The million dollar question is how you
decide a property is the right one for you, does is give you a warm glow or a
cold shiver.
Picking a house can be exciting and
terrifying at the same time:
- Is the
location good for you?
- If there
are problems with the property can you afford or want to fix them?
- What if you love two properties?
Head in the clouds or
feet on the ground!
Deciding
what is best for you although less tangible is to trust your intuition. It is suggested that most buyers form an
impression in the first few seconds of walking into a property, ‘is this a
happy house or does it leave me cold’.
David
Jordan Estate Agents
with their many years of experience in the property market suggest that when a
house is a good fit for a buyer the couple or family will start to talk about
where they would place their furniture. They
begin to mentally start to move into the property. The upshot is if you view a property and find
yourself imagining where your possessions might go chances are the property is
a good match for you.
To be or not to be!
There is no
such thing as a crystal ball when it comes to house hunting. It is inevitable that you would think about
if the property was too small if you get a dog or be too big when the kids
leave for college. Sometimes if you have too many variables it can work against
you.
Possibly it
may be worth considering buying the property for the way you are living today
then adapt as you go. Decide based on
how you live and not where you will live.
For example
a property with amazing views can seem like a wonderful place to call home but
if you are rarely at home during the day those views won’t be visible most of
the time. Focussing on features indoors
maybe a better alternative, particularly to high traffic areas of the property
such as the kitchen. A sleek minimalist
stainless steel breakfast bar may set your heart on fire but if you have busy
toddlers a practical kitchen with lots of room and smudge resistant units maybe
a better match.
Follow your heart
Before you
make that final decision maybe sleeping on it overnight is sometimes good
advice, keeping your feel on the ground. However seldom will you go wrong if you follow
your heart. David Jordan Estate Agents aspire
always to deliver to you a cutting edge service and work with you to find your
dream property.
