Another aspect that condo buyer need to take note of is the land status of the development project which he or she is intending to purchase a unit. The land status can either be in residential or commercial. If the land status is commercial, one can expect that the quit rent, assessment and the utilities bills will be charged at commercial rate which is higher than the rate for residential status.

For those who are buying for own occupation, this may mean higher maintenance cost for the unit. For those buying for rental yield, while the utilities bill may most likely be paid by the tenant, the higher quit rent and assessment may translate to a lower rental yield.
