I also had bad experience with this Kingsland Property. CK, Jeff Man, and Teddy Cheung are very tricky agents. They are three-in-one and share commissions. About 5 years ago, i rented a problem premises in Greens at market price through CK and Teddy Cheung. i lived there 4 years did not know that my flat has problem until my landlord wanted to sell the flat. I went to other agency to look for new flat and agents there told me that the flat i was living is not clean. Someone had died in the flat but Kingsland never disclose the fact to me. But they rented it to me at market price. I was so upset about this. I went to argue with CK and  Teddy Cheung. I asked them why not the problem premises shown in the Land Registration record. You know what they said? They said:" Land Registration only shows some cases that are published in Newspapers. Some cases did not disclose due to not many  people know about it. Therefore, it is not our obligation to tell"

I did not know the fact so I paid the market rent price. I meant they are unethical agency. They knew the flat has problem and it is not worth market rent price. It should be discounted. But other agency like Centaline reveals all problem premises to their clients and even keeps a problem premises record to secure their clients. Kingsland is unethical.Agents should conduct business ethically.

In my experience, agents have always checked and assured me that a flat is clean.  I estimate that 99 per cent of local buyers or renters, including myself - and I am not a local - would not touch a property in which someone had died violently in a suicide or a murder.  These are discounted by as much as 50 per cent.  More of a cultural reality than a superstitious fallacy.

If you study the way how Sellerselizb and Susan Jump post their posts to different forums and how vehemently they replied the public voices,

One would realize that they actually sound very much the same.  The wordings, the trolling techniques, the intensity. 

This person has some problems.

@Torgo, you are either CK or Teddy Cheung from Kingsland. You created many new accounts under many different name. Torgo, Poka, Sweetysue, and many others are actually the same person from  Kingsland. If you are not the agents from  Kingsland. Why would you care so much to study the "wordings, trolling techniques, and intensity"? Do you think it is nice to say"this person has some problems"?You are apparently attacking whoever makes complaints against your company.

All agents and property managements in DB know about the problem premises, whether the person died by natural cause, murder, or accident. They share the info but as I know, Kingsland does not tell the renters or buyers if it is not shown in land registry.

I'd be very surprised if Hong Kong Resorts tells anyone about deaths on its property. It's not in their interests to do so, and they have a long-established reputation for secrecy.

Again, there's no reason for the estate agent to compensate you for rent that you'd happily agreed to and paid for four years.

If an agent can't protect our interests to check the property's background, why do we need an agent and pay commission?

Would you mind to give me your email and I can send you the unit to check around with other agencies? It is better for you to check out yourself.

by searching member name, you will find steffenwolf, Poka, Sweetysue, torgo nuldo, frader_02 are simply joined to protect Kingsland. They are Kingsland agents.

I will anwer your question soon.

@ Jojos

i heard strange noises coming from the bathroom one night. It sounded like a machine creaking but a bit human like, similar to yelling. This had happened twice. I didn’t like the apartment I stayed in.
