Singapore Gets Tough on Properties Market

By Billy Chen

With low barriers to entry are 30,000 real estate Singapore's population of 4 million inhabitants. In combination with not-there is no requirement for a test or an examination for a job that probably explains the deterioration of services in the field of real estate.

In response to a market that is fast losing faith on the falling real estate service level indicators, Singapore government announced a multi-pronged approach in its attempt to correct the situation. These proposed solutions are: Industry led accreditation body, Enforcement agency, Dispute Resolution Tribunal.

One significant part of the proposal is compulsory accreditation for all real estate agents. This accreditation body would be headed by industry veterans. And it would make public a central database of agents to conduct background assessment of agents they intend to employ.

The public search would hope that the role of hopping a subject that previously was not known, and stick to the substance with more cards to solve.

An enforcement agency is recommended in the proposal as well.And it will also be responsible for handling out penalty in the form of demerit points. The enforcement agency will be on the look out for errant agents and the responsible agencies.

To a population who is increasingly losing faith to the existing system, this is definitely a timely booster. With the set up of experts led real estate dispute resolution tribunal, it is working to lead quick resolution of property related issues, and thus save money for all involved.

The government would set up the dispute resolution tribunal from its fund initially, but over time, the cost and the responsibility of running it would be handed back to the industry.

This agency level tribunal would continue to serve its purpose and additionally function as a gate keeper for official Dispute Resolution Tribunal. For that reason, government insists that this is not a replacement for the existing agency level tribunal.Going by the number of reported grievances, it is expected that this tribunal would be overwhelmed as it starts operation.

That could remove at least a few months before the proposal would be implemented in full, and compare their effectiveness. But the government acknowledged that all parties in this dilemma is anxious to improve the current situation and the government would also facilitate the program through public education needs. - 23217
