We have not had to worry much about if its light out with summers long days. But now that we are trending back toward days where the sun will be down before 8pm its important to be prepared as you look at homes.
Since most homes are vacant BANK FORECLOSURE type of homes you never know if the power is off or if some of the lights are out. Definitely bring a flashlight when looking at homes. Equally important is the fact that BANK FORECLOSURES tend to have more defects. So seeing these homes in the day light is optimal. Repairs can be costly, so if you do make an offer on something that you did not get a good look at it is wise to get a home inspection.
Homes in Minnesota have been moving fast all summer and that should continue with the deadline for the tax credit right around the corner. So adjust your schedule to maximize your chances of picking the right home!
