Read the section 32 and body corp minutes to see if there's major works that've been delayed. Could easily be some massive major issue that's been kicked down the road for the next person to deal with. Once enough original tenants have left suddenly everyone needs to find $30k to chip in to fix the problem.

I wouldn't touch anything with south facing windows. I've live in too many places and south facing windows make my brain sad. I'd rather deal with the western suns heat.
