KNOW YOUR PRIORITIES
Prioritize your list of the things that are most important to you for your new neighborhood. How close do you want to be to the movie theater, health clubs, schools, churches, stores, etc? What are some of the recreational activities you enjoy the most? This will help us pinpoint particular neighborhoods with these activities and/or amenities that are convenient to you.
CONSIDER THE SCHOOL DISTRICT
If you have children, no doubt you’ll be concerned about the school district in which the neighborhood resides. Find out what are the average class size, test scores and incidences of violence in the school system and what enrichment and extracurricular activities the schools offer. Even if you don’t have children, a home in a good school district will be easier to sell in the future.
THE AREA'S ECONOMIC STABILITY
Fortunately, our area is economically stable. How about property values? We would be happy to supply you with property appreciation information for your area of interest. We recommend you see if there are any planned developments for the neighborhood as a new school or a highway. These will ultimately effect the future value of the home.
CHECK IT OUT
If possible; visit the areas in which you are considering. Important questions to keep in mind include - are the homes well maintained? Are the streets quiet? Talk with the people you meet along the way so you can capture the flavor of the neighborhood.
These are important considerations to make when making a purchase as large as a home. Remember, you’ll be the one living there so make your best effort to see if it’s a good fit.
