Tales of the Unexpected: Unusual Questions Home Buyers Might Ask

You can always tell when someone is really interested in buying your home by the number of questions they ask.

There are the usual suspects like:

·      What are the neighbours like?
·      Is it easy to park?
·      And how much is council tax?

But be prepared for some unexpected queries like these:

Delving into the depths
Buyers may ask about the land’s history, geological stability or the prospect of flooding, so prepare yourself with local knowledge.


Connectivity is key
Broadband speeds are a high priority for many buyers. Ask your wi-fi provider for details so you can discuss megabits per second.


Energy factor
Be ready to shed light on your home’s energy credentials and to discuss what type of insulation you have or any other green features, such as solar panels.



Garden life
Sun-chasers and shade-seekers alike will want to know if your home is south-facing for all-day sun or north-facing for delicate plants.
