Check the practical route and the documented basis for using it. Establish what utilities exist and what is still needed.
01
Approach and deliveries
Review width, turning areas and the route for construction vehicles. Ask about work required for your intended use.
02
Access documents
Have rights and responsibilities examined by your adviser. A visible track is not a documented access review.
03
Water and power
Request connection information, capacity assumptions, installation scope and maintenance responsibilities.
04
Drainage
Discuss how surface water moves through and beyond the site. Dry-weather conditions do not represent every season.
Turn reading into a useful record
Keep three columns in your working notes: the question, the source of the answer and the action still needed. Give each open issue a responsible person. Ask the relevant professional to explain the limits of their review, and preserve assumptions alongside the conclusions.
Before making a commitment
Use this checklist to prepare a more precise conversation. It does not establish rights, condition, value or suitability of any individual property. Obtain the appropriate independent advice for your transaction and confirm current requirements with the responsible authority.
