Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit to any unit, get the key details in writing from the agent, the owner or the building management. Ask about the tenure and the type of title, and check the title yourself or through your lawyer. Ask what the monthly maintenance fee and sinking fund charges are, and whether there are any arrears on the unit. Find out which facilities are available and whether they are in working order. View the unit in person and, if you can, visit at different times of day to get a sense of noise, parking and lighting. Look at the condition of the lifts, corridors and common areas, as these show how well the building is managed. Tenants should check the house rules on renovations, pets and visitors, and confirm what furniture and appliances come with the unit. Finally, compare similar units in nearby developments so you have a fair sense of the price or rent.
