Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the building management for the key details. Confirm the tenure (freehold or leasehold) and check that the title matches what you are told. Ask about the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and what they cover. Find out which facilities are available and whether they are in working order. Always view the unit in person: look at the condition of the walls, windows, plumbing and wiring, and visit at different times of day to get a feel for noise and traffic. If you are buying, a lawyer can help you verify the title and any outstanding charges on the unit. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, including the deposit terms and who pays for repairs.
