Review lift age, service history, failures, parts support, replacement plan, funding and resident access before buying.
A working lift can still carry a large future liability
Record every lift serving the unit, parking and amenities. Ask for model, installation date, maintenance contract, inspection and breakdown logs, trapped-passenger events, parts availability and unresolved recommendations. Compare usage with occupancy, service response and backup access during failure.
Read AGM minutes, budgets, reserve or sinking-fund records and quotations for modernization or replacement. Clarify how special assessments would be allocated and how residents, deliveries and emergency response operate during downtime. Read the condo budget guide, generator guide and buyer service.
