5 Questions to Ask Before Booking a Property Viewing

A viewing is your chance to look past the photographs. Ask the right questions and you will avoid surprises long after you have moved in.

The five that matter most

  • Why is it on the market? The answer often reveals the home’s real story.
  • How reliable are water and power? Ask about boreholes, tanks and backup supply.
  • What are the monthly costs? Service charges and utilities shape true affordability.
  • Is the title clean and ready? Confirm documentation before you fall in love with the space.
  • What is the neighbourhood like at night? Visit twice, at different times, if you can.

Bring a checklist and take your time. When you are ready, book a viewing with us and a consultant will walk the property with you.
