The phrase is sometime totally misunderstood. The most important factor when buying a home is the location by far. However, the location is relative to the price range and community desired. The best location is most desired but the best location with homes in the price range is more practical. We can't all live in Beverly Hills or The Hamptons which would be highly desired locations.
The best location for the price is determined by several factors including:
- Safety
- Quality of Schools
- Demand for the homes
- Commute
- Closeness to Freeway
Also within the best community there are factors that make a location the best including:
- Traffic Noise
- Size of lot and backyard
- View
- Pool
- Neighboring Homes
One of the best tests to determine whether one location is more desirable is to check on the same or similar sized homes sale prices at the peak of the market. Another is to check on how long it takes for reasonably priced homes to sell in the comparable communities.
