Before you travel
Obtain the entrance pin, contact arrangements and complete plot reference. Decide which locations you will view and prepare questions about access, levels and the relevant documentation. Confirm access arrangements before departure.
At the location
Record the street and plot references shown, photograph the approach and observe the ground and surroundings. Ask which features are existing and which are planned. A visit is a chance to identify questions, not to replace a document check.
After the visit
Compare your observations with the map and written proposal. Have discrepancies resolved and arrange specialist checks if required. Keep the financial decision separate from the pressure of making a same-day commitment.
Frequently asked questions
What should I bring to a site visit?
Bring the full plot reference, relevant map, questions and contact arrangements. Record the location and follow up on discrepancies.
Does a site visit replace verification?
No. It helps you inspect the location; document and financial checks remain separate.
