Choose the main use
| Full-time home | Daily storage, kitchen, bedroom privacy, laundry, lift access, and practical furniture space. |
|---|---|
| Second home | Guest comfort, easy upkeep, lock-up storage, arrival, view, and furnishing. |
| Home and office | Quiet room, doors, natural light, internet position, and separation from the living area. |
| Investment | Tenant group, realistic rent, yearly costs, condition, and future buyer demand. |
Compare the two bedrooms
Check whether both rooms can hold the furniture your use needs. Look at wardrobe depth, bathroom access, window shape, columns, privacy, and the walk between bedrooms and living space. A second room that only works on paper may weaken value.
Test the living area
- Can a real dining table and sofa fit without blocking the view or walkway?
- Does the kitchen support daily use or only short stays?
- Is there space for luggage, shoes, cleaning items, and laundry?
- Can guests use a bathroom without entering a bedroom?
- Do doors, columns, and glass leave enough usable wall space?
View and floor are separate choices
A higher floor does not fix a view or layout that misses your goal. Compare direction, what each room sees, daylight, glare, privacy, and how the view may feel at different times. Then test lift-zone access and the full route from parking to the front door.
Price the exact home
Use close registered sales for the same bedroom group and similar unit facts. Add service charges, buying costs, furniture, repairs, and any empty period. A renovated unit may save work, but the price should match the quality and the next buyer's likely value.
Final checks
- Verify the title deed and property status.
- Confirm occupancy and handover terms.
- Check the exact service-charge position.
- Inspect air conditioning, water, appliances, joinery, and windows.
- Write down every included item.
- Compare the final two or three homes on one sheet.
