Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office for the key details. Confirm the tenure and check the title, including whether the strata title has been issued. Ask about the monthly maintenance fee and sinking fund, and whether any payments are outstanding on the unit you are considering. Find out which facilities are available and how well they are kept. View the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, so you can judge noise, light and parking. Look at the condition of lifts, corridors and common areas, as they show how the building is managed. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully and be clear on the deposit, the length of the tenancy and who pays for repairs. Comparing a few units here with those in nearby developments will help you judge whether the asking price or rent is fair.
