The First Question You Ask

Zachary Scott
Posted

As someone that's new to REI I just wanted to know, what are some questions you ask yourself when looking at a house before you buy? Also, are there any questions that have to be a "Yes" or have to be a "No"? Pretty much any deal breakers.

@Zachary Scott IMO, I believe this could be pretty subjective but I think it would depend on your comfort level and risk avoidance regarding certain things, e.g. rancher on a waterfront lagoon in terms of flooding issues, age of the home and potential termite issues resulting in structural damage, roof condition and what could be underneath of it from leaks. Just about any house can be a good deal if the numbers work for it. Personally, I think the "ugly" ones stand out to me because I can see the potential as long as the numbers work out.
