- Whether road access changes rebuildability, contractor access, or year-round use
- How water, sewer, septic, well, and LPG setup affect ongoing cost and renovation scope
- Which local climate or terrain factors add recurring cost beyond the asking price
- Whether subsidy timing, residency rules, and intended use still fit the purchase path
