Understand “Staging” Staging refers to repainting, creative use of lights and mirrors, and more, to either make the property look more appealing, or to hide flaws.

Roof Age Staging refers to repainting, creative use of lights and mirrors, and more, to either make the property look more appealing, or to hide flaws. Know that any home you tour has been “staged,” and ask important questions about the actual work done on the home, as well as any potential problems.
Wiring Whereas several outlets were once not necessary in bedrooms, for example, plugs for phone chargers and computers are a must. Age of wiring and electrical systems is also important in determining the actual amount of power you can use simultaneously before running into trouble.
Storage Is the attic clear? Is there enough space in the basement? Don't just take closet space into consideration; storage spaces in the home can really make or break your decision, even if you don't think you need it now.
Sound Proofing To get a good night's rest, and to make sure that you aren't bothering your neighbors, and vice versa, sound proof walls are a must have if you live right next door to other homes. It gives you privacy, and keeps your atmosphere relaxing, as a home's should be.
Windows As with the roof, the age of the windows will be an indicator as to when and if they will need to be replaced in the near future. Older windows lose energy efficiency, and cost you more every month.
The Neighborhood Always visit the neighborhood of the home during three times: during the day, right after work hours, and on the weekends, so that you can gauge activity, noise, local businesses and behavior, and much more.
