Dear iang666, yes there is no mention of any of these fees in any of the contracts. But as unit buyers we are held against the wall because we do not really have much of choice if we want the apartment on time. Did you get the calculation of the 5550 title registration fee? We are supposed to pay only 1% as buyers and 1% should be paid by the sellers as per the law, but who cares. In my case I was asked to pay 2% entirely. The building owner staff says that if we want to dispute the charges we may go ahead, but what's the point, any delay will affect only the buyers. The sellers have anyway got their 100%.
So, in which building have you got your apartment? Who is the owner? When is the handover? Lets discuss this if you want to; my cell no is: 050-6588029
Regards,
Suhail.

Affection Plan Charges 850.00
Facilitation & Liasion Fees 3,000.00
Title Registration Fees 5,550.00
Land Processing Fees 120.00
Delayed Payment Fees 1,353.00
Is anyone aware of these fees and are they entitled to them, as far as I can see there is no mention of them in the contract
I have also asked them about compensation as handover is over one year late and the contract only covers for delay up to 12 months.
I have told them that I will not pay until they give me full justification and show me where I agreed to these charges but I would appreciate any comments from anyone who has had the same demands.
