When viewing a Kettering home for the first time, it’s important to go beyond the obvious and inquire about important aspects of the property. You want to know everything about the property, from the water pressure and windows to the parking options and noise.
Consider an overnight stay in Northamptonshire or as close to a Kettering property you’d like to buy to get a feel for the neighbourhood.
Before putting pen to paper, it’s wise to conduct some research on the area you wish to purchase in, regardless if you’ve living in Kettering your whole life, as every street is different.
To get a feel for a Kettering house you’re looking to purchase, it’s recommended to spend a minimum of 30 minutes viewing.
Because of the high demand for housing in Northamptonshire, viewing appointments may be limited. Schedule your Kettering house viewings when you’re well-slept and off work.
Thoroughly inspect the Kettering house exterior by walking around. Inspect the roof for loose or missing tiles, damaged guttering, and wet, hairline cracks in the walls.
It is not required that the Kettering seller disclose any defects. They can attempt to conceal them. Some common examples of cover-ups include painting over damp mould or using furniture or rugs to hide holes in the wall or floor.
Viewing a Kettering house multiple times is still recommended, even in a market where properties are selling quickly, so you can catch and resolve issues.

Mortgage companies often ask for a “valuation survey,” which is distinct from a home inspection in that it does not assess the Kettering property’s current condition. Even if you pay for a valuation survey, you might not see the results; the survey verifies the Kettering property’s approximate value for the lender.
