Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure, the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and which facilities are available to residents. View the unit in person and look closely at its condition, including signs of leaks, the state of the fittings and the view from the windows. Ask about parking allocation, security arrangements and any house rules, such as renovation or pet policies. If you are buying, check the title and ownership details with a lawyer, and confirm there are no outstanding fees on the unit. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, note the deposit terms and record the unit's condition with photos when you move in.
