When buying in Northern Texas, it's absolutely crucial distinguish what features you want in a home from what features you need.

With over 90% of buyers looking online first, they have a good understanding of what they want in a home. When we work with buyer clients today, we counsel them to look at their current space and ask how they're using that space. We then tell them to envision how they want to use their new space.

People who are moving from an apartment into a home use space much differently than people who have lived in a home for years. Move-up buyers also have special needs for space, as they are looking for more of it for various reasons. You as a buyer need to come up with a list of what's important for your new space.

Once you figure out your space needs, think about the location of the home. How close do you want to be to work? Do you want to live close to a park or in a great school district?

Let your agent know exactly what you're looking for in a house so they can go out and find homes that match that criteria. Once you start looking at homes, your list might change a bit. That's fine -- most buyers change their minds on certain things throughout the process. A good agent will accommodate those changes and help you find the home of your dreams!

It's important to find a home that you love, as the average American lives in their home for nine years. Let us help you find that perfect fit for you! Give us a call or shoot us an email at any time for the real estate assistance you deserve!
