Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure of the land, the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and which facilities are available to residents. View the unit in person, check the condition of fittings, plumbing and windows, and look at the common areas to see how well the building is maintained. Buyers should check the title type and confirm whether individual strata titles have been issued, and ask a lawyer to review the paperwork. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, confirm what is included in the rent, and agree on the deposit terms in writing. Comparing a few listings in the same area will also help you judge whether an asking price or rent is fair.
