Home buyers of Endora, a formerly abandoned residential project in Ijok, Kuala Selangor, were surprised that they are being charged RM5,000 in miscellaneous fees after the project’ rehabilitation, reported The Star.
Selvaraj S. Balaguru and his wife Lothermary Singarayar said they received a letter citing the name of a law firm based in Section 13 in Shah Alam to which they should pay the amount, but the firm failed to give them a breakdown of the fees.
“Lothermary and I were happy when we found out that the housing project in Taman Alam Perdana in Ijok, which was abandoned eight years ago, was completed following the rehabilitation of the project by the state government through Mentri Besar Incorporated (MBI),” he said.
However, Selvaraj claimed that the Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim had not mentioned of these fees during three meetings at the Stadium Malawati.
The letter advised them “to give the cash and that the Sales and Purchase Agreement would be handed to us for the bank to process the ownership of the house. If we do not give the RM5,000, the bank will not be able to restructure the loan for the delay in compensation, which comes to RM30,000,” he explained.
Selvaraj said many buyers face the same situation as theirs and they hope Khalid would help them sort this out. As such, he has sought help from the Selangor MCA Public Complaints Bureau chief Datuk Theng Book.
Theng responded and urged the MBI to explain the need to charge RM5,000, as it was unethical to collect the fees that were not previously announced.
