LEGAL ISSUES
Legal issues are complex procedures of paper work signing. Of course you have to understand every aspect before you put down your signature. There are a few things you should keep in mind:
  • You should make your payment to developers through your own solicitor or lawful owner as he/she will protect your interests.
  • You must read and fully understand the terms and conditions stated in the Sale and Purchase Agreement. Consult your solicitor if you want to amend anything before you sign the Sale and Purchase Agreement.
  • Your solicitor should be fully responsible for the purchase of your house, and do not share the same solicitor with the seller, as a conflict of interest may occur.
Things that your solicitor should get:
  • Photocopies of purchaser's and seller's addresses, telephone numbers, and etc for identification.
  • Original copy of Sale and Purchase Agreement.
  • Deed of Assignment.
  • Search on the master title of the house to assure that the seller is the rightful owner.
 
LEGAL FEES
Effective from January 1, 1992, legal fees are standardized by the Solicitors’ Remuneration Order 1991. There are two types of calculation for legal fees:

First Schedule (Sale and Transfer): Lawyer fees are determined by value of the house in the Sale and Purchase Agreement.

 House value  Buyer  Seller
 1st RM100,000.00  1% of house value (Minimum RM200)  1% of house value (Minimum RM200)
 Next RM4.9 million  0.5% of house value  0.5% of house value
 Thereafter  0.25% of house value  0.25% of house value

Fourth Schedule (Charges, Debentures and Security Loan Documents) Lawyer fees are determined by the loan amount for the above documentation.

 House value  Buyer  Seller
 1st RM100,000.00  1% of house value (Minimum RM200)  1% of house value (Minimum RM200)
 Next RM4.9 million  0.5% of house value  0.5% of house value
 Thereafter  0.25% of house value  0.25% of house value

**Fees subject to 5% government tax.
