Getting the Most Out of a Site Visit
A site visit is your clearest chance to notice things photos don't show. A little preparation makes it count.
Bring a short checklist
Water pressure, natural light at different times of day, and mobile signal are easy to forget to check in the moment.
Ask about the neighbours and the building
How long people tend to stay, and how maintenance issues get handled, tells you a lot about day-to-day life there.
Take your own photos and notes
Listing photos are taken to look their most flattering — your own photos help you compare properties honestly afterward.
Don't decide on the spot
A good property will still be a good property tomorrow. Taking a day to think it over rarely costs you the listing.
