Can't Get a Date? Buy a Home.

By
Real Estate Agent with GoodFit Homes (with Keller Williams)

For singles looking to make themselves more attractive to the opposite sex, apparently being a homeowner is a big draw. According to CNNMoney, a recent survey shows that over one third of women would "much rather" date a homeowner than a renter. Eighteen percent of men would prefer dating a gal with her own digs.

If those numbers don't impress you, consider this: in the same survey, only two percent of women and three percent of men said they would prefer to date a renter over a homeowner.

And bad news if you're among those who've had to move back in with mom and dad for whatever reason: Fewer than five percent of all respondents said they'd date someone who lives in their childhood home. See the full story here.

So, singles: you can consider the keys to your own home the same as a peacock's brilliant feathers, telegraphing your desirablility to everyone around you. Consider us your very own Cupid this Valentine's Day. Maybe the white picket fence should come before the wedding bells.
