House Buyer Dilemma in TMP (Phase 3)

This is an email I received today which is of a concern to all house buyers in Malaysia, something we should be aware of and be prepared in the future when dealing with any developer to ask the right questions to ensure that your rights as a house buyer is not easily trampled on and taken for granted and that you have all bases covered before signing any SPA.

Please read and if you know of more such home owners in Taman Mutiara Puchong facing the same predicament then please forward your email to mytmpcommittee@gmail.com as it is logical for these home buyers to get together and get the right representation to allow their grouses be heard by the proper authority that can assist in resolving this thorny issue.

EMAIL EXTRACT OF A VERY CONCERNED HOME BUYER IN TAMAN MUTIARA PUCHONG

Just to bring up an issue regarding my current difficult situation of purchasing the TMP unit. 6 months ago, I sign my SPA in the show room office and yet till now I still not getting my key to renovate my house. When I check with the developer (Interpile), they told me that it is because land office holding the consent of transfer. When I ask them what is the reason where land office holds the approval, they told me they have no idea.

Due to the frustration I personally go to land office to find out the issue, the officer told me that it is because that Interpile does not fulfil the land office requirement – Building Low Cost Houses and this was told to Interpile few months ago. Later when I call Interpile regarding this matter, they told me that they knew this issue and already settle (don’t know how they settle). I also find out that there are about 20 units same situation as me (some have sign SPA more than 9 months ago)

Now I get caught in the middle whereby one end hold the approval and the another end told me the issue has settle. Recently Interpile try to pursue me to change loan financier so that the money can disburse to them without the approval of the consent. I told them I have no problem to change my banker as long as on their end can guarantee the approval of the consent within 1 or 2 years. But at the end they told me they cannot promise me anything, they can only release the key for me to renovate and stay upon banker release the disbursement but no guarantee on the consent approval (which mean money disburse to them but legally the house still not belong to me).

I believe some of the existing resident or owner of TMP house face the same problem (money disburse to developer but till now the title still not charge to owner or banker). Therefore I would like to use your blog to gather some of these owners (who may concern on their title or charge of property) to discuss further.

By the way, I also one of your frequent reader for Voice of TMP.

Thanks and Regards,
