Webchat: Home buyers workshop
If you’re thinking of buying a property then join us at 3pm today for a comprehensive guide on what you should be checking before your buy
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Buying a home is the single biggest purchase you’ll ever make. But how many of us really do our homework before making this huge commitment?
Unlike when buying a car, we can’t take our potential new home for a test drive round the block. The reality is that at best you might get a few quick viewings over the space of a couple of weeks before having to sign on the dotted line.
Unfortunately, this lack of research time can see many new home owners hit by unexpected problems that can drain their finances and leave them questioning whether they’ve made the right decision.
So how can you make sure that your dream home doesn’t turn into a nightmare? Are you aware of all the costs that have to be considered? What are the biggest mistakes that home owners make before buying a property and what are the key things you should be checking out before making an offer?
Log on to our WebTV show where Azy Saii, and Peter Turner from Experian discuss what you need to look out for and demonstrate a ‘one stop shop’ solution – showing you how to use tools like the new PropertyCheck website to make sure you make the right decision.
Azy Saii and Peter Turner from Experian PropertyCheck join us here live online at 3pm.
