Have You Determined Where You Want to Live?
Buyers have ideas on where they want to live when it comes to a town. However, their buying power may not allow them to have the house of their dreams in the town that is their first choice. Then comes the process of prioritizing their needs based on the affordability of the home and then the services a town can offer.
Everyone has different needs. The home search often centers on either work convenience or school systems for their children. Other conveniences such as specialized services, churches, shopping, highway access also play a part in picking a home site.
Is a neighborhood with children of similar ages important or access to playgrounds?
These are all the considerations that a buyer needs to consider when making their search. An real estate professional has access to all of this information with the tools offered in their Multiple Listing Service provider.
Walk-ability scores are available. This provides an indication of the services offered within a walking distance of the home. These services can be restaurants, schools, shopping, churches, etc.
Demographics of a neighborhood are also available as an indication of the ages of the residents and even a range of household incomes.
There are many considerations that need to be addressed when choosing a home, and choosing the right agent will get you these answers.
