    Just accept it and be happy. Even if u do not accept it, u still have to pay and be unhappy if u pay unwillingly. Point is, no need waste time and energy fighting this battle that u cannot win. Might as well spend your time and energy on house moving.
    Anyone have the information of the maintenance fee for treehouse and eco?

    I have attended the inaugural Strata Management Seminar as a council member of newly formed management corporation of other project. This Strata Management Seminar helps raise the awareness of the Building Maintenance and Strata Management Act (BMSMA) regulatory framework, the roles and responsibilities of council members as well as the functions of managing agents. Through the seminar, I learn that we as the owners pay more attention at our own unit defects than all the foresque facilities and surrounding work that may require the developer to fix it during this one year period. I hope we all would gain better understanding of the provisions in the BMSMA, which would be useful in helping us to manage and maintain the estate.

    It is and should be very obvious that residence should first pay attention to the defects in their own unit. What for start hunting for defects in the surroundings when have not yet finish checking/fixing your own unit? After you are satisfied with your unit, then proceed with the surroundings (unless something obvious or life-threatening such as a giant pothole right beside the lift). You have only a limited amount of time. Use it wisely.

    Hi! For those who's already moved in, do you have information of residences shuttle bus schedule? If it's already in place yet? Which mrt station is it going? How often does it go? If it's still not there then when would it be in place for us?

    Much appreciated !

    Did anyone realise that there isn't any sheltered walkway from guard house to blocks? Residents or visitors will be caught in the rain if they are coming by bus and don't have umbrella!
    I was stuck at the guard house for abt. 30 mins because of heavy rain this afternoon.

    I think it make sense to start in March 2015 when more people have actually moved in. Some projects don't even have shuttle bus at all.

    Right.....point is I heard from developer. Key collection will be completed before Xmas! March would be rather very late in our case.

    The guard house and the carpark are on the same street level. If I am not wrong, there is a lift near the guardhouse to go up 1 level to the swimming pool level (level 1). The lift is more for handicap use, a very small and slow moving one. There is also another lift near the clubhouse for the same purpose.

    Teak,
    According to Lee & Lee, solicitor o.b. of Wincheer, the amount you mention is correct for 6 shares. It does not however, mention anything about any
    survey fee. Would there be any - and if yes, why?

    As regards the final amount of the maintenance fee, my lawyers also commented that the difference of 30% between estimated (42) and actual (55)
    is unusually high. I can only recommend that all of you future neighbours who not yet picked up the keys and find that the actual maintenance fee is too high,
    are making the first payment under protest, i.e. hand in the cheque attached with a protest letter addressed to the developer.

    Burkie1,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I haven't receive top notice yet. But from s & p, I remembered there are total 2 types of fee?
    Maybe I miss out something. Anyway, only maintenance fee payment + 25% upon top notice, right?
    Do they round up the maintenance fee or exactly 2118.6sgd?
    Thank you.

    is the exact amount. the 25% should be disbursed by the bank via your lawyer upon receipt of the letter, so the thing that usually hold up the process is your 6mth maint fee. buy a cashiers order if u want to expedite it, as cheques take time to clear.

    No need cashier's order, a cheque will do as both take the same time to clear.

    Hi There

    I have few questions:
    1) Have anyone here collected keys?
    2) How long to apply for reno "permit" from developer?
    3) If I have several contractors can I have just one main con apply for the permit to covers all?
