May I know if it is safe to send a picture of the photocopoy of my geran to potential buyers? It's my first time selling a property, and a man is asking me to send it to him. Will it cause any troubles?

Yeah this is also my concern. My father insists on showing to the guy who asks for the geran even though I've told him not to do so. I think I should just show him the replies here to stop him.

Normally is not an issue but is up to you. You can shade off one or two details (eg geran number) if you are worried but I dont see any purpose as gerans are public documents and can be easily obtain from the land office with a small payment albeit some inconvenience

You may 'worried' about his intention but at the same time he may also 'worried' if you are the owner.

He may also want to confirm the exact details b4 proceeding further.

As a seller, you should be concern who comes to view the property. He may turn out to be a robber. There is a reason why many appointed agents to handle a sale or rental. Not that agents can 100% avoid such incidents but they have ways to screen and minimise it.

I also agree with this, at least the first hand risk already got block by the agents.
