Up in the night?

Wanda, when a buyer want to make sure they will be happy in a home, they should do drive-bys and walks through the neighborhoods at different times of the day and the week to get comfortable with the area.

Wanda, yes it is very important that an interested buyer drive the neighborhood at different times of the day and night, and at different times during the week.

Excellent advice, Wanda Kubat-Nerdin!  Visiting at all times of the day and night ... doing some homework regarding the neighborhood as well as the property itself ... visiting with potential neighbors?  Very important steps to take to insure you'll be happy with your new home in every way after your purchase ...

Wanda,

What an excellent perspective!  Visiting at night definitely gives added information.  Wishing you a great weekend.  A

     Some friends bought a house at the end of a cul-de-sac (they used another Agent).  At night, all the cars turning around at that dead end shine their headlights directly into the living room of that house.  So, they have to use very heavy, very dark drapes and keep them closed.  

Great advise Wanda Kubat-Nerdin. Viewing a property at night also completely changes the feel of the inside of the home as well.

Wanda Kubat-Nerdin  - I encourage my buyers to go look at the house and neighborhood at all times of the day and night, and talk to neighbors.   Good ideas!

Yes this is a good thing to do. I always get the clients to drive the neighborhood at odd hours to see what it is like at these times.

Right now it is dark so early that I am doing most showings on weekends. I tell my clients to drive home from work to the neighborhoods they like to check the commute, noise and feeling. It seems to be a great way for them to narrow down their search. 

Good afternoon Wanda. What a focused and important post. Great advice.

I truly admire your attention to detail
