Check:
1. heater and a/c
2. all sinks and showers
3. all outlets
4. phone plugs (I bought a new place and they f'd up the plugs, so only 2 of 3 work)
5. all cable hookups (see #4 - same thing)
6. all switches
7. all appliances - try EVERYTHING
8. all cabinets - make sure they are working, solid, etc.
9. write all this downthis is all for a new place, I can only imagine how much bigger it'd be for a used one
oh, and get two brokers to compete for you, I got my interest rate down to 5.375%, or about half a point. People were shocked that I got one so low (I bought a loft here in Denver about 2 months ago).
Good luck.
Oh, good advice: "don't buy a soso place, get something nice". I stretched things, but am loving it and I will love it for a loooong time.
Cheers.
