hmmm “light industrial” I found an absolute bargain on the net once, I emailed the agent a couple of times and then finally before I made the journey to inspect asked an open ended “Is there anything else pertinent to the property that I should know?” … He replied that there wasn’t so I went to inspect…

The residential house was completely surrounded by factories and 3 “houses” away from a freight railway line – it was the middle of the day in the middle of the week when I did my inspection and I couldn’t hear myself think – it was the noisiest property I’ve ever been near.

Just thought I’d drop a word of caution for anyone else considering properties over the internet that are described as “light industrial” … they could be surrounded by industrial-strength noise!
