Gainesville Florida Homebuying - Real Estate Relocation
See the AskMe Feature Below.
1. Write out a list of activities your family normally likes to do. You can then look for homes that have the right kind of space for your family. The first couple of homes we bought, we just went looking and decided on what we thought was the prettiest. However, we really didn’t think about how we lived and consequently neither of these houses were comfortable for us. A relocation expert specializing in relocating to Gainesville, Florida, can help you analyze what type of home in Gainesville Florida would suit your family.
2. Decide what your monthly housing budget will be once you move to Gainesville, Florida. Qualify and get approved for a mortgage before you even arrive. If possible, schedule a house hunting trip about 6-8 weeks before you will be transferred. That way you can move right into your home when you relocate to Gainesville Florida without having to stay in a Hotel. When we moved we actually parked the moving van at our new home, spent 2 hours closing the loan and then moved right in!
3. Decide which features in a home you have to have, and which would be nice to have. Focus on homes that meet your “have-to” requirements and then use “would be nice” features to determine which home to buy. For example: I had to have four bedrooms but I didn’t have to have a formal dining room as long as the house had a large breakfast room. There are many homes in Gainesville Florida, with a great variety of price and amenities. Request a Free “Relocation to Gainesville Florida” relocation package (click on link above) from one of our expert Gainesville Real Estate agents and you will be on your way to finding out how much home your budget can buy.
4. How important are schools? You may want to contact some schools in Gainesville, Florida and surrounding areas and talk to principles. You will find out much more about schools this way. National test scores are not always an accurate indication of how appropriate the school will be for your child/children. If you have requested a FREE “Relocation to Gainesville Florida” real estate information package, the Gainesville Realtor who is chosen to provide that Gainesville Relocation information can also give you valuable advice about which schools are the best in the Gainesville area. Our Realtor told us about one school district whose whole curriculum is built around boosting test scores, but their standard of education and extra-curricular activities were lacking. But the results looked good!
5. How important is ease of upkeep? New homes in Gainesville Florida are normally built with energy efficient features and low maintenance exteriors. Older homes in Gainesville Florida may make up in charm what they lack in ease of upkeep. My husband is extremely busy and we like to spend what little time we have on our hobbies. So we chose to buy a low maintenance home. My brother, on the other hand, just bought a house built in 1910 and is loving renovating his new home! The wonderful thing about America is that it can accommodate all tastes!
