GROWTH | Condo Turnover Punchlist

It's an exciting moment when you get a call from your Property Account Manager telling you that the condo you've just purchased is ready for turnover! After paying several 5 digit monthly payments over a course of several years, you  are about to see what you've bled and slaved for the past years - in the flesh. This an overwhelming event, more so if it would be your first time to accept a condo turnover.


Surrounded by newly painted walls, wrapped-in-plastic toilet and kitchen sinks and overly helpful turnover managers, final turnover inspection is a fairy tale affair, until the pixie dust fades and the minor but unpleasant "oversights" start showing their true colors.

Doorbells getting stuck, non-working mechanical vents and hollow-under-the-tile flooring are some of the "gremlins" we've avoided by following  this simple yet effective punch list we use before we accept a condo we've just recently purchased. It has done wonders and helped both buyer and seller meet mutual expectations.
