I don't believe that the same requirement exists for buying property. Edited June 22, 2021 by Liverpool Lou 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand because one has to get certificate of residency to buy car. I had to last yr when i got new triton But, it does seem that some people, WhiteBuffaloATM, for example, are lucky to have special exemptions from those Cert of Residence/WP requirements that the rest of us have to comply with in order to register vehicles in our names!

Some work permits do not have an address, they do not satisfy the requirements of the Land transport Department and are not accepted. Anything I've written above do you not understand ?
