The advertised price is rarely the complete financial picture. Budget for the transaction as a whole.
What to keep in mind
Ask for a written cost sheet covering applicable taxes, stamp duty, registration, maintenance deposits, parking if applicable, fit-out work and any other contractual charges. Costs depend on the property and transaction; confirm current rates with a qualified professional.
Before you move forward
Every property and transaction is different. Verify current information from official sources, request documents in writing and seek the right independent professional support before making a financial or legal commitment.
A more considered property decision begins with better questions. This article is for general information and does not replace legal, tax or financial advice.
