Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before committing, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure, the monthly maintenance fee and sinking fund, and which facilities are available to residents. Visit the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, to check noise, natural light, ventilation and the condition of fittings. Buyers should check the title and strata details and confirm there are no outstanding charges on the unit. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully and note the condition of the unit before moving in. With several condominiums close by, comparing asking prices and rents across nearby developments will help you judge whether an offer is fair.
