Things to look for on FIRST WALKTHROUGH

[Joseph Blauwiekel]

Hello,

My wife and I are doing long distance buy and holds and we're going to spend a day in Michigan looking at a few properties next week.

Question: What specifically should I look for on first ever walk in?  My internal checklist has me combing the exterior for roof/gutter/siding damage, check the garage, inside check all flooring/ceilings/walls, how the house is heated, age of furnace/HWH, age/wear of appliances/showers/toilets, basement check for cracking walls/signs of water, attic - mold.

What's this rookie missing? I intend to take a lot of pictures.
