Hi guys

just want to confirm, if i have a cash of RM100k, and one of my house loan is still outstanding about RM80k.
my house condition is:
1) non bumi lot
2) leasehold
3) master strata - still pending for individual strata

Should i quickly settle off the loan?

or

Should i wait until master strata is converted to individual strata?

my concern is if later on i pay in full but developer never issued individual strata till the end

i get to know that there is a new strata regulation came into enforcement but that only applies to new purchase
for purchase made before the date of regulation imposed, it doesn't give any impact.
that is why i reluctant to pay in full since if its under bank, bank have their own lawyer to fight with
but if the property is under my name, i might have problem in long term to deal with this kind of thing.
it may cost me more just to fight to get the strata

Banks do not concern about the strata title is out or not.
They only concern about you paying the loan or not.

Banks won't chase the developer to do the strata title, as whether the property has been stratified or not doesn't make a difference to bank, as long as you are paying the loan.

If developer never stratify the property, whether it is bank own or personal own, both are same situation aka do not have no strata title.

The loan you have taken, you still need to pay in full one day, the consideration is about cashflow and loan interest aka from financial aspect only.

Leasehold, strata title or not have no implication on the issue whether to settle the loan or not

Property that does not have strata title after many years may have difficulties to get loan for new purchasers.
but in reality, many properties fall under this category, how can we avoid this?
8-10 yrs to get the strata title is normal is Klang valley.

the delay is to blame our loose enforcement, the irresponsible developers and residents.

Why i said resident also playing a part is many did ignore the notice by developers that when strata title is ready, they need to engage lawyer and paid a sum for the process.
Some developers are smart, they collect those fee upfront, but many residents/ purchaser also don't want to pay 1st....

Some are property flippers, want to sell the house, so drag for few years later only to direct transfer to new owner.

this is the mindset of malaysian.

If developer liquidated or no longer existing, owner will have difficulty to sell the property.

This is a risk many not aware off.

Buying a property cost hundred of thousand RM, and doesn't want to do the strata title (to save some lawyer fee and stamp duty), which may be ended worthless (unable to sell the property because of not having a strata title), which is something beyond my understanding... rclxub.gif
