When you're viewing your potential new
house
it's a good idea to ask lots of
questions
questions like where are the local
schools and crashes
bus and train routes sport and social
clubs
how close is the house to road networks
are there greener play areas for
children
are there any future developments
planned
what is the orientation of the house for
example
is the rear garden north or south facing
is there sufficient parking
is there potential for future extension
don't forget to ask the builder or
estate agent about the materials used to
build a house
for example is the house concrete built
that means that the inner leaves of the
external walls
internal walls and party walls or
concrete are the stairs and floors made
of concrete
concrete is naturally water and fire
resistant concrete walls and floors
also provide a high level of sound
insulation meaning a more comfortable
and safer living environment
confirm the energy rating of the house
with its natural thermal mass properties
concrete wall and floor construction
along with current high standards of
insulation
provide an energy efficient home saving
you money on your energy bills and doing
your bit for the environment over the
lifetime of the building
it's advisable to engage a professional
to complete a snag list on a newly built
home
or a structural and conditioned survey
on an existing house
they will inspect for any minor or major
defects and give you peace of mind
before you make your final decision.
