Recently I learnt how to file tribunal claims for my newly hand over unit from developer. The unit is already over 36 months. On top of that, the common facilities also not available during hand over. As such, as a home buyer, I feel that this is not appropriate and want to look for the solution with developer.
After several researches, I think filing to the Tribunal claims will be more appropriate after failing negotiation with developer.
Since my unit is at Selangor state, and decide to file at the Putrajaya. In fact you can file in any where as long as there is Tribunal office.

I bought a property which is still in the warranty period. I noticed recently that there is interfloor leakage in my master bedroom’s bathroom, staining the ceilings.
I lodge a complain with the defect team which resolved the issue by PU injection rather than by improving the waterproofing from the top floor. Managing interfloor leakage with PU injections is a short term solution, which may see the developer through the warranty period. However this is going to be a long term problem for me for being sold a property with defective waterproofing from above. What can I do?

Dear Author,
I own an apartment unit at the top most floor. It is also right beside 3 elevators. The elevator engine or motor rooms are right above my unit. The lift shaft and my unit share one same wall. The distance is too near. There is lots of noise and vibration heard inside my unit when the elevators move up and down. Lots of clanking sound from brakes etc. I did file numerous complaints with the developer. It has been 2 years since the developer and the elevator company is dragging the issue. Many so called inspections were done visually. Last time, elevator company did one vibration and tested with one weightage only. One weight and one reading only. I went to Putrajaya but they said must see COB first.
May I know the possibility of winning a case like this when the building design was approved by the COB itself at first? What is the deadline for filing a tribunal?

Is it possible file to court without hire lawyer? if yes, do you know the procedures or where can I refer the procedures file to court?
Or can I try to claim thru tribunal more than RM50k and see how is their reply?
Though got the CCC letter but the unit is not ready and don’t know how long need to wait until the unit really ready to stay.
This linked article mentioned :
“The jurisdiction of the Tribunal relating to the amount or value of subject matter claimed or in issue was recently increased from RM25,000 to RM50,000. Even then, if a claim exceeds RM50,000, the Tribunal may hear and determine the claim if the parties agree in writing to submit to the jurisdiction of the Tribunal. If no agreement in writing can be reached, the claimant may abandon so much of a claim that exceeds RM50,000 to bring the claim within the jurisdiction of the Tribunal.”

Hi! i would like to know, if the borang F (CCC) approved on 23/Dec/2019, but the VP letter issued on 20/Dec/2019. Is it no problem? But they send out the letter in only 24/Dec/2019 (i online traced).
And if i didn’t receive the letter until developer email to me on 02/Jan/2020, i only noticed i can collect the key. and i found the letter they are sent to wrong address (their mistakes) cause me didn’t receive the letter.
In this case, can i claim their LAD until i received the email on 02/Jan?

AuthorHi:
Do give them a list of defect and submit to them for acknowledgement.
and do specify a reasonable time frame for them to fix it.
Either you can do it with physical letter or email them.
Once the period given is up, and still not able to fix, you may proceed to file at Tribunal for next course of actions.
