Do you ever wonder if you should go meet the neighbors before you buy a house? If you think about it, they will be a large part of your home experience! I think it's important to meet them and learn about the neighborhood before you make one of the biggest purchases in your life.
I found this article on about.com and it gives a list of questions you should ask:
- How long have you lived in the neighborhood?
- What do you like best about living here?
- What do you like least about the neighborhood?
- If you could change one thing about this street, what would it be?
- Do all the neighbors get along with each other?
- Have you ever noticed anything odd about this house or yours?
- How is the crime in this area -- has anything happened around here?
- How quiet is the neighborhood? Are there nuisances?
- Do you know why the seller is selling this house?
- What has the owner of this house complained about to you?
