Stop by the local police department and see how many runs may have been made in the neighborhood
3: Don’t be afraid to walk away

4. Radon testing
5. Also get it surveyed and have the corners of the lot pegged. My place. Over the years, the old owners had a hedge that grew out. When I had it surveyed. I lost about 2 ft on one side, and gained close to a foot on the other side. This is another way to keep peace with the neighbors.
