If you have received your title deed, where should you store it?
1) Home;
2) Safe deposit box at CICSO;
3) With Lawyer;
4) ...
If you lost your title deed, can you ask SLA to re-issue it?
If yes, how much it will cost?
Thanks,
Richard

Ok my To Do list refreshed: u now no. 1 target!!!
Safe deposit box
The most successful investors are defined by their actions in a bear market, not a bull market.
I left it in the drawer too, scan a copy & left it in the cloud.
Wow, TS..... you have subtly asked how many of us have cleared our housing loan.Originally Posted by maisonjai
Keep in the safe.
Good idea about storing in the cloud.
PDF is as good as original, right?
Replacing it will cost a few thousand dollars, i was told.
I suppose it is only as secure as e strength of e army?Originally Posted by buttercarp
sista, u own landed right? make a copy, ziplock & bury 1 set in ur garden....then u have 1 set each in "heaven & earth"...heeheeOriginally Posted by buttercarp
That's a good idea! Provided my pets don't dig it up.Originally Posted by maisonjai
But the problem is I am not in a landed yet and to get hold of the landed title deed will probably take many years.
Bro Blue just beat you to it.... But his neighbouring unit still available. You buy, then every chinese new year we all can come and take red packets wakakakaOriginally Posted by buttercarp
Eh no wat. Every sale you get back the title deed also... Its useless so I just keep in drawer...Originally Posted by buttercarp
Just received a letter from HDB. You can either safekeep it yourself or the Legal Department will safekeep it on your behalf.
with fees involved.Originally Posted by pinkpolkadot
I tot title deed only given to you when u clear your housing loan?Originally Posted by carbuncle
Good idea to store up in cloud.. but will it still considered as original?Originally Posted by maisonjai
Ya... Every sale have to fully redeem the loan isnt it.Originally Posted by buttercarp
Yes. Only when fully paid up.Originally Posted by buttercarp
The letter didn't mention fee. It says: As an extra service to you Legal department will safekeep the Title Deed on your behalf."Originally Posted by price
Make a copy and get the strata agency to certify thru copy.(they do that for a small fee)Originally Posted by richwang
Keep one in safe , other keep at home.
For hdb it's advisable to leave it with legal dept at hdb hub. When u decided to sell the flat it's more convenient too, save the hassle searching it.Originally Posted by pinkpolkadot
Just keep them in drawer at home. SLA already has record of them. Make multiple hardcopies and even keep softcopy of them in yahoo, gmail, cloud,etc if this makes you feel more comfortable.
Ya, I was told it cost a few thousand dollars too and is very troublesome.Originally Posted by buttercarp
Well, I put it on the the book shelves in my storeroom, haha.
die.........hubby redeemed the HL that day but now I can't remember where we put the title deeds. It's certainly not in the safe deposit box coz we haven't gone there for ages.....jialat......
For LH ppty the title deed is just air space. According to mr goh "They’re buying air!"
The master title deed for LH land is SLA forever...kekeke
So the best is to hold FH landed title deeds.Originally Posted by maisonjai

Not forgetting the will too.Originally Posted by maisonjai
In a way yes, once a lao jiao told me this, his dad passed on 20yrs ago & left the land to him. In 10~15yrs his time will come & pass on to his children. His exact words "my name is only 'temporary owner' of the land."Originally Posted by DC33_2008
I was speechless for a moment.
