Owning a property in Prague is a long-term capital play, but the "buy and hold" strategy only works if the asset doesn't degrade. In a city where temperatures swing from -10°C in January to +35°C in August, your apartment undergoes significant thermal stress every year.
To avoid "Technical Debt" and keep your rental yield high, TUTEL recommends this essential annual checklist.
01 -- Post-Winter Check
The Thermal Envelope
Spring is the best time to inspect the exterior boundaries of your unit.
02 -- The "Leak Prevention" Audit
Water & Waste
Water damage is the #1 cause of insurance claims in Prague apartments.
03 -- A "Tight" Apartment Needs to Breathe
HVAC & Air Quality
A sealed apartment needs active ventilation management to prevent mold.
04 -- Safety & Longevity
Electrical Safety & Appliances
Two annual checks that protect both lives and appliance lifespans.
05 -- Early Warning Walkthrough
Common Areas
Your apartment's value is tied to the building. Once a year, walk the shared spaces.
