Time to Make the Move
It’s a new year and you’re ready for a fresh start. If you’re feeling antsy and thinking about making a new house your new home, now’s the perfect time. Maybe you’ve outgrown your current place or are ready to cash in on the equity you’ve been building—either way you think it’s time to move on.
Even though you think you’re ready to move, there are many things to consider before you jump into the first house that comes along. First, determine what your main purpose for moving is: Are you downsizing, moving closer to a new job, looking for a better neighborhood? Then, think about your finances: Are you going to buy or rent your new place? Are you going to sell or lease out your old place?
Once you have those questions answered you can begin to look for a new place to call home. The experts suggest making a list of the features you can’t live without and the things you might be willing to overlook when searching for your new house. With that in mind, it’ll make decisions a little easier when it comes down to the wire.
Happy house-hunting!
