Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure, the monthly maintenance and sinking fund charges, and which facilities are available to residents and in working order. View the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, to judge noise, natural light and parking. If you are buying, check the title and any restrictions with a lawyer, and confirm that the seller is the registered owner. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, note the deposit terms and record the condition of the unit when you move in.
