Hi,

I have a situation here. The individual title to my late father's property is missing. No one knows whether it has been collected or transferred to his name. The property has been fully paid in 1990. So, I did a search at KL Land Office and it shows that DBKL is the owner. This is strata individual title. Why is it in DBKL's name and not my father's name? Tried to call DBKL to ask about this but they're not sure of what I'm talking about. Tried to call KL Land Office but no one picks up. What can i do to make his name appear on the title or transfer it to my name?

Thanks in advance for your help and advises!

Bank is Public Finance. They said that they have no issue with this as the title has been given to the lawyer office. Assessment receipts are under my father's name. No outstanding so far.

Oh my. We're in the same boat. Good luck to you!

aiyooo.. was hoping that i don't have to appoint lawyer to settle this..

In the title itself on page 3, under "Rekod Kepunyaan Urusniaga dan Perkara-perkara lain yang melibatkan hakmilik" it is stated

Datuk Bandar Kuala Lumpur
Tingkat 25, Bangunan Dewan Bandaraya,
Jalan Raja Laut,
50350 Kuala Lumpur

stamp and signed (don't know who's signature it belongs to)

No other information than that.

Is it the same case with you @familyfirst ?

Thanks! I need all the luck that I can get. Hopefully this settles before the new developer proceed with the redevelopment project (if reached 75% majority).

okay



where can i check the history besides doing the search?

called the lawyer. they said that they only keep the documents that is related to that S&P for 7 years only. So there is no way for sure that they remember what happened to the documents. So they advise me to do the title search. That's when i found out that it has DBKL's name


well, i will try to contact the lawyer that handles the S&P and ask them what to do next. thanks.

will check the S&P tonite and get back to you guys.

Hi, from the documents that we have, it shows that my late father has paid everything including the lawyer fee, stamp duty, etc. couldn't remember whether the title transfer settles before my father's passing or after my father's passing. called the S&P lawyer but they said they have no documents to refer to as they have destroy everything after 7 years of keeping those documents. not sure whether they tried to contact him at the old address (the place doesn't exist anymore) but we didn't receive any letters from them at the current address either. Everything happens when I was in kindergarden/primary school and this thing was never discussed to us. We have been living in that house until recently there's a proposal to redevelop this area.

hoho.. you have given me a very good idea.. will try to go public with this issue and raise awareness to people to check their own property especially if it's old one.. thanks!

Okay. Here's the latest update. It turns out that the property has not yet transferred to my father's name. After some research, managed to track down the Developer (luckily still in business) and ask them about the original strata title. After checking, it's with them! For now, they have advised me to go to JUPEM, jalan semarak (bahagian pusaka kecil - because the property is below 600k), have to fill in forms to appoint 'pentadbir' then with the documents, have to engage lawyer, etc.. still a long way to go.
