| Priority | Question | Practical check |
|---|---|---|
| Station access | Which entrance would you use for your usual trip? | Walk from the building entrance to the station entrance. |
| Construction and exposure | What faces the bedroom and main windows? | Check current conditions at the property; do not rely on older photos. |
| Space for daily life | Where will your furniture and work setup go? | Compare measured usable rooms, not just the bedroom count. |
| Budget | What is included in the advertised rent? | Compare rent plus parking, utilities, internet, and travel costs. |
If your commute is the priority, bring the destination and the times you need to travel so the shortlist can reflect your actual routine.
