You're ready to take the plunge; you want to move your primary home location or finally get that weekend get-away you always talked about. As you hunt down your dream home or ideal cottage, it’s good to keep in mind that the more specific you are in detailing what you want before setting out to look at what is available, the more likely your real estate professional will be able to show you properties that match your expectations. Coming up with a “shopping list” is a good idea, be sure to share it with your real estate agent. Your agent will use the criteria that you set as a guide for searching out and winnowing down selections for your consideration.
What type of property do you prefer?
Waterfront: River or Lake (all sports or no wake)
Acreage: how much and preferred location
