1) It is mentioned that:
"No pets, livestock or any other animals whatsoever may be kept in the said Parcel or any part of the said Building. Vendor reserves the right to remove and dispose as it sees fit any such pets, livestocks or animals found within the said Parcel or the said Building and any expenses incurred will be charged to and paid by the Purchase."
Question: I love fishes, be it marine or freshwater fishes, these are not cats or dogs or panda bears and I'm not planning to rear tiger sharks or baby whales in my house, so do i technically own the right to define my fishes are not PET, LIVESTOCK or ANY OTHER ANIMALS ???
This is definitely not part of any S&P. It's your deed of mutual covenants and it governs your rights and limitations with regards to living in the community.
Either you agree with it or you move out…

2) It is mentioned that:
"For the purpose of maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the said Building, the Purchase shall not without the prior written approval of the Vendor, and where applicable, the Appropriate Authority do, permit or suffer any of the following to be done: damage or deface the exterior walls doors or windows of the said Parcel or effect any change to the facade of the said Parcel, the said Building and/or the Common Property or any part thereof;..."
Question: The unit I bought is at Ground Floor (not 1st floor, really ground), and I need some privacy, I don't understand why should I not have the right to remove the existing windows and replace all of them with Double Glazing Windows?? The provided window is the normal ram type windows. OK, I know we need Vendor's consent, but will they approve it or what?
If you managed to get written permission from the building management to replace your window then you can.
If management rejects your application then you're stuck with buying curtainsÂ

3) It is mentioned somewhere on the Renovations and Alterations sections:
"Where the proposed Works have been approved in writing by the Vendor and, where applicable, the Appropriate Authority, the Purchaser shall nevertheless not commence the Works until he has: (i) submitted to the Vendor for a work schedule; and (ii) paid to the Vendor a deposit in such sum as may be stipulated by the Vendor in its absolute discretion as security for the strict compliance and performance of the provisions of such guidelines and rules and regulations as may be stipulated by the Vendor at its absolute discretion from time to time and any loss, damage, injury or caused by the Works..."
Question: This should be fair but what is the standard market rate for this deposit? Ranging from how much to how much?
Deposit could range from RM200 to RM500 from my personal experience.
It's only a deposit just pay them and collect back once you're done renovating.
Make sure your contractor don't leave a mess or damage common property or your neighbour's unit.
