Property in Malaysia for sale and rent | Buy, Rent and sell real estate and homes

My reply will be as stated above.

If the problem of no electricity (basic amenities are implied conditions under the National Land Code) persists without the landlord bothered to rectify, then, this becomes a frustration event that can lead the contract be voidable.

Usually a notice of termination sent to the landlord will be sufficient.

Your rental deposit is to be deducted of all arrears of bills not settled since you moved into this tenanted apartment, not before.

As for the stolen vehicle, a police report should have benn lodged.

How can one escape this contract? Want to terminate the contract now after 1 week but to make sure the landlord does not pursue for 12 month rental.

\\\"Should the tenant desire to determine the term hereby granted the Tenant may only do so after a period of twelve (12) months. The Tenant may then give two (2) months notice in advance, in respect of such termination or two (2) months rent in lieu thereof. In the event that the Tenant terminated the Tenancy within the first twelve (12) months thereof, the security deposit will be forfeited automatically.\\\"

Well, if one wishes to do so, then, perhaps, it would advisable to check with your agent.

If the tenancy agreement is already stamped, then, to challenge the admissibility of the stamped
agreement, one should be prepared to answer what makes the prospective tenant to sign in the first place.

If the choice is that the tenant is eager to take a 12 mths tenancy, then, unlikely there is any ground to renege on the agreement.

On the other hand, if the choice is not open to the tenant,( which seems highly unlikely to deny knowledge and anticipation), then, such a situation may be deemed to be known as anticipatory breach of contract.

If so, then, the landlord may seek to enforce his rights under the contract and claim damages for the tenant's anticipatory breach of contract. No right of rescission is open to the tenant since it is reasonably foreseeable that the tenant would have foreknowledge of such a consequence in the event the tenant decides later to terminate the tenancy agreement.

Is it always 12 months contract of rent? What if on the next couple of months I plan to move?
Would the contract still be applied?
