Viewing Checklist for Culverland Road

• Check walking time to your specific department building, not just "campus"
• Ask about parking permits - most streets require them and availability is limited
• Walk the route from Culverland Road to your campus at the time you'd normally travel
• Check mobile signal strength in every room - older buildings can have weak spots
• Test all taps, showers, and the boiler - ask when it was last serviced
• Look for signs of damp, especially in ground floor and basement rooms
• Check which way bedrooms face - north-facing rooms are cooler but darker
• Ask about bin collection days and where bins are stored
