    maybe ask what kind of things they would expect you to be getting in place between your pre-reg and first graded inspection?

    good luck!

    You'll probably find yourself just asking questions during the visit, I didn't prepare any questions to ask but I know I asked alot during the visit. Mine was about 4 weeks ago and it was much better than I thought, I was nervous beforehand. I had all my policies, risk assessments etc ready but she didn't really go into them in depth. Just did a tour of the house to see which rooms I was going to use, she added things that would help or improve areas. Looked at the garden, then sat and mostly just typed all the things into her computer. She looked at my pre-reg booklet briefly and asked one question about safeguarding and signs of possible abuse. It was quite relaxed actually and she even helped me reduce paperwork already! Good luck and it will be fine I'm sure!!
