Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit to a unit at Jalan Bendahara, ask the agent, the owner or the building management for the key details. Confirm the tenure, whether freehold or leasehold, and if it is leasehold, how many years are left on the lease. Ask about monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund charges, and whether the current owner has any unpaid amounts. Find out which facilities are available, such as parking, lifts and security, and how they are kept up. Always view the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, to check noise, ventilation, water pressure and the condition of shared areas. Buyers should check the title and any restrictions with a lawyer. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit, notice period and repair responsibilities.
