Final Property Walkthrough Before Title Transfer
The final walkthrough compares what was promised with what will actually be handed over
Before title transfer or the final payment, begin with the contract, specifications and included-item schedule rather than a general visual tour. Confirm the correct unit, visible layout, doors, windows, flooring and finishes, kitchen and bathrooms, appliances included in the price, heating and cooling, water and electricity. Operable items should be tested and defects photographed with location and date.
Do not collapse every observation into “minor repairs.” Give each defect a description, responsible party, target correction date and before/after status. If the contract provides a mechanism for withholding or linking part of payment to correction, follow that contract rather than inventing a new remedy on handover day. A defect affecting safe or essential use should not be treated the same as a cosmetic scratch.
The walkthrough also counts keys and access cards, checks parking and storage, and records utility meters and the agreed furniture or equipment. Distinguish transfer of possession from legal title if they occur on different dates. The final handover minute should list anything still open so that a signature acknowledging possession cannot later be misread as confirmation that every defect was resolved.
The final walkthrough tests the agreed physical condition immediately before transfer
Inspect close to the title-transfer date and, where vacant delivery was agreed, after the seller's belongings have been removed. Bring the sale agreement or agreed condition list so the inspection is tied to actual promises. Test doors, windows, water, electricity, heating/cooling and included appliances rather than relying on appearance alone.
Compare against earlier photographs or inspection notes and record new damage or incomplete repairs. Count keys and access cards and verify parking/storage rights that form part of the deal; take meter readings where they help establish the handover cut-off. A tenanted property requires a different handover path covering the tenant, deposits, keys and rent position.
A material problem discovered on completion day should be converted into a written solution rather than a parking-lot promise. Repair, documented price adjustment or another agreed mechanism must be clear before signing. The physical walkthrough and the legal title/encumbrance check remain separate controls; neither proves the other.
For a material technical repair, record whether the buyer actually re-inspected it or relied on the seller's completion statement; those are different levels of evidence.
