Is it OK to ask the seller for additional photos and a revisit later on?

    If I was the vendor I'd suggest you come around and take whatever photos and view whatever you wanted, that's assuming you are local to where you are buying.

    We were buying a long way from home, and were considering a loft conversion so asked if the vendors would take a couple of photos of the loft. They very kindly did so and (hopefully) didn't think we were total weirdos. So I don't think it's too much of an unusual request.

    When I viewed my house I made a video of it using a video camera the entire time around. That meant I could go back and pause it anywhere I wanted to look at every little detail and could watch it back as much as I wanted after the viewing. It's such a useful thing to do I'm surprised more people don't do it.
