Hi Sanji37! Dun be sad .... I know how you feel... Why didn't your agent follow up for you on whether have they bought a place or not... How long an extension did you agree? There should be a time limit... Think you 2nd appt should be on the 2nd-3rd week of Sept... Feel that you should give your agent some work to do and have him find out all the details for you... or the seller should have the courtesy to let you know... It seems like nowadays, when we buy a house from them like owe them our lives like that.. this must give in, that must give in... No doubt you sign an extension letter, but after 2nd appt, even if they get kick out, they cannot use that against you cos there's no such thing as extension... likewise for me, I allow them to extend, if anything happens after the 2nd appt is going to be my and not their problem... but my letter for them to sign is going to state that even if the letter is not accepted as an agreement by the law, they will still have to bear my legal cost should I sue them... You should have them sign an extension letter in favor of yourself too.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hihi Sanji37! I believe they are taking you for granted. Why must you wait til the 1st appt to get a clearer pic? Maybe you can tell your agent that you need to make plans as well so insist on date. If they are buying a condo, the transaction will also need about 3 months. If they did not state a time frame in the letter, you can. If they say you agree to extend, you can tell them you agreed, even if you extend by 1 day, it's also extension. Sometimes we do not wanna be mean but in situations like this, whereby they are clearly taking advantage of us, we should like them know that they can't push us around. At the 2nd appt, we have officially paid for the house and its ours, like I've mentioned in my previous posts, it's out of goodwill that we allow them to extend so they should be nice to us and not the other way round... Oooops I getting very long winded I've shortlisted 2 IDs but only one came back with the final quotation so have decided to drop the other as it has been 2 weeks already. Now at the stage of bargaining, went down to meet him the other day and did a comparison chart of his prices and other IDs and let him sleep over it Shortlisted him cos very comfortable with him and he replies and answers every call of mine. Unlike some IDs, even before I sign, they are not replying my sms... Where's your new place?? Does your place have any overhead beams? Hi why not do as renting to them?maybe can ask your lawyer to make a letter, i think it's more save. . Hi CutePinkElephant! Found out that even if they sign the lease agreement, it's not legal. Found that out when reading the Bank Letter of Offer ad HDB website. Lawyer will be able to make a letter but if something happens, the letter is also not recognize in the court... No win win situation for kind hearted buyers like us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
