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.
