What to look for when purchasing a Home
What to look for when purchasing a home can vary from client to client, location to location and what is the budget.
So many buyers want that perfect house to call home.  It’s important for us their real estate agents to guide and education them on the process.  We need to help them self-discover.  Is this a property they will be living in for 1-3 years, 3-5 years or their forever home? (Which we all know is never the case regardless of what they say)
When I speak with my buyers I always suggest to them to make a list of their needs vs their wants.  I remind them that if they were to build their perfect dream home as soon as it was completed, it would be darn I should have thought of adding this or that.  By having a conversation with them, and helping them self-discover we can make their home buying process easier by eliminating certain properties and making sure other ones are included.  By having a needs vs wants list it allows us to see how much of the properties we are looking at meet those wants and needs and therefore keep them on the list or remove them ... more
