Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before committing, ask the agent or the management office for the key details. Find out whether the title is freehold or leasehold, how much the monthly maintenance fee and sinking fund are, and which facilities residents can use. If you are buying, check the title type and ask whether a strata title has been issued. It is a good idea to have a lawyer review the documents. If you are renting, confirm what the rent includes, the deposit terms and the length of the tenancy. Always view the unit in person. Look at the condition of the walls, ceilings, windows and plumbing, test the air-conditioning and water pressure, and check for signs of leaks. Ask about the building's rules on renovation, pets and parking, and see how the common areas are kept. If you can, speak to current residents, as they often give a useful picture of everyday living.
