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,

Security Enhancement Exercise Phase 2

The image posted above is the security tag for each household to be displayed prominently and to be placed on the gate. The security tag is only for prompt service fee payee in Taman Mutiara Puchong.

This is a necessary step and truly unavoidable as such a measure will ensure fairness to all the prompt paying residents in Taman Mutiara Puchong. The security personnel will only provide their full service for households displaying such a tag when the exercise is completed. This exercise will be executed soon and will be completed before the end of October 2008. The management office is currently making the necessary preparation to ensure smooth execution and tabulating the necessary data for the purpose of such an exercise.

When the exercise kicks off, volunteers from the RA will visit households whom are prompt payee with the security tags and will attached these tags accordingly, a form will have to be filled providing the management office with the latest data pertaining to the number of cars and their respective registration and further checks on number of access cards etc will be carried out. This is to ensure that the data collected will be used to update the database currently in hand to have the latest and most updated information to ensure that the management office do have in hand the necessary information to carry out their duties to the upmost.

House owners will have to acknowledge the receipt of these tags accordingly when these visits are made to ensure minimum abuse of these tags. These tags are provided free of charge.

The recent access card barring exercise have been successful in ensuring that the majority of the residents in TMP act in a responsible manner and to maintain the security level consistent with a gated and guarded community. There are still a lot more to be desired but small steps are being taken to ensure that the welfare and well being of all law abiding residents will be protected and fairness plus firmness exercised on those that are irresponsible and ignorant.

It is important to note that the majority of incidents of residents not complying with the silk screening of the access cards and car sticker exchange are mainly from tenants due to the fact that their landlords are not making any effort to comply with the terms and conditions stipulated in the DMC they signed during the purchase of the property. Tenants are advised to do the following as observed in many cases elsewhere:

1. Immediately discuss the matter with your landlord and to arrange for the landlord to comply with the silk screening exercise and to purchase the necessary additional access cards for your use but do note that the landlord have the right to impose a deposit fee for these cards and refundable upon expiry of the tenancy provided access cards in good working condition.
2. If the said landlord is not available and not convenient for them to carry out the exercise then please arrange by mutually agreeing that the cost of the service fee be deducted from the next rental payment or mutually agree on a win win formula. Receipts are issued hence there is documentary proof if any disagreement arise.

Other measures the management company will put in place will be a notice board in TMPCC listing all defaulters in TMP with appropriate remarks to highlight status and action taken accordingly. Currently many legal notices have been served already to errant owners and awaiting response before further action is taken.

All residents owners and those owners who rent out their unit whom have neglected their duty by defaulting should really make a conscientious effort to be more caring and responsible to ensure the long term sustainability of the community in TMP.

Selfishness is never a good quality and one should have a broader mindset as more is always achieved when in a "TEAM" - Together Everybody Achieves More".
