Property Viewing Checklist: What to Check Before Buying HomeHNI | 2026-10-29 https://www.homehni.in/property-guides/property-viewing-checklist Take the same questions to every viewing so an attractive photograph does not become your only basis for comparison. QUICK CHECKLIST [ ] Confirm the listing reference, full address and viewing contact. [ ] Record the area measurement and what it includes. [ ] Inspect rooms, ventilation, water, drainage and visible condition. [ ] Check access, parking, shared facilities and recurring charges. [ ] List documents and information still needing independent review. [ ] Compare all shortlisted homes using the same headings. PROPERTY / LISTING REFERENCE: __________________________ LOCATION: _____________________________________________ VISIT / DISCUSSION DATE: _______________________________ NOTES TO RESOLVE: 1. Verify the practical details before travelling [ ] Write down the advertised price and any charges already mentioned. [ ] Ask whether the home is occupied and when possession is proposed. [ ] Keep the listing link so you can compare the advertisement with what you see. Notes: ________________________________________________ 2. Compare usable space, not only the stated area [ ] Check room dimensions, door openings, storage and natural ventilation. [ ] Look for visible damp, cracks, damaged fittings or unfinished work; record questions for a suitable professional. [ ] Ask which fixtures, appliances and parking spaces form part of the proposed transaction. Notes: ________________________________________________ 3. Check the building and the surrounding location [ ] Ask about water supply, power arrangements, drainage and waste collection. [ ] Check access for the people who will actually use the home. [ ] Compare the exact address and your usual travel route, rather than the city name alone. Notes: ________________________________________________ 4.
