Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the land tenure. Find out whether it is freehold or leasehold and, for a lease, how many years remain. Ask for the current maintenance fee and sinking fund charges, and confirm the seller has no outstanding arrears. Find out which facilities residents can use and whether they are in good working order. Always view the unit in person. Look for water stains and cracks, check the wiring and plumbing, and note how much natural light and ventilation the unit gets. Look at shared spaces such as corridors and stairways too, as they show how well the building is managed. Buyers should check the title and confirm the seller's ownership through a lawyer, and ask whether any restrictions apply to the sale. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, understand the deposit terms and take photos of the unit's condition before moving in.
