Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you make a decision, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure and confirm it against the title. Buyers should check the type of title and whether a strata title has been issued, and may want a lawyer to carry out a search. Ask about the monthly maintenance fee and sinking fund, and whether there are any outstanding charges on the unit. Find out which facilities are available and whether they are in working order. View the unit in person and check for water leaks, the condition of fittings and how much natural light it gets. Tenants should also ask about house rules, parking and what is included in the rent. Comparing several listings in Melaka City will help you judge whether an asking price or rent is fair.
