“How many homes does someone usually see before they buy one?”
***ANSWER:
In my experience, once someone starts seriously looking, they actually walk through about ten homes (not counting open houses) before they buy one.
If you’ve seen more than ten homes, re-examine your criteria to make sure you’re being realistic.
Many people get in a holding pattern, looking at home after home, trying in vain to find a perfect home that doesn’t exist, or at least doesn’t exist in their price range.
So if you can’t find what you want, look again at…
Price range
Location
Property type (house vs. condo)
# Bedrooms & Baths
Size
Condition
Amenities
…and adjust if necessary.
