How can I be sure I´m buying the right house in a new city?

Neighborhood Watch and Learn

When the home purchase is getting down to one or two choices, go back to the house(s) as often as you need to. Talk to the neighbors. Ask about schools and doctors, traffic flow patterns, and baby-sitters. Your future neighbors will love to tell you what they find appealing or not. Look around. If a landscape eyesore is visible, these are the people to ask if any plans for renovation or renewal are in the works and the expected date(s) of completion.
