05 Nov What Type of Home Is Right for Me?
Choosing a home is one of the most important decisions we make in our lives. If you’re considering buying a new home, it’s likely you have a long list of questions that need to be answered before you can begin your search.
Here are some important factors to consider when house hunting:
LOCATION
Location is everything in real estate, so the first question you need to answer is where you want your home to be. Consider the climate, walkability, population, and other important factors when deciding where to live. In South Florida alone, neighboring towns can provide a variety of atmospheres; Ocean Ridge is described as secluded and serene, whereas Delray Beach – just a few short miles away – is rich with boutiques, restaurants, and resort-like beaches. First determine what type of town will best suit your lifestyle, then move on to the house itself.
SIZE
Not only should square footage be considered, but the ideal number of bedrooms and bathrooms should also be taken into account. You may want more than just the number of bedrooms needed for you and your family, as a spare room holds a lot of potential; a home office space may be necessary for remote work, or one of your passions – such as fitness or art – might require its own space separate from the rest of your home.
OUTDOOR SPACE
Another factor to consider is your desire for outdoor space. We all need a little nature in our lives, with recent studies showing significant health benefits associated with spending time outside. If you enjoy fresh air and breathtaking views just outside your door, consider a waterfront property with a spacious backyard. If you’re looking to live in a warmer climate like South Florida, you’ll likely want to find a home with a swimming pool and hot tub.
There are so many factors to consider when you’re looking for a new home, so it’s important to take your time and discover exactly what’s right for you and your family. When you walk into the perfect home for the first time, you’ll instinctively know it’s the one.
