Where you buy not only affects the home’s current and future value, but it also affects your lifestyle. As your agent I will be able to conduct a more targeted home search if you outline your preferences in neighborhoods and nearby amenities. Here’s a checklist of items you should consider and communicate to me so we can focus on homes that meet your desired search criteria.

• Urban, suburban or rural
• Commute time
• School districts
• Desirable neighborhoods
• Proximity to the airport
• Proximity to restaurants and retail
• Access to major highways and thoroughfares
• Access to public transportation
• Health care facilities
• Parks and recreation
• Length of time you plan to live in the home
