Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office for the key details. These include the tenure (freehold or leasehold), monthly maintenance and sinking fund charges, and which facilities are provided and how well they are kept. Always view the actual unit rather than relying on photos. Check the condition of the walls, ceilings, plumbing, wiring, windows and doors, and look for signs of leaks or damp. Look at common areas such as staircases, corridors, lifts if any, and parking, because these show how well the building is managed. Buyers should confirm the title type and ownership details, check for any outstanding charges on the unit, and ask whether there are restrictions on sale or transfer. A lawyer can help with these checks. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, agree in writing what is included, and record the unit's condition with photos when they move in.
