Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure (freehold or leasehold), the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and which facilities are available to residents. Always view the actual unit rather than relying on photos. Check the condition of the fittings, look for signs of leaks or damp, and notice how the common areas are kept. If you are buying, check the title and make sure the seller has the right to sell. Your lawyer can confirm whether there are any restrictions or outstanding charges. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit terms and who pays for repairs. It is also worth visiting at different times of day to get a feel for traffic, noise and parking.
