Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before committing to any unit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure, whether freehold or leasehold, and how many years remain on a lease. Check the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund charges, and ask what facilities are available to residents and whether they are in working order. Always view the unit in person, looking at the condition of plumbing, wiring, windows and any signs of damp. Buyers should check the title status and confirm the seller's ownership through a lawyer, and ask about any outstanding fees owed to management. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit terms and who pays for repairs. Asking residents or the guardhouse about parking, security and building upkeep can also give useful insight.
