I would push back slightly on spending heavily just because it is a new build. Protecting the emergency fund matters too, especially with moving costs, service charges, an insurance excess and the first mortgage payment arriving close together. Get a written scope and price first, prioritise...

I would go further and not start with floor area. In a location-sensitive property, a smaller home on the better side of a development can outperform a larger one elsewhere. Map the four comparables by exact micro-location, outlook, light and noise before adjusting size. Are the parking and...

Furniture has a way of expanding to fit whatever amount is available. A written essentials cap is probably more effective than trying to choose a percentage.

Another useful question is how often the amount has changed, without assuming the past predicts the future. A stable-looking current figure and a recently revised figure present different uncertainties. Ask for the basis of the current amount rather than relying on the listing text alone.

Could you clarify what you mean by “coastal-home category” in Delhi, and which neighbourhood boundaries you are using? That description makes comparisons difficult. Two properties within the same broad search area can have very different access, condition and tenure details. Also, is the lease...

₹105,000,000. The five-bedroom count and asking price carry most weight for me. With no figure for competing local supply, I’m unwilling to treat 84 days as automatically negative—an unusual coastal home can simply take longer to match with a buyer.

I disagree slightly with putting every inspection item ahead of furniture. Safety, leaks and anything that worsens with delay obviously come first, but basic furniture can affect whether the apartment is actually usable. Make a move-in list: beds, somewhere to eat, curtains if needed and...

The strongest candidate is a shared property record rather than a prettier front end: import the listing once, attach mobile inspection entries to the same identifier, then pass the record onward without retyping the address, area and contact details. Price per square metre is where the...

Seller behaviour may explain why the saved listings look disconnected. Track the original asking price, every cut, any withdrawal and any return to market. A relisted unit can appear fresh even when the seller has been testing the market for much longer. That history also helps distinguish a...
