Choosing the Right New Home

There are lots of reasons families make a decision to purchase a new home ...... change in family size, job transfer, retirement, tired of renting, shorter commute to work, closer to family or simply the desire for a newer, larger or smaller home. Across the country, the top three reasons people change their living situation is wanting a larger home, buying a first home or relocating to a new area for retirement or work.

Whatever your reason for moving - whether it's your primary home or a second home - how do you know when you've found the right house for you and your family. Lots of factors come into play: What do I want my monthly payment to be, what part of town do I want to live in, how do I want my new home to live.

Once you've determined the price and location, the next step is to ask yourself "How you do I want my new home to live." Think about what you've loved and what you wanted to change about your current home.

Make a list of your needs and your desires.

1. What rooms do you spend the most time?
2. Do you entertain?
3. Do you really need four bedrooms or would three work.
4. Do you have to have an office or an area to accommodate an aging parent?
5. Do you need a formal dining and living room or would a great room and large country kitchen work.

This process helps prioritize and clarify what you have to have and what you hope to have. By defining your home buying parameters, you can save time (and avoid confusion) by quickly eliminating the homes that don't meet your basic requirements.

Saving Money in the Home - a Real Energy Boost

In the past few years, and more so now than ever, Americans have been taking nation-wide stances to fight preservation of our Mother Earth and making significant lifestyle changes to save energy in any way that we can. Carpooling, hybrid cars, computer "sleep" modes, florescent light bulbs; the list goes on and on.

If you have taken interest in these things, the newest idea will really excite you... Introducing an energy efficient, low maintenance HOME!

It's a new concept; saving energy with not just one electrical outlet, but preserving energy throughout the whole building.

A recent study by Robert Charles Lesser & Co., the largest independent real estate advisory in the nation, acknowledges the huge move for energy efficiency in the entire home. In a survey of 1,011 respondents, 26.6% claimed that low-maintenance, and energy-saving homes were a consumer's main motivation to move.

With nearly 1/3 of homebuyers searching for homes meeting these requirements, Stanley Homes of Melbourne, Florida strove to meet the energy efficiency demands from homebuyers. This family-owned home builder has earned a certificate in the BuildSmart Program which ensures that each home is up to 30% more energy efficient than required by Florida's building code.
