Start with your regular journeys, the space you need and the kind of surroundings you enjoy. A striking view is one part of the picture; the everyday experience matters too.
Visit shortlisted areas at different times if possible. Explore access routes, nearby amenities and the relationship between the project and its wider neighbourhood.
Ask what is already in place and what is planned. Distinguish an existing amenity from a proposal when comparing projects.
Bring your questions.
A conversation can help you identify the project documents and information to request next.
