Second phase of Residential Properties (First-hand Sales) Ordinance exhibition set to launch
******************************************************************************************
The Ordinance, which commenced full operation on April 29, 2013, aims to enhance the transparency and fairness of the sale of first-hand residential properties, strengthen consumer protection, and provide a level playing field for vendors of first-hand residential properties. The Ordinance sets out detailed requirements in relation to sales brochures, price lists, sales arrangements, register of transactions, show flats, viewing of completed residential properties, advertisements, and the mandatory provisions for the preliminary agreement for sale and purchase and agreement for sale and purchase for the sales of first-hand residential properties. It also provides for prohibitions against misrepresentation and the dissemination of false or misleading information.
