Housing developers which are still active with a valid advertising permit and developer’s licence (APDL) under the Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Act 1996 (Act 118) are allowed to resume operation.
Under Phase 1 of NRP, the activities allowed to operate are the housing developer's management office, handing over of vacant possession notices and house keys.
Other activities allowed are critical damage repairs during the defect liability period, and construction works for Rumah Mesra Rakyat (RMR) under Syarikat Perumahan Negara Bhd (SPNB) for G1 to G4 contractors, it said.
In the Phase 2 of NRP, sales and marketing at the developer’s office, sales agent, sales gallery, show unit and subsale property units are allowed to resume operation.
KPKT said the permission for the housing development sector to operate is subject to compliance with the latest standard operating procedures (SOPs) which can be downloaded from KPKT's website at https://www.kpkt.gov.my.
