Touring a Resale Property? Here Are Things You Need Not Miss Before Buying

You often dream of owning a home in the plush and beautiful Okanagan Valley but step back due to a lack of funds. But when opportunity strikes, you simply do not want to hold yourself back from investing. Right?

Resale homes are perfect for those who are keen to avoid buying a first-hand property. If you are ready to tour Okanagan properties for sale, you are in the right place. On the website of Justin O’Connor Group, you have to explore the resale properties listed in the Okanagan area that is available at a lesser cost. But touring a second-hand property requires you to be mindful about what to view to know what you need to keep and what to leave.

Here are the things you must not miss when touring Okanagan homes for sale:

• ·    Inclusive And Non-Inclusive Items

Do you know what is generally included in a resale property? As a thumb rule, the trees planted in the garden, some of the lighting fixtures, and curtain hangers - there might also be a few special items that the seller agrees to include. But even more important is to note what the seller decides to exclude and make sure you have it mentioned on a document that is duly signed by the owner. Remember that homes are often staged for resale. So, you should not confuse with the fixtures that are here to stay.

• ·       Check The Roof

The roof is integral to every home you decide to buy. So, there shouldn’t be an exception when you tour houses for sale in Okanagan as well. The truth is that the roof tells a lot about the condition of the home and can be one of the major deciding factors when you focus on touring resale properties. Find out the signs of damage on the roof and how good or bad are they for repair. If you need to replace the roof entirely, consider it as a concession in the asking price of the property.

• ·    Décor Items

Does the house have various fixtures like hardwood flooring, cabinets, countertops, and windows? Well, you need to check the condition of various décor items and discard those you don’t want.

• ·      Storage Option

No matter how big or small is the property you will need a lot of storage space. Unfortunately, several homes compromise storage spaces for additional décor. If a home compromises a lot of storage space, you need to analyse your requirements before making the right decision.
