Season 1 Episode 4

Viewing a property for the first, or even the second time, is exciting. However, if you fall in love with a house and jump the gun too soon, you could end up regretting your decision.

In the fourth episode of the Move iQ podcast, Co-Host Chris Ducker quizzes Phil on how to view a property – and make it successful.

What to expect from episode four

You’ll learn what to look out for both inside and outside a property and whether you should take some time to view a property by yourself, without an estate agent.

Whether you’re viewing a house for the first, second or even third time, this episode will help prepare you to have a successful viewing so that if you do decide to move forward with an offer, you can do so with confidence.

Why tune in?

Listen in to find out:

  • The difference in viewing a house vs. viewing a flat
  • What to look for on your first viewing of a property
  • Why (and how) to ask the estate agent for time alone in the property
  • Tips for having a successful second viewing
  • How to get familiar with the property and surrounding area
  • Useful questions to ask the agent or seller
