Upholding the Professional Standard
To remind licensees that they are required to observe and
comply with the relevant provisions in the EAO and its subsidiary
legislation when they handle the sale and purchase or leasing of
car parking spaces, a practice circular on “Sale and Purchase or
Leasing of Car Parking Spaces” was issued to provide guidelines
to licensees on the proper practice and measures to be adopted
with regard to ascertaining whether there is any restriction that
the car parking space concerned can only be used for the parking
of vehicles belonging to the residents or occupiers of the building
when they deal with the sale and purchase or leasing of a car
parking space alone. To enhance the trade's understanding and
compliance of the practice circular, a set of related “Questions and
Answers”was uploaded on the EAA website.
The EAA also issued practice circulars respectively on “Proper
Authorisation by Absent Contracting Party” for giving guidance
to licensees when dealing with any person claiming to be the
authorised representative of an absent contracting party in a
sale and purchase or leasing transaction, and on “Completion
of Provisional Tenancy Agreement and Tenancy Agreement” to
remind licensees to exercise due care and due diligence when
preparing tenancy agreements for their clients.
