A home at a low price may be no bargain at all if the maintenance costs are prohibitive. Find out when the house was last painted and re-roofed. Ask the seller to provide copies of utility bills so you can accurately budget the ongoing cost of your home purchase.

Many homes in the miami real estate market have a swimming pool or a spa, and if you don´t have the time or expertise to do pool cleaning or maintenance, find out what the current owner pays to maintain those amenities.
