Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office for the key details: tenure (freehold or leasehold), monthly maintenance and sinking fund charges, and which facilities are provided. For a flat, also ask about lift servicing, parking, security and how the building is managed. Always view the unit in person. Look for water leaks, cracks and the condition of wiring, plumbing and windows, and check common areas such as stairways and corridors. Buyers should have a lawyer check the title and ownership, and confirm whether any restrictions apply, such as bumiputera or low-cost quotas. Renters should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit terms, who pays for repairs and what furniture is included.
