Having a say in the way we pay
01/09/2004 MB-HPROP
FOR the past two decades, the subject of `build then sell', or rather a
better system of purchasing homes from housing developers, has been debated
and studied, but it has still remained a voluntary concept. Surely the time
is ripe for the Government to seriously address the hazards, risks and
uncertainties experienced by home purchasers in Malaysia. While it may be
difficult for all developers to move straight into the `build-then-sell'
system, the National House Buyers Association is proposing a variant to the
`buying-off-the-plan' concept. With this variant (or the 10:90 concept),
house buyers place a 10% down payment with the developer upon the signing of
the sales and purchase agreement. This money serves as a confirmation of
sales to enable the developer to obtain the necessary financing. It,
however, must be placed in an escrow account and cannot be touched by the
developer. The buyer only has to pay the remaining 90% of the purchase price
to the developer upon completion of the property.

MENGIKUT perjanjian jual-beli rumah yang dimeterai antara pembeli dan

membayar wang pendahuluan 10 peratus daripada harga rumah, mereka
dikehendaki pula membayar ansuran mengikut kadar tahap pembinaan kediaman
itu. Bagaimanapun, bukan semua pembeli bernasib baik iaitu mampu memasuki
rumah yang mereka beli dalam jangka masa dijanjikan. Masalah beratus ribu
unit rumah kos rendah dan sederhana yang terbengkalai sebenarnya hanyalah
sebahagian daripada penyakit projek pembinaan gagal disiapkan pemaju. Turut
sama dibiarkan dengan hanya 10 hingga 70 peratus siap adalah projek besar
seperti kompleks Plaza Rakyat di tengah ibu kota dan ibu pejabat polis.

THE voices of hope are getting louder and it appears to be a matter of

market commentators already seem to have found the solution - it was a

CHOOSING to buy a house from a developer or a real estate agent can be quite

aside your fears and trepidation long enough to think clearly, and you'll

There is no wrong or right answer. Using either developers and agents come
with a healthy set of pros and cons that you should consider before making a
commitment. As always, ask yourself: "What do I want?"

IT is not uncommon to come across cases where buyers are given vacant

(CF). At the National House Buyers Association, this is just one of the many
situations unfortunate buyers have faced. And it doesn't end there. After
receiving their keys, buyers then have to spend the next 18 months chasing
developers to comply with any breaches they may have caused and rectify
defects. Until CFs are available, they are not able to move into their
houses, even though the full purchase price has been disbursed and they have
started servicing their bank loans.
