Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office a few practical questions. Tenure: is the property freehold or leasehold, and if leasehold, how many years remain? Title: has strata title been issued, and does the name on it match the seller? Maintenance fees and sinking fund: how much is charged each month, what does it cover, and are there any arrears on the unit? Facilities: which facilities are available, and are they in working order? Utilities: ask how electricity, water and assessment are billed. Always view the unit in person, look for water stains or cracks, and test the taps, lights and air-conditioning. Renters should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit, notice period and who pays for repairs. Buyers should ask a lawyer to carry out a title search before paying any deposit.
