Why is it just before you go-to a veiwing, you have loads of questions in your mind that you are dying to ask the vendor or agent? Then when you arrive, you have simply forgotten over half of them!
Here are some important questions you should ask.
- What the transport links like?
- How far is the train station/nearest motorway/bus station?
- How many schools are nearby?
- What are the schools like? Note the names of them and check them out yourself too.
- What council tax band is the property in?
- How far are the local ammenties away? Maybe do a dummy run yourself to double check
- Is the house part of a chain or not?
- Roadside parking or garages? Is it safe, if on the road.
- Are the neighbours friendly?
Always make sure you note the property’s address, estate agent listed with (if listed with one),contact number and asking price.
Jot these down now, so you can use these as a checklist when you are been shown around.
