Missed Out On Buying A House
I kept putting it off and then the house was already sold.
I really wanted that house!

Some obvious things which you may already know about/do:
-check your neighbours ( embarrasing waiting very long, and if a problem arises, it is good to know your neighbor's beforehand.)
- find out what parking is available (do you have an allocated space? Is there room for 2 cars? Guest parking? Do you need a permit?); a bit moot if you’ve got a house with a drive, I suppose!When I did live in New York, you New Yorkers can appreciate that everywhere you want to go is probably going to require a cab.
- find out where all your water and gas cut-off taps are (before you have a problem!)
- get a small cheap toolkit together (hammer, screwdriver, ruler, etc. maybe even a drill) - fortunately I live with my brother and I can borrow his...haMake sure you have a torch at hand in case of a power failure!
