Thoughts & Happenings

Moving houses or purchasing a new home is never a light decision when you have school-age children to think about. Aside from obviously choosing a home that would fit a growing family’s needs and making sure that it fits the family’s budget, another thing to consider is the quality of nearby schools or whether the family is willing to have a long commute if nearby schools fall short of the family’s expectations.

Choosing the best home staging tips can affect not only your possibility to sell your home, but also for how much you can sell it for. These days, just placing a for sale sign or listing your home in the market are not enough to make a successful sale.

Even in sought-after neighbourhoods where home prices are far from cheap, buyers have developed a taste for beautiful homes that give them a glimpse of how it would be like to live in one. This had led to a booming need for home staging before listing a home in the market.

Home-hunting season is upon us again! While you can buy any home you want for the price-range that you can afford, there is nothing wrong with making sure that you get your money’s worth by avoiding homes which will cost you a lot on maintenance and insurance fees. After all, even luxury home buyers are not just looking for beauty, they also want a home that would be a pleasure to live in! The last thing you want is to end up buying the wrong house.
