Hi Guys, wonder if anyone else face this issue with their apartment building management? I own this apartment for around 5 years which i rent out to tenants. So 2 years ago a new company took over building management office and instead of helping, they have just been giving me problems with their unreasonable SOP and heavy handed fine.

Some of the unreasonable things they did,

1. Ban and dont allow one my property agent from entering the building, when i ask for reason, they refuse to give and says it is private and confidential.

2. Everyone who want to enter have to submit particulars 1 day in advance, including potential tenants coming for viewing (who want to go through all the trouble for viewing??? how am i going to get my tenants?)

3. If you owe them money, even if its is only RM1 or 10 cents for more than 14 days, they will deactivate your access card and charge RM50 to reactivate it.

4. I request to speak to the residence committee regarding all these, but they just ignore my request.

5. Deny me entry to the last AGM saying the name i use in the form is not the same as in the owner list, even though i use that name in all my email with them and the name field in the form doesnt indicate it must be same as owner record.

6. My tenant throw some cupboard boxes near the bin and they issue fine RM200 and cancel all my access card, so need to pay for new access card and the fine. The fine is just so unreasonable for such offense, not to mention why the need to cancel access card?


So what are my options?

1. Wait for next AGM and try to propose a change the company managing the building management office? I also dont know if the residence committees are aware of all this or they just dont care.

2. Get a lawyer? but what can the lawyer do? not the mention the cost will be more than its worth?

3. Or just sell the bloody apartment and be done with it?

Property is in JB, but I rather not share the name as it might affect my ability to sell it later

Might be an option if i am in the country but i am stuck in singapore and cant go back with the border close. Hard to manage all these if i am not physically there, not to mention all the time having to spend on these. Which again brings back to having to hire a lawyer to manage this
