Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office for the key details. Confirm the tenure and ask whether the title has been issued. Check the current maintenance fees and sinking fund charges, and whether any are in arrears. Find out which facilities are available and how well they are maintained. Always view the unit in person and look for signs of leaks, damp or wear. Test the water pressure, lifts and parking arrangements. If you are buying, have your lawyer check the title and any restrictions on it. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit terms and who pays for repairs. Visiting at different times of the day can also give you a better sense of noise, traffic and how the building is run.
