Buying for the Future: The New Home Finder & The New Home Owner Are Available Right

When purchasing a Las Vegas home--especially if it is a first home--many buyers get
so caught up in the \"here and now\" that they totally overlook how the house may--or
may not--fit into future plans and outlooks. Obviously, buying a home that fits into
your current needs and wants is the main priority, but this should not eliminate or
totally overshadow an awareness that future needs and wants must also be considered.
These future concerns should be addressed whether you plan to stay in the home for a
considerable length of time or if you have plans of selling within a specific time
frame.

There are two costs that need to be considered in the purchase of real estate.
First, of course, is the initial price of the home. Second, and just as important,
is the eventual resale value. Therefore, to ignore the factors that affect resale
(or your continued enjoyment of the home if you don\'t sell) is to be unaware of the
true TOTAL cost of the home.

With an eye to the future, there are a few important factors that play into the cost
equation that should be considered when comparing and choosing homes, including:

Size
Location
Style
Trends

Not adequately considering the size of the home can be one of the most expensive
mistakes in your purchasing process. If you buy a house that is too big or small for
the neighborhood, you will either be paying for size that you cannot recoup (too
big) or face a more difficult sale at resale time (too small). Like many things in
life, the middle ground is often the best and in this case, it is the house that is
the best fit for its area that will bring the best return.

Location

As you have probably heard numerous times, location is usually the most important
factor in the value of a home. When buying for the future, though, it is necessary
to consider how location will affect resale value. For example, if development is
moving in one direction in an area, it may be wise to buy with that in mind rather
than buying in the area that is currently in demand. Be aware, though, that there
usually is a limit to how far people will commute. To purchase outside of that
\"limit\" can make a home much more difficult to sell in the future. In fact, in a
number of areas in North America, there has been a movement BACK toward city centers
as more and more commuters got fed up with long drives and traffic jams.

Style

Over a period of years, Las Vegas home styles can evolve and change. As an example,
in many areas split level and split foyer (or split entry) homes were very popular
for a number of years. Today, though, in these same areas virtually no contractors
are building that style of home, which lowers the resale value of homes of that
type. Sticking with more classical styles, depending on the area of the country
where the home is located, is generally the best tactic when keeping resale in mind.

Trends

Have you ever walked into a Las Vegas home that has not been updated since the
1970s? Bright green shag carpet, gold (or avocado) appliances, vibrant (or even
garish) linoleum. Virtually any buyer of such a house will need to factor in the
costs of remodeling and updating-- if they will consider the home at all. And that
will equate to a lower sale price, costing the seller money.

This should be a good lesson about avoiding \"trendy\" homes when purchasing today. It
makes much more sense to stick as close as possible to the tried-and-true--white
appliances, simple, quality cabinetry and trim, pile carpet in nondescript colors
(beige, gray and the like) will bring a better return than a home that is loaded
with the latest styles but will look very dated (like the shag carpeting and the
avocado stove) when it is time to sell.

Summing Up

Since buying a home is both a financial AND an emotional experience, it is important
not to put too much emphasis on one aspect or the other. To focus solely on the
financial side runs the risk of missing the most enjoyable parts of home ownership
-- the emotional ones. To concentrate just on the emotional or the \"feel good\"
aspects, though, can cost a considerable amount of money in the long run. A new home
finder must bear these things in mind. Remember, there are two costs associated with
home ownership: The original price and the net cost when the resale value is
eventually factored in.
