Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before committing, ask the agent or the management office for the tenure, the current maintenance fees and sinking fund charges, and which facilities residents can use. Buyers should check the title type and any restrictions on it, and have a lawyer review the documents before signing. View the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, to judge noise, natural light and parking. Look at the condition of common areas such as lifts, corridors and car parks, as these say a lot about how a building is looked after. Tenants should confirm what furniture and appliances are included, the deposit required and who handles repairs. Comparing similar units at nearby developments can also help you judge whether an asking price or rent is fair.
