This is a great question! At the beginning of any home search buyers end up building a huge list of home they want to see. Which is OK
to do but, there are some thoughts I have about seeing ALL OF THEM in one day.
I like to tell my buyers to do some of there own research
before scheduling viewing. This will entail a drive by and neighborhood visit.
I suggest any buyer to look at the area first, drive around the neighborhood
and then drive by the property. Once this is done, in most cases the once
lengthy home list narrows down. Now you it time to schedule appointments.
I strongly suggest scheduling only four and no more than five
homes in a viewing day. After four homes most buyers start merging all the
information on each house with the others. They begin to have trouble remember
the specific features of each home which becomes a problem when they find one to
purchase. Remembering homes, even for an
expert can be difficult. Smaller home viewing lists make it easier and more manageable
and actually can speed up the decision process.
Making this process simpler at the beginning will yield quicker results. Taking notes on each house is always a good idea too.
