About this episode
Most buyers fall in love with the staging… then realize too late they didn’t “buy the house”—they bought the street. In this episode of The Real Estate Podcast, Ariel Kormendy and Adrian Trott break down how to spot red flags (and green flags) in the neighbours, the upkeep, the parking, the noise, and even where road/park lights hit at night—plus why a second visit can change everything.VIDEO SECTIONS & TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro1:47 The mistake newbie buyers make3:55 Don't let staging distract you5:33 A checklist for surveying the streets6:21 Upstairs-window check7:54 Wear-and-tear signals12:16 The two-visit rule: daylight AND night-time perspective14:46 Viewing in the winter?15:09 Outro/recapWatch on YouTube:https://youtube.com/kormendytrottListen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1pwncyet9NydbgTmx5D21kLinktree:https://linktr.ee/kormendytrottInstagram:https://instagram.com/kormendytrottYouTube:https://youtube.com/kormendytrottFacebook:https://facebook.com/kormendytrottX:https://x.com/kormendytrottLinkedIn:https://linkedin.com/company/ktrealtyTikTok:https://tiktok.com/@kormendytrottThe Kormendy Trott Team was formed in 2011 by Ariel Kormendy and Adrian Trott.
