Documents to prepare
Keep listings, messages, quotes, surveys, minutes and evidence in chronological order. Anything unwritten is hard to prove or budget.
Budget and timing
Keep listings, messages, quotes, surveys, minutes and evidence in chronological order. Anything unwritten is hard to prove or budget. Do not budget only for the headline fee or purchase price; include translation, tax, insurance, advice, maintenance and delay reserves.
Risks and traps
Look beyond the headline price: fees, tax, permits, maintenance, seasonality and resale can transform the result. Put essential conditions in writing.
