Location, Location, Location


My townhouse client thought that she had decided on one property, but after a restless night's sleep, she realized that her first choice was just too far away from her job, favorite stores, and doctors' offices.
Today we went back to her third choice. It is higher priced than the other two, but backs on a beautiful green belt, and includes membership in the adjoining golf course.
Buyers, especially the seniors that I work with, often will choose a home based on location...thus the old Realtor adage, "location, etc., etc." For families, the important factor is the quality of the nearby schools and parks. For young singles and couples, it's usually the proximity to their jobs. For retired individuals, it can be the familiar signs of a Long's Drugs or Safeway around the corner
