Selling a car to used car dealer, any advices?

Intel@Atom — Fri, 04 May 2012 23:34:52 +0800

A used car dealer paid me rm1000 deposit for my Kelisa (selling at rm20k). I have done the puspakom b5 & b7 inspections (born by me per agreement with the used car dealer).

The used car dealer's customer finally got the loan approved after a month of trying with many excuses. today I have passed all the documents include car registration card, b5, b7 and jpj ttic To the used car dealer for ownership transfer.

My questions are

1. Is it standard procedure to receive full payment before release the car to the used car dealer?Even wait for the cheque clearance?

2. Is it alright to do the ownership transfer without receiving full payment?Or any sell agreement?

3. Is it compulsory for the new driver buy the insurance or will the used car dealer just transfer the insurance policy to new driver while I will lose the ncd discount?

Question about house Renovation Plan?

Intel@Atom — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 06:50:48 +0800

Hi,
I have asked my contractor to submit a plan to extend my kitchen with the additional 5 feet backyard to local state government but the extended design is not same with the plan as the local government only accept 1 design which is not what I want. My contractor suggests me not to take back the RM500 deposit and just don't submit for approval.

is this the right way to do and what will happen if they come (in future) and tell me the extended design is not same with the plan? Will they ask me to destroy it or just penalty?

thx
