About Residensi Kiara

Residensi Kiara is a condominium development in Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur. Condominium living usually means having your own unit within a shared building, with common areas looked after by a management body and paid for through monthly charges. This type of home can suit people who want apartment living in a residential suburb rather than in the busiest parts of the city centre. Layout, condition and furnishing can differ from one unit to the next within the same development, so it is worth viewing more than one unit before you decide.

Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the building management about the tenure of the land, as this can affect long-term value and financing. Ask for the current maintenance fee and sinking fund charges, and whether any increases are planned. Confirm which facilities are available to residents and whether they are in working order. Always view the actual unit you are interested in, and check for signs of damp, leaks or wear. Check parking arrangements and visitor access too. Buyers should check the title status and whether a strata title has been issued, and may want a lawyer to review the paperwork. Renters should read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit amount, the length of the lease and who pays for repairs.
