Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Ask the agent or the management office about the tenure, the current maintenance fees and sinking fund, and which facilities are open to residents. If you are buying, check the title and whether a strata title has been issued. Find out if there are any outstanding charges on the unit. A lawyer can help you review the sale and purchase agreement. Always view the actual unit, not just a show unit or photos. Look at the condition of the walls, ceilings, windows and plumbing. Ask about parking, security arrangements and house rules, for example on renovations and pets. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully. Confirm the deposit amounts, what furniture and appliances are included, and who pays for repairs. Ask for the owner's details too. Comparing a few units in the building will help you judge whether an asking price or rent is fair.
