Because this is not categorized as new launching units under HDA, hence, the developer might have using tweak the conditions in SPA. Because Built Then Sell is like a Sub Sale, the defect liability period actually can be excluded since it is not governed by HDA anymore. It is like Bulk and Barrel Sale. You get what you see the actual product. Same like sub sale or developer unit or second hand unit. No Defect Liability Period is required. Meaning that Developer is not keen to provide you the DLP when luring you to buy this BTS product.

Same like my apartment, a developer unit. I visit the actual unit, Bulk and Barrel Sale with no Defect Liability Period. But come with cheap cheap price that i manage to get more than 17% rebate.

BTW, from the photo, you are buying a used and old unit condition. It is totally unfit for occupancy. Please take necessary action against the Architect for issuing Certificate of Compliance and Completion (CCC) for VP that the unit is still in unfit condition. Especially the wall painting and defective door panel.

it is just a steel rod welded with a steel ball at tip with a wooden handle, nothing special

You can see i already note down all the problem. That why i wonder my S&P didn't mention about DLP & they just allow us to submit ONE time defect form only. Other than that no allow but i don't care just inform them what need repair. For example yesterday i just seen the TNB meter door don't have lockset. Each time heavy wind the door will automatic open it. Funny right.

If you want a peace of mind, u always can source a qualified building inspector for report. http://www.canaanbuildinginspector.com/

Can't do anythings already since already submit defect form. Just now have inform wanna add another defect list they already bla bla bla.

your developer very actions. At least mine say " Please feel free to submit. You got 2 years warranty period"

Yup. I feel too.

his case is different from your standard new unit. Thats why developer can bully him. But Petlu gor got a lot valuable lesson from this, good for his future purchase

Peri Kor, you are right. This is really heart brake lesson I facing now. Today have call incharge person. He told me very busy no time go check my house what defect need do & will call me when he go my house.

how i wish i had stumbled on this thread earlier. would have saved me a whole lot of trouble.

never too late to learn, u still got you next coming purchase.

Now i keep chasing him when can finish done defect.

Hi guys, I just got the key for my new house and was asked to list all the defects. I want to ask is this consider a defect?




thanks for your help!

Yes. It is not properly do. they need to clean up on it or remove the plaster. I think they patch out . Probably got holes . Look very adward with white plaster and tiles (dark color). Just file as defect and see how they solve it

just include first see what developer can do.

Thanks ericlaiys and petlu28.. I put it in my complain list and the staff said it should be done properly and not like that. One more thing, is it normal for timber flooring upstairs squeaking and feels hollow? The staff said it is because they put sponge underneath.

solid timber floor wont squeak, only cheap and thin laminated artificial timber floor will squeak.

Today have go check my new house. They already done crack tiles & wall but some wall didn't touch up properly. Then seen those hollow tiles they didn't change. That guy told me nowaday all developer also didn't change hollow tiles. He say within 1 years if the tiles pull out just inform them they will come fix it. Peri Kor is it true?

I have just rented a house which was handed over a few months ago. The towkay bought the house as investment and turned out did not bother much about the condition. So my question, does the tenant have a right to ask the developer to fix the broken gate, broken lock etc? The owner is taking too long to respond and paying the movers alone was already 4k. So I really don't want to antagonise the owner over small niggling things.

only owner can report defect
