PropertyRecord.com Tips on What to Ask a Home Seller


Buying a new home isn't just about looking up public information on PropertyRecord.com. You also have to do your own research. The staff at PropertyRecord.com understands this process, and we have helped people go through it many times.

One of the main things we've noticed that can help PropertyRecord.com customers make the right decision about a home is asking the right questions of the current homeowner. So, we figured we'd share some questions that PropertyRecord.com customers should always ask anyone selling a home.


1.    Why are you selling the home? Ask yourself if their answers make sense, or if they are trying to just escape a money pit.
2.    What is your experience with the local school system? A bad school system lowers property values.
3.    How much do you spend each year to keep the home running? This is very important.
4.    Are you friendly with the neighbors? If they are not, then the neighbors may be huge problems.
5.    When was the last time you renovated the home? If it's been years, there could be problems.
6.    What is the ground water like? You don't want to have to deal with hard water.
7.    When was the last time the insulation was changed? If it was back in the '70s, there may be problems with asbestos.
8.    When was the last time pest control service was brought in? This is so you know if there are bug problems.
9.    Can I see the property inspector report? You want to make sure it's up to code.
10. Are you willing to do any repairs before closing? Make them pay for it – not you.

PropertyRecord.com Psyched That Microsoft Changed Course On Xbox One

Let us let you in on a little secret about how things work here at PropertyRecord.com. In our break room, we have an Xbox 360 and when we have some downtime, the PropertyRecord.com staff is very competitive with each other on it – particularly with Call Of Duty. So, we were looking forward to Microsoft's announcement of the Xbox One next generation gaming console.

But when we heard about some of the limitations on it, we were disgusted – as was much of the gaming community - and had decided not to buy one. This is why we were delighted this morning at PropertyRecord.com to learn that Microsoft has listened to the people and gotten rid of the “features” that angered the gaming community.

The first feature that upset people was the fact that to use the Xbox One, you were going to need an always-on Internet connection. We know at PropertyRecord.com from dealing with our customers that many people in rural areas have spotty Internet. That would have meant that for large parts of the day, they would not have been able to use their expensive game consoles. Now, Microsoft has said that they are redesigning the game so that you don't need the Internet at all to use it.


The second feature that upset people was that Microsoft was going to use technology to make it impossible to share games with your friends, sell the games you bought, or buy used games. Let's face it; not everyone can afford new games. And one of the ways you can discover great games is by trying one title in the series used ,and if you like it, buying new versions of other titles in the series. This is how we discovered Assassin’s Creed.

Beyond that, this feature would have put many mom-and-pop used game businesses out of business. Now Microsoft has said that they will remove the DRM so that you will be able to buy and sell used games and share them with your friends.

This shows that Microsoft, like PropertyRecord.com, listens to its customers. And it's let us know we'll have an Xbox One in our break room later this year.

Why The Records At PropertyRecord.com Are Legit

Buying a home can be a stressful experience. You want to make sure you are getting a legitimate deal on the home and not getting ripped off. PropertyRecord.com understands that this could be the main reason why you chose to come to our site and considered buying public real estate records from us. With that being said, you may also be asking yourself how you can be certain that our reports are legit.

It's a fair question, because most people don't know the laws governing public real estate records. They think that they may be private, and if so, that it will be unlikely for us to have legit access to these records.

So what's the truth? Our records are not only legit, but we also have a legitimate reason to have access to them. You see, the government has decided that it is in the public interest for these records to be available to the public. But they also understand that it can be hard for the public to get at them themselves, because they'd have to contact dozens of government agencies.

Therefore, to give you access to these public records on a larger scale, they make them available to companies like us that want to give you a legit way to get at them.

The reason that the government wants you to have access to legit public records is simple! You paid for the records to be created in the first place! Think about it – it's your tax dollars that pay the salaries of the people who create the records. It pays for their computers, their paper, and even the chairs they sit on. That means you own the records, because you've paid for them. Therefore, you have a legit right to the records.

That's how PropertyRecord.com can give you legitimate property records all the time. If they are public records, then it's totally legit to want to review them. And we will always make sure you can so that you get a legit real estate deal. Read what others are saying about our services today!
