Fresh paint can hide a recurring leak

Inspect window heads, sills, balcony doors, façade joints, ceilings, skirtings and built-in furniture after rain where possible. Use moisture readings and dated photographs, then compare stains and repairs with the unit history, juristic-office incident records and building maintenance programme.

Establish whether the defect belongs to the unit or common property, who can authorise access, whether façade work is planned and how insurance, warranty and special assessments may respond. Read tropical property inspection, condo financial health and buyer service.

Fact check

Leak source, common-property boundaries, warranties, insurance, access, repair method and cost are unit-, building- and date-specific. Use qualified inspectors and current legal documents.
