Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure, the current maintenance fees and sinking fund, and which facilities are available and in working order. Ask about parking allocation and visitor rules too. View the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, and check the water pressure, the lifts, the security arrangements and the general condition of the common areas. Buyers should confirm the title type, check that the strata title has been issued and make sure there are no outstanding charges on the unit. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit amounts, the length of the tenancy and who pays for repairs.
