Buying a home doesn't have to be stressful. Stay positive. Stop looking for the flaws. Look at the ordinary; then discover the extraordinary talent you have to make it your own! Find the artist, builder, contractor, designer; the creator in you. If you can't, there are professionals that can help you to fulfill your goals facilitating your vision.

See the beauty and the good of changing your current environment. Changing your location, physical address, and your life style will begin to evolve into a positive transformation.

Identify your stressors and discover your energizers. Reorganize your life, get rid of the clutter, those ideas and things that are distracting. Change the scenery, change your life!

Build up your strength. Discover more healthful ways of coping with stress. Stay focused! Change your mindset. Give yourself a life worth living because you deserve more good than stress. Are you looking for positive change in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex, call me!

Hey Patricia, Well said. That should be an exciting and positive experience for everybody not a headache. Definitely having a good team helps tremendously and it can safe money and time. Buyers may enjoy the process much more just by taking the significant out of the way.

It becomes stressful, when we make it stressful. Any one person in the transaction can make it stressfull.

Like everything else in life we make our own stress. All anyone can really do is their best and from there the chips fall where they may.

Great advice -- "Stop looking for the flaws." Houses, like people, are all imperfect. Great outlook to have for everything, not just real estate.

Patricia-I agree, buying a home should not entail much stress. Maybe a little apprehension about financing and after making an offer waiting for a reply.

Patricia, I feel these are things agents need to tell their buyers. It is very true that buying a new home is very stressful but it doesn't necessarily have to be. Find your stressors and minimize them! And a Happy New Year to you as well!
