A common mistake is finalising a budget without accounting for registration charges, brokerage, interior costs and moving expenses — all of which add up beyond the quoted property price. Another is skipping a physical site visit in favour of photos or virtual tours alone, which can hide issues like poor ventilation or construction quality.
Buyers also sometimes rush documentation checks under pressure to "close the deal quickly," which is precisely when oversights happen. Taking a few extra days to verify title and approvals rarely costs you the property, but skipping that step can cost you far more later.
Slowing down at the right moments is usually the difference between a smooth purchase and a stressful one.
