Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office for the key details, and get them in writing where you can. Useful points to cover: - Tenure: confirm whether the title is freehold or leasehold. If it is leasehold, ask how many years remain on the lease. - Title and ownership: check the type of title and confirm that the seller is the registered owner. - Maintenance fees and sinking fund: ask for the current monthly charges and check whether any arrears are attached to the unit. - Facilities: ask what is available to residents and whether it is in good working order. - The unit itself: view it in person and check for leaks, wiring problems, water pressure and the condition of fittings. - House rules: tenants should ask about parking, visitor access, and rules on renovation or pets. If you are taking a loan, your bank and lawyer will also carry out their own checks before the sale goes through.
