Explaining drawbacks honestly: one sentence per measured drawback

At the viewing someone asks about December. The talking points have one sentence for every measured drawback: what is measured, where it comes from — position or condition — and what it means day to day. On the page to copy, in the report as a sheet of its own.

Explained, not left out

A listing likes to leave out the uncomfortable, and that is exactly what shows at the viewing: a courtyard in December, an approach corridor, a loud street side. Whoever names it first leads the conversation — whoever keeps quiet loses it. The talking points turn every measurement into a sentence that can be said without glossing over anything.

What is computed — and where it stops

🗣Light and the building opposite · measuredUnder two hours of December sun on the front, a sentence with the reason — the building opposite with its distance and height, June alongside. Without a known front the figure applies all round, and the sentence says so.
🗣Neighbours, aircraft, noise, heat · measured and modelledWhat the neighbours may still build as the loss on the hardest reference day, the approach corridor with runway and distance, the streets from "lively" upwards, the heat index from "heat-prone" upwards — modelled, not a measured temperature.
🗣Registers and building law · officialEvery register entry at the address and the reservations of building law — protection zone, building ban, World Heritage, residential zone — in one sentence that says what it means.

Every sentence separates position from condition: "that is the position of the house, not the condition of the flat" is the most useful thing a buyer can be told, because it says what a renovation changes and what it does not. What is not measured produces no sentence; an empty sheet does not mean "free of", and it says so.

Frequently asked

Can I leave a sentence out?

No. A measured drawback is never removed, only explained better — that applies to the talking points as to the whole report. A figure is corrected only when the measurement gets better, not when the result is uncomfortable.

Who is it for?

For the viewing: the agent who gets asked and the buyer who wants to ask. The text copies with one tap and appears word for word in the report.

Is it a valuation?

No. They are sentences from measurements with their source and their limit — no expert opinion, no effect on price, no traffic light.

Why is there a drawback I cannot see?

Because it is measured. "Lively" for the street means the value of the official environmental noise mapping for the surrounding streets — a courtyard side is often ten to fifteen decibels below it, and the sentence says that too.

Is it available in English?

On the page the text follows the browser language; the sheet "For the conversation" in the report is in German.

All measurements · For agents & developers · The light check

Basis: the same measurements as the report — the City of Vienna roof model and zoning (CC BY 4.0), the 2022 environmental noise mapping, the approach paths of Vienna Airport, the modelled heat index. Sentences from measurements, not an expert opinion.
