For this reason, I don't buy new and instead buy in places that have been "burned in" and where I can talk with current and previous inhabitant(s) and read complaints online. If you have "that" kind of money, you can always remodel.
Flipping it around, that due diligence can also result in amazing deals on places that non-engineers are too afraid to touch.
- Breza 6y agoAgreed all around, especially about due diligence. My wife found a house that had been on the market for months in a market where most houses were going under contract before we could get a tour. Description said it was "cozy and historic." Lots of warning signs. She booked a showing anyway. We dug did our due diligence and we've lived here happily for three years.
