Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office for the key details. Check the tenure, whether freehold or leasehold, and look at the land title yourself or through a lawyer. Ask about monthly maintenance fees and the sinking fund, and whether there are any outstanding charges on the unit you are considering. Confirm which facilities are available and whether they are in good working order. Always view the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, to check noise, natural light and the condition of fittings. Walk around the common areas and lobby to see how well the building is kept. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully and note the deposit terms. Finally, compare asking prices and rents with similar units nearby so you know you are paying a fair amount.
