Re: Less well known developments : Engaging a civil engineer for 2nd opinion..

Dear All,

Thanks for the many sincere contributions to this thread which had proven to be an invaluable resource for me.
I am eyeing an inter Ter unit at NI selling at $600K. But agent said that the sale may be blocked if the state valuation is less than $500K but in order to secure my interest I will still need to pay my 1-3% earnest deposit. If the state approval is rejected, can I still get the money back? Shouldnt the price be based on the sale price? anyone got similar experience?
 
Thanks for creating thisbinvaluable forum. Can I ask if the $500K cut off based on sale price? I am considering a subsale NI unit at $600K. But agent warned that sale may not go thru because state valuation may be below $500k. Is it true?

Actual valuations by registered valuers is usually different from buying / asking price which is normally higher.
Best way to find out is to ask the bank to value it first to have an indication before plunging in.

State Consent should be between rm10K-11K

Not so easy to TT RM in to your MY account.
There is a rm10K daily limit for foreigners, that limits your deposits to your account so you may have to do it over a few days for your 10%.
So best to start early.
Banks like Hong Leong allow SG customers to open cheque account and it will take a few days for cheque book to be ready.
Or you can also open cheque account with bank that you are getting loan from.

Why not just buy a banker's demand draft in Singapore payable to the name of the developer in Malaysia? Easy and trouble free.
