Hello everyone,  This will be my first time viewing a home and wanted to know if anyone  has any tips or suggestions on the questions I should ask, how should I "act". I also look pretty young for my age(26), some people still think I'm about 18 or 19, so I'm kinda worried I won't be taken serious :( .

K.D.,

Don't worry about it.  The only thing that the seller is concerned about is selling his house.  Very important to be natural and find out why he wants to sell.  If you can get a price from him, great.  If not, no biggie.  Try to find out mortgage balance.  By walking through the house you should get an idea of the condition it's in regarding repairs/updates. 

Be natural, when you don't know the answer be honest.  Tell him you don't know but you will get back to him.............Good luck
