Rainy Days Could Be Best for Home Showings<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although real estate pros know many buyers may be tempted to cancel a home tour if the weather is nasty weather, they say rainy days are actually the best circumstances to view homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gail Hardy, a real estate pro in Knoxville, talks about the advantages of touring homes on a rainy day in a new TikTok video. She says a rainy day offers the potential to spot any water-related issues outside a home by watching how the water moves around a house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In her TikTok video, she shows a pool of water next to the home\u2019s foundation. She also shows how a gutter that has been clogged by rocks isn\u2019t doing its job. That gutter could be preventing water from draining away from the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A home inspector can look at a home for grading or potential water issues. But a buyer who makes a visual inspection on an inclement day can also flag potential problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buyers can also spot any potential water-related issues inside the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWater is one of the most destructive issues for a homeowner, and it also creates issues that can often be missed,\u201d Craig McCullough, a real estate pro in Washington, D.C., told Apartment Therapy. \u201cLeaks in a ceiling, moisture in a basement, and mildew smells are heightened on a rainy day. If these are new leaks, they may not have developed water stains or dissolved drywall yet.\u201d@gailsellsknoxville<\/a> Best day to look at houses? #GailSellsKnoxville<\/a>#homebuyingtips<\/a>#rainyday<\/a>#knoxvilletn<\/a>#knoxvillerealestate<\/a>#knoxvillehomes<\/a>#drainage<\/a>#gutters<\/a>\u266c original sound – Gail Hardy, Knoxville Realtor<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
