Compare the total obligation
A small monthly figure does not describe the full commitment. Start with the total price, then list booking, confirmation, ballot, allocation, development, documentation, transfer and possession amounts separately. Record whether each charge is included, estimated or payable in addition.
Use one dated schedule for the comparison. Screenshots and verbal quotations can become misleading when availability or terms change.
Map payments to milestones
Every payment should have a due date or a clearly defined project milestone. Ask what happens if a milestone moves, whether instalments continue during a delay and which written document controls in case of a conflict.

Project visuals describe the intended character. Availability, dimensions, approvals, prices, schedules and delivery must be checked against current issued documents before any decision.
