can be made with the purchaser's lawyers to assist him in signing all of the pages.

Thank you.

Wah, if like what u said of course cannot la... but their statement below says otherwise wohhh.

I AM A BUYER.
I read all the post from the 1st tread aka 133 pages till the 2nd tread 27 pages .
I find it very informative and I really thank everyone for their pros and cons.
I stop my cheque and call the lawyer to explain and aslo to advise the lawyer not to bank in my cheque.
I ask the lawyer why they did not tell us to initial every single page . answer was , too busy and not enuf time.
OK . I told the lawyer that I want to initial on each and eevry page of the SPA before I issue another cheque.
The lawyer is very accomodating and agree to accept my explanations.
I also told the SA that i want to my initials on each and every page n also a copy for my keeping .
SA agree and she did call and told me to go next week to initial it.
both of them agree to what I sugest .
