Darrel Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 These fees aren't really hidden. They have all been written quite clearly on every price list I have ever seen. They are variable from building to building, but 5-10k for the electric meter, 20-60B/sqm/month (often payable 2 years in advance on purchase) for maintenance are pretty common. Sinking fund will vary a lot from building to building also, but could be 100-500Bsqm. Then you have the transfer tax and fees which are dictated by the government. These may be split between the buyer and the developer, or maybe not. Then the furniture package, aircons, electrical items like TVs, fridges. These may or may not be extras.
