Location and neighbourhood

Mount Austin is a well-established residential and commercial area on the Tebrau side of Johor Bahru. Johor Bahru is the state's main city, across the Causeway from Singapore. The Tebrau, Masai and Pasir Gudang side covers the eastern part of the Johor Bahru district. It has a mix of housing estates, shops and businesses. Further east, Pasir Gudang is an industrial and port town, and many people who work there live elsewhere on this side of the district. Living in this part of Johor gives you a choice of everyday amenities in the surrounding neighbourhoods. As with any area, it is best to visit at different times of day to get a feel for traffic, noise and convenience for your own routine.

Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or building management for the key details. These include the tenure, the monthly maintenance and sinking fund charges, and which facilities residents can use. Always view the actual unit rather than relying on photos. Check the condition of the walls, ceilings, plumbing and windows, and look at the common areas, lifts and parking. Buyers should check the title and confirm that the seller is the registered owner, ideally with help from a lawyer. Tenants should read the tenancy agreement carefully, note the deposit terms and record the unit's condition on the day you move in.
