1. No matter buying, selling or renting of premises, real estate agency must carry on Land Search for the related property to confirm who is the actual owner of the premise.
2. Pay attention to the date of Land Search to see whether it is the same as the contract date.
3. In the process of sale & purchase transaction, please make sure that the type of Land Search is Full (i.e. Historical & Current).  Since some of the agency will only do current Land Search instead of Full Search.  If related premise do have any court order or building order registered long time ago, it may not shown on the current search.
4. If the admired premise do have registered building order, both buyer & seller must achieves the mutual recognition on the maintenance fee in order to have the transaction completed.
5. For choosing of the attorney of the transaction, we must be very careful especially the buyer.  For those attorney which it not professional enough, they may not details enough to check the past agreements.  Any leakage of past agreement will be able to affect sells of the flat in the future.  In addition, choosing attorney carelessly also have the chance to cause the transaction defeat to incur loss.  Careful & professional attorney even can find out some building maintenance which is not registered at the Land Department, e.g. resolutions regarding building maintenance passed by the Landlord Committee of the Building, etc.
6. Most of the buyers may decide to choose some furnished and renovated flat in order to save the money expense on renovation of their new flat.  But be careful, most likely the vacant flat with renovation is belong to investor, their renovation may be only make-up renovation.  For such flat, you may need to renovate it once again after moved in for a while.
