Taxes, Fees, and Due Diligence Before You Buy

The FAQ and legal notes are clear that the property price is only one part of the capital plan. Buyers also need to budget for taxes, fees, furnishing, management, and diligence.

Just as importantly, the source material presents due diligence as a core protective step, not an optional extra once the buyer is already emotionally committed.

The provided FAQ highlights stamp duty, annual property tax, rental-income tax exposure, and capital-gains rules as the main tax areas buyers should understand.

It also adds reservation fees, legal or administrative fees, furnishing costs, and monthly management charges to the real purchase budget.

The document repeatedly returns to the same diligence checklist: developer track record, title ownership, permits, completion timeline, and contract conditions.

That list should be reviewed before funds are committed because the quality gap between projects can be large even when brochures look similar.

For an investor, this means stress-testing the total capital required and the assumptions behind any yield projection before deciding whether the entry point still makes sense.

The better question is not just whether a unit looks affordable, but whether the full transaction and operating structure still works once costs are included.
