Inspect the panel and breaker layout

A panel that is hard to understand or already overloaded can become a problem after you move in.

Look for signs of hidden load issues

Hot sockets, flickering lights, and weak circuits can point to a larger issue that needs diagnosis.

Think about future use

If you plan to add an EV charger, air-conditioning, or a renovation, the system needs to support that future load.
