I have been working with a buyer for several days that just sold their home in San Diego. They are retiring here in Cedar City to be near their grandchildren. They narrowed down their Cedar City purchase to 2 homes. One home was absolutely the home of their dreams. They could have stretched to buy it but chose the practical home. Was that the right decision when there are so many beautiful bargains at such great prices from which to choose?
These good people considered many things beyond the price. They had cash, so loan rates were not a problem. The big road blocks to choosing the luxury home seemed to be higher property taxes, maintenance costs, and utilities in the larger home. They have both worked for many years and wanted some extra money for travel and to enjoy life in their retirement. In their case, the practical home is their dream home because they are following their dreams.
I believe these buyers made the right decision for them. For others, stretching to the maximum would be the ideal. There is no right or wrong answer as to whether to go for the practical or luxury home. The most important dream can only be decided by the individual.
