Look for consistency, not cosmetics alone

Paint and finishes can hide or distract from workmanship. Observe alignment, cracks, dampness, tile levels, door/window operation and visible service work.

Ask for specifications

Compare what is installed with the project’s stated specifications and applicable agreement/project documents.

Observe common areas too

Staircases, passages, parking, drainage, services, external finishes and access are part of the property experience.

Use a professional for technical inspection

Where the decision warrants it, a qualified engineer or home-inspection professional can identify issues that a casual visual inspection may miss.
