Before we start house hunting, we’ll sit down and talk about a timeline, your budget, and overall goals in purchasing a home. In doing so, we’ll to through what you “need” or “want” in your new home. It’s important to be clear as to what we’re looking for as it helps narrow down potential homes to tour. Keep in mind that we may not find a home that has 100% of everything you want or need, so it’s important to remain flexible and keep an open mind depending on what we find.

Things to consider as “needs” or “wants” in a new home:

• Commuting to work

• Near public transportation

• Proximity to shopping, grocery and entertainment

• Near recreation areas

• Specific specs (# of bedrooms, # of bathrooms, sq. ft.)

• Neighborhood

• Backyard size
