The Complete Guide to Property Viewings

A property viewing is your best chance to catch what photos and descriptions conceal, so approach it with a plan rather than pure enthusiasm. Engage all your senses: listen for traffic and noisy neighbors, note any damp smells, and check water pressure and how the home feels temperature-wise. Bring a checklist and take photos of anything that concerns you. It is easy to forget details after visiting several homes in a single day. Do not be afraid to ask direct questions about why the owner is selling, how long it has been on the market, and what is included. The answers are often revealing.
