The TS has since clarified that it's the view that the unit is facing. The view details may not have been specified in the S&P and TS didn't check the developer layout plan to confirm the viewing direction before signing as he trusted the agent's words in a whatapps conversation.

chill lah. The TS is heartbroken looking at the responses and may choose not to respond. It's an expensive mistake to have trusted his agent.

S&P don't specify view one.

There is nothing TS can do about it.

But in all respects, usually agent don't get it wrong when it comes to view. I bought one unit 30 floors want to face a certain mountain view, the agent did tell me, that next to it another developer were going to build a 10 storey apartment next to it. So it didn't hinge my view.

In TS's case, I am not sure how to avoid such an incident.

I did went to the construction site, to double confirm the view. However the entrance to it was too far to double check the view. I had to rely on the 3-D model, the agent was showing to me.

Yes, nowadays hard to find projects where you make a profit flipping upon VP. Most likely you will sell at a loss or even rent at a "loss". Best option is to stay there for a few years and think of it as your stepping stone property to another better one. Once you repay enough of your principal loan and allow inflation to kick in, you may sell at breakeven or even a small profit.

S&P doesn't specify view but definitely the floorplan with the compass must be there. Can only blame themselves for trusting the agent too much and not doing own study for due diligence

I just found out that the unit we bought is totally the wrong unit. When the time I signed all the legal, loan document in our our mind we are signing the correct unit. But when the time I collect my key and later found out that the unit we bought is totally opposite of what we have requested from the time we purchase it.

As a buyer, what can we do to protect ourself? Its too late to change unit d coz all the other unit we like are already fully booked. Felt like being cheated by the sales person.

Looking for advise here.

When you sign your booking form, SNP and loan agreement no check the unit number kah?
Now take key ready, cannot do anything, live with it and enjoy your new house biggrin.gif

You are lucky to get an honest agent who tell you got another project in future. Potential will block your view.
Many young agent now just want to close the deal only.
After you sign everything and get key, you call may be no response or support from them too.
New buyer need careful with agent word and promise. Anything goes wrong, can only blame own self no do homework and checking.

Sell or rent out the unit.
Rent or buy again another project to suit your view or environment requirement.
If all also cannot, just take it as a blessing to have a new house.
Highway and forest reserve not too bad too. Cooling with all the trees.

Very easily, swiftly, all they need to say is:

The agent made a mistake, a genuine mistake. But everything was provided to you in the sales kit. The unit number is correct. The floor plan, layout, everything was provided to you. The developer is not at fault.

Don't know how to look at floor plan?
Don't know how to look at building layout?
Don't know how to check the compass?
Don't know how to look at maps?

You signed the S&P, you are responsible. People these days treat signing document like play sand. As if you have no responsibility.

You can trust in God, everything else bring data.
People give you data, you never read never check.
Who you want to blame? Blame yourself lah.

"Save yourself the trouble and just sell it and consider as lesson learned. Your wife already having mental breakdown due to this you want to spend additional (a lot more) money for a court case and prolong her angony"

My reply text was in concurrence to the above context.

Are you in opinion spending more money seeking legal redress and prolonging the wife agony is a better option?

i have learn a similar expensive lesson too, which results in "NEVER" 100% trust any sales agent but take it with a grain of salt and do some homework.

nothing much can be done since everything as per SPA. either bear with it for few yrs to get another house or sell it at a lost.
