How do you know if a property is 'the one'?

You may have heard me compare finding the right property with online dating before. From deciding what qualities you’re looking for to knowing whether someone’s a good match, searching for a property can involve making equally overwhelming decisions. So how do you know if a property is ‘the one’? Today I’ll be guiding you through some strategies you can adopt in order to begin your property buying journey with clarity and to make your decision with confidence.Starting with the good news: while searching for a partner comes with a lot of unknowns and guesswork, there are much more tangible ways to embark on your search for the right property. I talk about the research and prep work you can do to help you make the best decision, and how things like market comparison and data can help guide you in the right direction. What property buying does have in common with dating however, is that sometimes it does rely on a little bit of that gut feel. While having a clearly defined property brief is crucial in navigating the market, I talk about how trusting your instincts or emotions when something does or doesn’t feel right is not only acceptable, but important - particularly if the property you’re buying will be your new home. I take you through some helpful strategies such as benchmarking, knowing your ‘why, when and what’ and different types of research you can do to ensure your expectations are realistic and your goals achievable. Just like with dating, there’s always a chance you’ll feel the fear of missing out on something better. However, the more informed and prepared you are, the better chance you have at being confident you’ve found the perfect match for you.
