Hi all wanted to ask, does JMB have authority to set amount for car park rental in the condo? Recently in my condo, JMB had an AGM and came out with circular saying amount to rent car park is RM150 per month for common car park area which is quite low..

I was planning to rent around RM250 for my car park but the lessee said only 150 and if I were to quote more he won't accept and report me to JMB..like is JMB even authorised to do this? Parking belongs to owner right so owner should set a price and not JMB?

Anyone facing similar issues in other condos?

Personal car park..in my condo those above certain floor got basement car park....renter is also owner there

JMB can rent their common/visitor parking how much they like. You can rent your own parking how much you like. JMB cant dictate how much you can rent your own parking…

If your tenant doesnt wanna pay RM250, can go rent from management office directly for RM150.

Dont worry, your tenant has no power over your own parking lot rental price.

If your tenant threaten to report you I will suggest you to increase the rental to RM300 to challenge him …

the RM150 is what u paid, how much u rent out is your issue

but the place i park my car RM50/month already people just park side of the road
RM250...who's renting from you?

Sorry i don’t understand i thought you said is your parking.

If it is your parking why is in common area but not your  own parking bay?

Do you mean you sub-lease condo common/visitor parking to your tenant for profit?

I see. Maybe these are commercial properties like SOVO.
Cause residential properties the parking bays are in SNP and also in the strata allotment

JMB can set the price for the parking lots the JMB own they dont have any say on the properties others own.

just same as the rental to your unit, de fuuu JMB gonna say anything.

the tenant / leswee can report to the jmb all they want, but JMB aint got no power there

Parking spot is a privilege of unit owner, not a right.
Read back strata act

yup. well that depends if the House Rules says no short term rent. if the House rules says yes / silent on this short term yes, JMB can't prevent. and that more thing, the local COB also important, if there's a blanket ban on hsort term rentals, like in Penang, of course no amount of yes in the House Rules can go against the Local Law.

the key issue here is, whether JMB have the power to set the rental price for individually owned lots, be it parking or unit. and the answer is a big NO.

JMB can set whatever amount , but at the end of the day the owner is the one  leasing out.

i think you're a bit too optimistic to set it at rm250/parking . any demand o not?

unless the potential renter dunno about JMB rules then the price might be ok. but its a different story if the potential renter know about this . will tekan u lo reduce price .

end of the day u need to go back AGM and discuss back to come out with a win win situation

Looks quite general and vague, though I doubt they will interfere in commercial matters like regulation how much u supposed to rent the parking out. If that is the case u can use this clause to even regulate how much ppl rent their house out. Airbdb is a separate issue as that is no longer rental, it should be under the hotel industry already. So far no case or jmb regulating parking lots owned by the owner as accessory parcel on the rental price though.
