towards the same.
According to HDA, a housing development should only be “engaged in, carried on,
PropertyGuru
undertaken or caused to be undertaken” by a property developer who has a
license that was issued in accordance to the Act.
When you buy your home from a developer, chances are that you haven’t seen the
bricks and mortar yet, but have only seen words on documents. It's the norm in
Malaysia for developers to sell their units during the construction phase.
There might be a chance that you were promised 'heaven on earth' during the
purchase by the developer, but your completed home turns out to be delayed AND
an utter disappointment.
This is when the HDA will have your back! Basically, the Act ensures developers

delivering it as the marketing materials have stated.

It's stated under the Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Regulation
1989 (HDR) that no advertisement or sale can be made by any licensed housing
developer without first getting the APDL.
This agreement basically covers the who, what, when, where, why, and how of the
purchase. It's extremely important for you to read everything properly, and
understand it, before signing the paper. Because once you've signed, there's no
turning back!

Schedules I and J materialised after the amendments made to the HDR in 2007.

of signing of the SPA with the developer, while the balance 90% is to be paid after
completion of the property.
