Inspect metal gates, railings, screws, pool equipment, outdoor air-conditioning units, electrical enclosures, windows, vehicles and roof fixings for corrosion. Ask which materials and coatings were used and how frequently they are maintained. A home near the sea may need more frequent washing, repainting and replacement of hardware. Distance from the beach, prevailing wind and shelter all matter. A dry-season viewing should not be treated as proof of wet-season performance. Images, examples and location clues help turn general interest into a more focused enquiry.
