But the best way is for the realtor to go to each new area when there is no construction going on and make notes on which specific streets are noisy.
Then if you come across a customer that is concerned about the noise (ie my wife and I) you can be up front and not even show homes on those streets. There might be buyers remorse down the road after it's to late.

Do you have a hire car or golf cart? When we bought we went out to our preferred areas early morning and late at night to listen to the noises. We bought in Chitty Chatty and picked an area on the lake. No sounds from the traffic but boy did the insects make a racket! We looked at the other side of the village and there was only minor traffic noise - the odd car - but then there weren't the bugs in the woodland.
