Hi All, I am new to this forum.... recently we exercised our OTP for a 4 rooms flat in Tampines. During first viewing, we noticed there are quite serious painting peeling at the kitchen's ceiling, we thought its only peeling, nth serious, so we paid deposit 1k on that night. After few days, we requested a 2nd viewing together with a contractor, he told us the peeling may due to the leaking for the unit above us, but the owner insist no water leakage although we noticed some water stain. So we actually quite indecisive to proceed with the purchase, but our agent keep on saying he checked with hdb and this is not a big issue, etc...Our agent even offered us to pay $250 for the repair cost because the owner refuse to pay for the repair cost for this issue. Tomorrow our agent will go to HDB to report this issue and owner agreed to coordinate with hdb to perform the repair job. The question is: If the leakage is serious and its from unit above us, who should bear the cost? The bad part is we signed an agreement with the owner saying that we will bear the repair cost =(
