Crucial you find a buyer's agent... Not one who might try to sell you one where they're the selling agent...
Also learn neighborhood bylaws... Avoid HOA like the plague they are, but city laws can be nuts sometimes too. I was once threatened with hundreds/day fine for failing to mow my very flooded back yard. Had to get out the waders and submerge the weed whacker in places to become compliant. That was fundemantally a neighbor problem though. Those neighbors ended up costing us when we sold...30% loss vs purchase. Is what it is. Helped make it possible to buy the place we're in now, and we learned so much.
