Pascack Valley Real Estate>>Why Real Estate is like Eyeglasses

Hopefully my title caught your eye (pardon the pun) and you're wondering "Why Real Estate is like Eyeglasses?" Yesterday Bob and I got new Eyeglasses. For those of you who can relate to this, you may get the analogy. Let's look at this for a moment, shall we? I had always maintained 20/20 perfect eyesight. However, as I grew closer to the half century mark, things started to get a bit fuzzy. So I started using over the counter reading glasses and kept a pair in every room of the house. One day I noticed that my long distance eyesight was not as sharp as it used to be. It was inevitable - "I needed Bifocals"! Bob had been wearing his for some time but now I was catching up to him. So off we went to get ourselves His and Hers Bifocals. For those of you who know us, know we do everything together because we're a Team.

Getting back to my original point of view (oops, another pun), "See" if the following list illustrates Why Real Estate is like Eyeglasses:

• Both can be costly, depending on what you chose to buy
• Eyeglasses, when required, are a necessity just like a HOME is
• You must maintain your eyeglasses much like you must maintain your Home
• Getting just the right type of glasses requires the assistance of a professional as does finding the right home
• Much like the Real Estate market, your eyeglass prescription is ever-changing
• Keeping up with the changes of your prescription is a necessity the same way keeping up with the marketis necessary
• Adjustments may be needed to your eyeglass prescription as well as your home price, if you are Selling or your price range, if you are Buying a home
• Focusing on the key points when you are Buying a home is the best way to see which one is right for you!

I can go on for a long time with my list of analogies but I'm certain that you can "SEE" what I mean by now. We hope this has helped you to understand Why Real Estate is like Eyeglasses. We'd love to hear from you so please feel free to comment.
