Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before committing to a unit at 99 Residence, ask the agent or building management about the tenure of the land, the current monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and which facilities are available to residents. Always view the unit in person and check its condition, including plumbing, windows, wiring and any signs of water leakage. Look at the state of the common areas, lifts and car parks, as these reflect how well the building is managed. Buyers should check the title type and confirm with a lawyer whether there are any restrictions or outstanding charges on the unit. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit amount, notice period and who is responsible for repairs. Comparing several units in the area will also help you judge whether an asking price or rent is fair.
