What warning signs should I look out for when viewing a property?
What you want in a property is one that works and one thats gonna be nice to live in for the time of your tenancy. So the things that you need to look out for are, is everything in good working order, might sound daf but even in the summer ask them to put the heating on, to make sure that it works because you don't want that to break down by the time it comes to winter. What you should also do, is do things like check the windows open and close, because if they don't ,it might getvery stuffy in the summertime, or rightly if you got one open and you cant close it in winter time, its very cold. You should also look for anything particularly in bathrooms and kitchens like damp, mold, any patches, any patches that look like they been newly painted and therefore covered over , even be aware of things like mousetraps. Does happen, mice get in and you don't really want to be moving into a property thats full of rodents.
