The legal fees payable to a lawyer acting for you when you buy or sell a property is calculated based on the purchase price as follows:-

- For the first RM 150,000, the legal fees payable is 1 %
- For the next RM 850,000, the legal fees payable is 0.7%
- For the next RM 2,000,000, the legal fees payable is 0.6%
- For the next RM 2,000,000, the legal fees payable is 0.5%
- For the next Rm 2,500,000, the legal fees payable is 0.4%
- For the remaining, if any, negotiable

Total legal fees = ( RM 150,000 x 1% ) + (RM 250,000 x 0.7%)
