Offering a 2-bedroom duplex in Santiago for CLP 578,100,000. It is approximately 200 m² and described as being in average-to-good condition. Viewings are available by appointment.

Before anyone requests documents or a viewing, please post questions here. Items already identified for clarification include the verified floor area, insurance and energy performance. Questions about title documents, service charges, fixtures and parking are also welcome.
 
The floor area needs more detail before I could assess the asking price. Is the approximately 200 m² entirely internal space, or does it include terraces, storage or parking? I would also want to know whether the figure has been verified rather than taken from an older description.
 
One more question: is parking included with the duplex, available separately, or not available? Please also clarify whether there are recurring service charges and what they cover. Those two points could materially change the overall cost.
 
I would not necessarily delay an initial viewing until every document is supplied, but the title position should at least be clear before anyone spends much time on the purchase. For the viewing itself, a list of included fixtures would help. “Average-to-good” is broad—are there any known areas needing repair or replacement?
 
The energy point could be important with roughly 200 m² to heat or cool. Is any energy-performance information currently available, and can the seller describe the main systems without making claims that have not been verified? I would ask the same of insurance: is it simply something buyers should investigate, or is there a property-specific issue behind its inclusion in the notes?
 
A practical viewing should focus on the gap between “average” and “good.” Look at finishes and fixed equipment, but also note any visible moisture, cracking, window condition and signs of deferred maintenance. Those observations would not replace a specialist inspection, but they would help decide whether to proceed to documents and further checks.
 
Agreed, although I would still get written answers on area, parking and service charges before booking. Those are basic enough to avoid a wasted appointment. Are viewing times flexible, and will someone be able to answer questions about what is included during the visit?
 
Thanks; these are useful questions. I will seek clarification on the 200 m² breakdown, whether it has been verified, parking, recurring charges, included fixtures, condition notes, energy information, insurance and the availability of title documents. I will also confirm how appointments are arranged rather than assuming particular viewing times.
