Teri is happy to share with you her thoughts
on housing needs:
After knowing what your budget will allow, you are ready to
take the next step in realistically defining your housing needs
and wants. Buying a home consists of both science and art. The
science part is the legal and financing section, whereas the
art lies in finding a home to fit your present and future needs.
Divide your topics into sections such as:
GENERAL:
-
PRICE RANGE
-
APPROXIMATE LOCATION
-
SCHOOL DISTRICT
SPECIFIC:
-
AREA
-
AGE
-
STYLE
-
TYPE OF OWNERSHIP
-
LOT SIZE
Focus should be on the location and general quality
of the property. Don't chase unrealistic dreams or focus on a
special feature. Remember, this is a large investment, and you
must consider the benefit of resale. Price can be negotiated with
the seller, if you start with a down-to-earth, well educated offer.
There are 2 phases of
the house-hunting strategy:
1. Get the feel of different areas and the idea about purchase
prices within those areas. Now, draw up a list of specifications.
2. Search for the property to meet your specifications.
It is important to distinguish between "needs"
and "wants". Set up a checklist of categories using
terms such as these: Commuting Time, Setting/Lot Size,
School District, Public Transportation, Zoning Laws, Style and
Exterior, Number of Bedrooms, Number of Baths, Number of Garages,
Master Bath, Family Room, Basement Full/Finished, Eat-in Kitchen,
Separate Dining Room, Expandability, Fix-up Home, Energy Efficient,
and Fireplace.
Now, make sure you fill out your "needs"
and "wants" correctly. You'll find this method very
helpful in ranking various real estate listings.
