I received a letter from hr today. they doesn't want to renew my contract, and did give me any reasons.

they didn't give me 2 months notice exactly stated in the contract.... but they put an early date in the letter.
But i only know this today wor ..... can they do that?

they say i have to work until end of Dec and my leave balance will be paid. do I have the right to choose leave the company before end of Dec? since I still have leaves balance.

Thank you.

hi,
i recently come across a auction properties, and i am very interested in it. however, i never own a house nor having knowledge in this area.

The auction properties is freehold aparment, it has been build around 10 years ago. My main concent is about the title transfer, do i need the consent from the developer? how long the process will take? if this delay, i think i won't have enough time to get the loan from bank, because the bank will only give loan after the transfer is completed, right?

Besides, I am going to do a title search on the unit, should i check the master title too? what should i aware of? Please give me some advices, thanks
