Would you buy a property if it ticked every box...

This bit stands out to me. You would have thought that the people who are buying the other properties would at least have looked into this one. What is it about the house that it hasn't sold?We have seen a property well within our budget, location good for what we need, needs a little bit of cosmetic work but this is not a problem, kids love it, has an extra bedroom to what we need, lots of parking space.... but we don't know why we haven't made an offer!! We can't put our finger on why this is! On paper it is perfect but in reality we just don't know.
It has been on the market for a year but although other properties around it are selling, this hasn't. We are not overly keen on how it looks outside but could make it look really fab inside with not too much money.
Have you used property bee to see if it has been reduced?
If the pricing is right, then could it be that a survey has found things about it?
Bear in mind that although you say you can do the inside up nicely, it is the outside that people will see first when you come to resell it.0
