How to make sure to check the house before transfer?

✅ include 15 Czechlists to know.

1.Floor, wall and ceiling

The pre-transfer examination of the house should start by checking the floor with no cavity or deflection tiles and checking the walls around the house that the painter is smooth, no cracks or seepage stains, and the ceiling must be in good condition, not pouring or leaking water, because these points often reflect structural and internal system problems that may require major repairs later.

2. Doors, windows and bolts

Try to open-close every door to check the tightness of the hinge and stiffness while using it. The lock bolt must work well, close completely, and not hit the door frame. The window should be open slippery, not jammed, because it affects ventilation and safety in daily life.

3. Glass, wire and silicone grout

For those who check the house by themselves, all cracks or scratches on the glass, including the wire screen condition (if any), should be tightly attached, not torn. The window frame silicone sealant marks should always be smooth, no loopholes, because they can cause water to leak or small animals to enter the house.

4. Power system, plug and switch

Try turning on all the lights, testing all the switches and plugs to check the operation of the power system, check if there are any lights that are not attached or if the plug is loose, as well as notice the breaker that there is a zone separation system and is installed standardized to ensure long-term safety.

5. Telephone, Internet and TV systems

New-age homes must be ready to support Internet and smart devices, so the indispensable home check list is to check LAN ports, TV slots, and plugs that they are fully available as a home and must be in a convenient location.

6. Water supply and water pipes

Try turning on water at all points, taps, sinks, showers, and toilets to test water pressure and drainage, as well as detect leakage around pipes and joints, because even a small amount of water marks can become a cumulative moisture problem in the future.

7. Bathroom sanitary

Check the sink, flush toilet, shower, and bathtub to be firmly installed. Works well. No leaks or cracks. Ready to check the incline level of the bathroom floor to ensure that the water drains down the pipe quickly. Not trapped as a basin.

8. Ventilation and air conditioning systems

Turn on the air conditioner and exhaust fan to test wind force, noise and water leakage, then check wiring points and sewerage as installed neatly, safely and without causing accumulated moisture.

9. Safety system

Check CCTV cameras (if available) and anti-theft or smoke detectors to work. Indicators must be fully lit. It is another part that people who check their homes themselves should not neglect because it is a device that helps to ensure the peace of mind of living.

10. Stairs, handrails and walkway floors

Walk up and down every step of the stairs to check the strength of the handrail and the sound of the floor while stepping on. The floor of the corridor in the house should be always smooth. There are no floors that can cause stumbling. It's another point that many people often overlook on home inspection before transfer, but it actually affects safety quite a lot, especially homes with children or the elderly.

11. Space outside the house

Explore the floor around the house, walkway and parking garage as smooth, no cracks or ground collapses, and check the drainage system when it rains that it can operate normally, without waterlogging, which can affect the structure in the long run.

12. Rainy roofs and gutters

Look from inside the house to check that the roof has no light coming in or that there is a water leak. Then walk through the outside rain gutter to check that the installation is stable. The water flows down the pipe is good. There are no leaf fragments or clogs.

13. Materials and decorative works

Check the floors, walls, and surface covering materials such as tiles, wood, or stone that there are no chipping cracks, smooth colors, and seamless edges that do not fall off, as well as see the quality of the painting and the lotus edges as being tightly attached and getting the right level because these details affect the overall beauty of the house.

14. Bute-in Space and Furniture Size

Use meter cartridges to measure the actual size of the space compared to the house type to ensure that the space is fulfilled according to the contract, and check the build-in furniture to make sure that it is attached to the wall, the straight line is symmetrical, no gaps or glue marks, can be slipped on-off.

15. Take pictures and take notes on problem points.

If a defect is found during home inspection by yourself, take a picture and write it down on the home checklist, clearly identifying the room and location, to pass it on to the correction project on the spot, and to be convenient for reexamination next time.
