Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you buy, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure and the current maintenance and sinking fund charges. Ask too about any house rules that apply to residents. Check which facilities are available and whether any of them are under repair or charged separately. Always view the actual unit rather than relying on photos. Look at the condition of the fittings, water pressure, windows and any signs of leaks. For a purchase, check the title type and confirm the seller's ownership through your lawyer. Find out whether any outstanding charges are owed on the unit. For a rental, read the tenancy agreement carefully. Note the deposit terms, what furniture is included and who handles repairs. Comparing a few units in the same building helps you judge whether an asking price or rent is fair.
