[WEBINAR] Day of Conveyancing Highlights 2020 – Day 2

No. of Public CPD Points: 3.0 Practice Area: Real Estate Training Level: General

About the Programme

The Conveyancing Practice Committee is pleased to present the ‘Day of Conveyancing Highlights’ for the ninth consecutive year. This is a very special year, with our legal community grappling with “circuit breaker” measures and issues in the midst of legal practice.  It will be the first time we are holding this programme via two half-day Webinars (albeit covering different topics) to reach out to more people.

The legal practice of real estate in Singapore requires, in addition to a good understanding of property law, an appreciation of peripheral issues including rules on stamp duties, laws regulating foreign ownership of residential properties, and relevant policies of statutory boards which control different aspects of dealings in real estate.  

We are pleased to welcome the following expert speakers who will share their expertise and experiences:

• Speaker from the Land Dealings Approval Unit discussing the regulation of foreign ownership of residential properties
• Renowned property consultant who will give us a timely update on the Real Estate Market.
• Speaker from the Stamp Duty and Property Tax Branch of IRAS who will highlight the key stamp duty rules affecting real estate transactions.
• Lockton professional sharing some common issues arising from the claims made against real estate lawyers
