Falling in Love with the First One

Buying a home is a series of choices - and after you’ve decided what you want and need, and have your financing ready to go, we’ll head out and start looking at homes, so you can pick the right one for you.

 

Occasionally, I have a client who falls in love with the first home we see, but doesn’t trust that choice, thinking, how can I know if it’s the right one if I haven’t seen everything else?

 

Here’s what I know after showing thousands of homes, in every part of Tucson, to many, many home buyers: Not everyone has that "A-HA!" moment right when they walk in the door.  Chances are, you’ll have a good attitude when you walk in, and like what you see.  And that feeling grows as you tour the rest of the home.  But because there was no flash of light, no sudden insight the minute you stepped into the house, you’re not sure if this is the right one. 

 

So here’s what we do: we go see a couple more homes.  And then we’ll go back to the first one.  And if it feels right, if it feels comfortable, if it seems even better after seeing the others, chances are, you’ve got a winner.

 

And on the plus side, I’ve likely already checked out a good portion of the homes that meet your criteria, so we’re hopefully only seeing the best of the best to start with.  So it’s okay to fall in love with the first home, and it’s okay to be unsure about that.  Getting you to a place where you can make comfortable decisions is what I do - and we can get there.
