    Recommended next step

    Arrange a viewing and use the insights below to guide your questions.

    The property does not highlight any specific concerns at this stage. A viewing will allow you to assess condition firsthand and ask about areas of interest.

    What stands out

    • Off-plan
    • Previous sale fell through
    • Heat pump heating system
    • Garage recorded

    Worth checking

    • Whether the completion date is contractual, and what's included in the price

      Off-plan purchases are reserved before the property is built — confirm whether the completion date is a binding contractual term or an estimate, what exactly is included in the advertised price versus offered as an optional upgrade, and the terms of any booking or reservation deposit.

    • Reason the previous sale did not complete

      A sale that falls through can have many causes, including survey findings, mortgage issues, or buyer withdrawal. Understanding why helps you assess the risk.

    What to prepare for

    • Request the full specification list, the contract terms around your booking deposit, and written confirmation of what's included versus optional.

      Buying off-plan means committing before the property exists — getting these in writing protects you if the finished home differs from what was shown.

    • Ask the agent or solicitor what caused the previous sale to fall through.

      Knowing whether the issue was survey-related, financial, or procedural helps you assess the risk before committing.
