Before booking a viewing, I want to know whether the unresolved paperwork justifies seeing the property first or should stop me spending the time. It is a 2-bed Hong Kong villa offered at HK$10,490,000, with a stated area of about 65 m². The condition notes suggest an ordinary used property rather than a fresh renovation or an obvious project.
My preference is to obtain the title information, the basis for the area measurement and details of any service charges before visiting. I would also ask for the included fixtures, known defects and energy information. Parking needs a precise answer: a nearby space that can sometimes be rented is not equivalent to parking included in the title.
A practical compromise may be to request the title and parking position now, then use the viewing to assess condition and fixtures. Would buyers locally normally expect any of the other points to be confirmed in writing beforehand?
