A useful home visit should help you decide whether a property deserves closer consideration, not force an immediate offer. Before you tour, I'll help you identify the questions that matter to your purchase.
The latest market report includes Reston's single-family homes, condos, townhouses and apartments. The number of homes listed for sale in the latest market report was 216. The typical time on market for homes that sold was 19 days. That marketing duration describes sold homes, not the time available to arrange a visit to a particular listing.
Prepare your questions before visiting so you can spend your attention on the home's actual fit and condition. A reported listing total is not a list of homes available for you to tour today. I would keep the decision about making an offer separate from the excitement or disappointment of the visit.
Choose the must-have features you will check in person, including layout, storage and the spaces you expect to use. Record condition questions during the visit and identify which concerns need an inspector's assessment rather than your assumption. Verify the home's listing status and any offer instructions with me before deciding whether to proceed.
