- Water pressure and hot water — run both taps and the shower
- Heating type (doğalgaz combi boiler vs. central) and its approximate age
- Mobile signal strength inside the unit, not just at the building entrance
- Noise at the time of day you'd actually be home — street noise varies hugely by hour
- Natural light direction and how much reaches the main living space
- Elevator (if any) and which floor you're actually on — "ground floor" numbering differs from some countries' conventions
- Window/door seals, especially before winter — heating costs double in Dec-Mar
- Confirm the UAVT address code and ask to see the building's registration status directly
