Heard today a seller has been refused letter from JP allowing sale of his condo. No legal loans attached on Chanote. New on on me, any legal reasons JP can do this?

PattayaPhom.

Normally the Juristic Person would say why the(Bpai Plord Nee) or as we call it the free of debt letter wouldnt be issued, there may be utility fees unpaid.Each condominium has different requirements for issuing the letter,your friend should ask what are the requirements for his particular Condo. I have heard of a few buildings refusing to issue the free of debt letter untill an under the table fee (bribe) is paid!

Good luck. BW

Unpaid common fees seems the obvious suspect.

I'm surprised the building office didnt just say why though in so many words. They have always been very forthcoming in cases I have come across of this happening.

Thanks for the replies guys but maintenance has been paid. I think he is off to ask why

If you need to sell the condo, you should have that letter, I call in English that No Debt Letter . If you pay all.You just wait about 3-4 days after JP clears everything and send to manager sign contract.

The No Debt Letter is created for make sure that the seller doesn't have any debt as maintanance fee , water supply or electricity with the Condo. If they don't have the letter, thye land department must not allow to transfer the room..

If the condo unit is to be sold under foreign-owned entitlement, the JP will also need to issue a certificate for such a sales and transfer together with a breakdown of thai/foreign ownerships of all the units in the development.
