Buyers: Why You Shouldn't Overlook the Garage
Odds are that your house-hunting wish list includes the location, number of bedrooms, updated kitchen, and maybe a patio. But the condition of the garage may be an afterthought. After all, you'll just use the space to store your vehicles, right? The garage may just be a storage area, but you need to be on the lookout for hidden problems to make sure you're making the right home investment. Whether you're viewing Klamath homes for sale on video tours or in person, here's what you should look for in the garage.
- Parking Space
Storing your vehicles in a garage protects them from the elements and vandalism. You don't want to find out after you've purchased the house that the garage cannot accommodate your vehicles. During your showing or virtual tour, be sure to ask about the garage dimension. If you have larger SUVs, recreational equipment, bikes, or a trailer, knowing the size of the garage is essential. Find out the ceiling height and be on the lookout for beams that could provide extra storage for equipment and sporting goods.
