Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure (freehold or leasehold) and the current maintenance fees and sinking fund charges. Ask which facilities are available and whether they are in working order. View the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, to check natural light, noise and the condition of fittings. Look at the common areas, lifts and car park to get a sense of how well the building is looked after. Buyers should check the title and any restrictions with a lawyer and confirm there are no outstanding charges on the unit. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit terms and who pays for repairs. Comparing several units in the same area will also help you judge whether an asking price or rent is reasonable.
