There is a lot to consider when buying your first home or your forever property.  Wherever you are in your journey, you want to make sure that you get the BEST house for YOU. 

But choosing the right home isn’t as easy as it sounds. There are a lot of factors to consider — the right neighbourhood, the perfect layout, and of course price … But what if we simplify things and start by listing FIVE of the MOST important factors you want in your new home.

1. Adequate square footage
2. Sufficient bedrooms + bathrooms 
3. Backyard for kids to play 
4. Good school district 
5. Within 30 min to downtown 

Ok, now the more exciting part, WANTS! 

1. A great view 
2. Marble countertops + hardwood flooring 
3. Butlers pantry (what a dream)
4. Entertainment centre 
5. Stainless steel appliances 

When you make note of these, remember that this doesn’t mean you can’t have what you want in your home, but rather that you have a priority list of the most important features. Depending one where you are in your home buying journey, you may not be able to obtain all the “want” items on your list, within your budget. You may have to compromise on a few items to stay in line with your budget. Sometimes this can be tough to do on your own, that’s where having a trusted Real Estate professional comes in hand.
