Daniel Tan, a property agent at Prime Estate Agency, is assisting Rajesh Kumar, a single professional, in purchasing his first property in Singapore.
Rajesh is interested in a condominium unit at the prestigious Marina Bay Residences.
During their discussions, Daniel emphasizes the property's prime location and potential for appreciation.
However, he fails to mention ongoing legal disputes involving the property developer, which he should have known about through due diligence.
Rajesh, relying on Daniel's expertise, proceeds with the purchase.
A few months later, Rajesh discovers the legal issues, which significantly affect the property's value.
Feeling misled, Rajesh considers legal action against Daniel and Prime Estate Agency.
