Shortlist first
Define non-negotiables before visiting projects.
Write down preferred city corridor, minimum usable configuration, maximum all-in budget, purchase timeline and whether the home is primarily for end use or investment. This prevents a branded presentation from rewriting the brief.
- Maximum all-in budget
- Preferred corridor
- Configuration
- Timeline
- End use or investment
Compare current documents
One spreadsheet can remove a lot of noise.
For each shortlisted unit, capture project, sector, phase, configuration, live cost sheet, payment schedule, applicable registration and key site-visit notes. Compare the same fields for every project.
Two-project rule
Do not visit ten projects at once.
After desk research, reduce the list to two or three serious options. A focused comparison makes differences in layout, access, service proposition and commercial terms easier to understand.
