Gold Beach Real Estate - Factors to help you shop for your Gold Beach Home

By
Real Estate Agent with Rogue Sportsman's Realty

Before you jump into an agent's car to go look at Gold Beach Real Estate, consider two factors:

Has the agent actually previewed any of the homes?  Rogue Sportsman's Realty is committed to previewing all of the Gold Beach Homes in the real estate market.  Rogue Sportsman's Realty actively participate in weekly broker tours.

Has the agent counseled you to find out exactly what you want?  The brokers at Rogue Sportsman's Realty are invested in your satisfaction.  We want to sit down with you and understand your real estate wants and needs.  We're happy to meet with you anytime - during business hours or not.  Just give us a call!

Determine Your Specific Home Parameters

First-time home buyers are often limited by home pricing, but Rogue Sportsman's Realty will be able to suggest alternative areas if a buyer is unwilling to compromise.

Make pre-purchase decisions before shopping - Write down every amenity you want and find out if those types of homes are in your price range.

Weigh the benefits of desired amenities, wants and needs, over location - If you want a three bedroom but can realistically afford a two bedroom in the neighborhood you want, are you willing to move into a smaller home? Or would you rather look in a different neighborhood of three bedroom homes, offered at a price you prefer?

Rate the importance of each specific and figure out which you will compromise on and which you will not. For example, are you willing to give up a garage to live in an urban area where garages are scarce?

Explain to your agent how you arrived at your specific parameters and why. If you need a four bedroom because one of those rooms will be used as a den, you will eliminate the three bedrooms with a den if your broker doesn't probe for your reasons.

Put together a list of home types you definitely do not want to look at. If you decide to limit your search to single-story homes or prefer to avoid looking at fixer-upper homes, convey those thoughts to your agent.

It makes sense for Rogue Sportsman's Realty to show you homes that you actually would buy. By skipping homes that don't fit your parameters, you have more time to look at homes that do fit your specifics.

Realize, too, that you can't always use square footage as a guideline without looking at the home. After looking at the home for you, your RS Realty broker should be able to tell you if it has a bad layout or is more spacious than the Internet listing appears online.

After all, wouldn't you rather look at 10 homes that are nearly perfect for you instead of 50 you can't even remember? It's our job to help you find the right home, but it doesn't mean you have to do all the legwork yourself. Consider putting Rogue Sportsman's Realty to work instead.
