Viewing an Open House
Doors and windows:
Check that doors and windows fit snugly in their jambs and operate
smoothly. Look for flaked paint and loose caulking. If the wood around
windows and doors is not protected from moisture, it can rot away. Feel
for drafts in these areas too.
Here are some considerations and common problem areas to look for
when touring an open house:
