Have you ever liked a home but not the address? I've had this situation come up with several clients in the past. Sometimes people have superstitions about certain numbers and the numbers in their street address can actually prevent a client from buying a home. Some people avoid the number 13 or gravitate toward any multiple of seven. I never thought there was much I could do about the address issue until today.
A quick call to our county Planning and Zoning Department was all it took. I found that you can indeed, within certain guidelines, change the numerical address of your home. All it takes is an application and a $135 application fee. A quick review by department personnel will let you know what alternative house numbers are available.
Now that's a new twist to the phrase, "Change of Address"!
