Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the building management about the tenure, whether freehold or leasehold, and how many years are left on a leasehold title. Ask about the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and what they cover. Check which facilities are available and whether they are in working order. Always view the unit in person. Look at the condition of the walls, ceilings, windows, plumbing and wiring, and check for signs of leaks or damp. Visit at different times of day to get a feel for noise, traffic and parking. If you are buying, have your lawyer check the title, any outstanding charges or arrears, and any restrictions on the property. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit terms, who pays for repairs, and the notice period.
