actually getting out there and inspecting it in person. In this
episode, we share our top five property inspection tips,

details. We show you how to stay organised with checklists, so
you get the most out of each visit.


Next, we dive into the importance of exploring the neighbourhood.
From checking out local shops and parks to observing the
playground atmosphere, understanding the area’s vibe is key. And
of course, we cover what to look for in the property’s structure,
helping you spot potential red flags early and save yourself from
unnecessary costs.


Finally, we leave you with a crucial tip that could make or break
your chances of closing the deal so don’t miss out on this
