What to Look for in a Home

 

You decide it's time to buy a home and there's so much to think about.  It's exciting and such a big decision, so you want to make sure you make the right choice.  There's a lot to consider when purchasing a home.

Where are you thinking of buying?  The neighbourhood is important, especially if you have children.  You want to know if there's other children nearby and what school your children will be going to.  Parks that are close would be nice too.  It's convenient to have grocery stores and malls close to do all your shopping.  If you work the distance to and from your job might be a factor.  If you don't drive you want to know if public transit is available.

Of course, you want to make sure the house is in good condition.  Make sure the plumbing, heating and electricity is working well.
