  • Going for a second viewing and meeting the sellers on Thurs. Victorian terrace with relatively recent side return and loft conversion.

    What do you wish you had double checked/looked twice at before you bought your house?
    What do you wish you had asked the sellers if you had the chance?

  • Your place is in such good order I feel like I wouldn't be worrying too much!

    Howard's points are pretty comprehensive. I'd take photos of the boiler and consumer units, make sure you get the model number/names.

    Knocking on the neighbour's doors is definitely a good idea, we did it for that place we got beaten to by the cash buyer, but haven't done it for the place we're buying now because asking someone to keep their door open for a chat in this weather seems like a big ask, it's not like they can ask you in and some people might not even be comfortable having a doorstep conversation at the moment given the whole pandemic thing.

    This is why we have stalked ours instead ;)

    (Not entirely joking, we have a reasonable sense of both sides!)
