START DURING THE WALK-THROUGH
As you walk-through a property with a realtor, one of the best pieces of advice we can give is this — ask questions when buying a home. Ask whatever pops into your mind, ask questions. Get inquisitive. Yes, ask anything under the sun. If you wonder about it, then it can’t hurt to see what the sellers have to say about it. To start you off, here are a few questions to consider:
- Ask why the seller is selling.
- Find out if any of the furniture or appliances are included in the sale.
- Seek to look under the rugs.
- Inquire about looking under the sinks.
- Is the house in a rural area? Request information about cable and internet service. Maybe it’s spotty, maybe it’s non-existent. Either way, these are just a few of potentially many things that you’d really rather know before making a decision.
