you see this  sad.gif

the definition of "residential property" is like this..

“residential property” means a house, a condominium unit, an apartment or a flat purchased or obtained solely to be used as a dwelling house.

my service apartment under HDA schedule H, only property used as dwelling house can get HDA status right..

if following the order/law, i should be able to get the mot exemption, but the problem is, surat akuan as attached above terus exclude soho & service apartment from claming the exemption  sad.gif

First of all, thanks for pointing out this issue. Your post helped me clarifying my previous doubt.

My case is slightly different: I bought a unit of service apartment (under cons) from MahSing and signed the SPA in late 2018. Since it's closed to VP date in a year time, I started double-checking on MOT thingy just to be prepared with all the necessary costs. I was told by MahSing that my purchase was done before the HOC campaign took place in early 2019, so I have to bear all the MOT and loan stamp costs. However, based on my research and your post, I find that my purchase in late 2018 falls under Stamp Duty (Remission) Order 2016 and Stamp Duty (Remission) (No 2) Order 2016, which means a service apartment is still included for exemption. Did I understand it correctly? (still in the process of getting clarifications from layer).
