The beginning of the process that occurs with all of my
clients is the choice of a dream home – the floor plan, the style and the needs
of the family. Frequently choices are
made because of what a neighbor’s home looks like or what one thinks may have a
good resale value. With these
considerations it is easy to end up with a home that does not meet your dreams. The value of a home to live in is more
important than a home’s resale value.
Trust your instincts.
Does a small room make you feel all warm and fuzzy? Do you hate housekeeping and don’t have the
budget for a housekeeper? Is sitting
outside on your covered porch in the morning having a cup of coffee on your
bucket list? Or a view of the sunset in
the evening? Is the last home you are
planning on living in? Or do you have a
childhood memory that you want to capture in this new home?
According to a survey conducted by the National Association of Home Builders, a covered front porch is becoming a standard feature in new homes. With the economic revival homes are becoming more about the individual’s experience, preferences and needs and less about expectations.
So as you make decisions and plan your new home – this is
an excellent time to ask what things are truly important to you.
And as I always try to remind people – paper and pencil
is far less expensive than wood and concrete.
