To the people who are increasingly losing confidence in the current system, it is certainly timely booster. With the founding of the experts who lead real estate dispute settlement tribunal trying conducted a quick resolution of issues related to property and thus save money for everyone involved.
The government would set up the dispute resolution tribunal from its fund initially, but over time, the cost and the responsibility of running it would be handed back to the industry.
