Is it really "All About the Price"....? Maybe Not ...

Real Estate Agent with EXP Realty 414-525-0563 57026-90 Broker

      We absolutely LOVE what we do....and it is a joy to be the southeastern Wisconsin ambassadors with referrals from other agents....our sphere, Wisconsin mapcorporations and business contacts to people who are new to the Badger state.  From the shores of Lake Michigan and the summer festivals, boating and water sports it offers to the 83  lakes found in Waukesha county...the four seasons of outdoor activities...well groomed parks and golf courses...tennis courts and hiking trails...we love being lifelong Wisconsin residents...and introducing people to the state we call home. 

        We boast an excellent education system that people treasure who enroll their children in every level from pre school through advanced university courses with outstanding systems...and universities including the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee,  Milwaukee School of Engineering and Marquette University.

     Can you have Buyer's Remorse when you "bought too low" ? Oh yes you can...in some markets at some times....a little boost in a purchase price can mean updates that are more expensive to add....a bathroom more to remodel...windows to replace.

        A Buyer's agent who is working for YOU is  important in helping you evaluate those decisions.  Should you be house poor ?  Oh no....you should not....but you may find that less than a hundred dollars a month (Hmmmm....How many Starbucks would that be ?)  you can have more of what you want for less than you would pay for a "do over."

       When you are ready to Buy or Sell in southeastern Wisconsin....Call Sally K. & David L. Hanson, Broker Associates with  Keller Williams Realty...you won't have to "do it over" ....we'll help you do it right the first time !

It is so true what you are writing about "Buying too low..."  I often tell my buyers that they will either spend money up front and get what they want or spend it later when they do remodeling and upgrading to make what they bought into what they wanted. The difference is they can often finance the higher amount up front whereas remodeling cost come out of their own pocket later on.

Sally and David price plays a big roll in the decision to purchase a home, BUT it is not all about the price.  Depending on what stage in life a family is at, schools play a huge part in their decision to purchase.  Proximity to work is also a very important factor.

Interesting.  I never spend a penny at Starbucks.  Ever!  So I guess I can put in a lot of windows!
