a new home can be incredibly stressful. There’s so much to think about, it can

According
to studies, 26% of people view their home once before buying it, while 43%
viewed the property twice, 21% three times and 11% four or more times, proving
that most house buyers feel the need to go back multiple times to make sure the
house is right for them.

have to visit a property once to find out everything you need to know before
you consider buying.
