Which would you choose to buy for own stay? An ugly looking bungalow, a normal looking semi D, or a very nice looking terraced house? howbowdabagel Property Talk Fri, 07 Mar 2014 12:08:23 +0800 http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3151059 I plan to buy a completed house from the developer. But the developer wants me to pay a 10% deposit then only apply for bank loan, then sign the S&amp;P. I told him what if I pay 2 or 3% booking fee, then apply loan and once the loan is approved I would pay the remaining 7 or 8% and sign S&amp;P but he said no.<br /><br />I ask what if my loan is not approved and he told me to check with bank first. I said I can check with bank but that does not mean 100% guarantee it will be approved later when I apply.<br /><br />Wondering if this is standard practice and if it is safe on my part? Please help. howbowdabagel Property Talk Tue, 04 Mar 2014 18:02:41 +0800
