Advice from the Episode
Searching for your forever home can be stressful.
Wendy shares some helpful advice for finding the right home in the right location.
So the three things we always look for is lighting, location, and layout.
And I clung onto that.
From there, I really kind of worked around everything else.
Know Your Deal Breakers When Buying a Home
Definitely location.
We had to be in a radius of about 10-15 minutes from our family and friends.
That was number one deal breaker.
Number two was lighting, because you could’t control the sun.
So, lighting was a big one.
And three, the layout.
We learned that the hard way before.
I don’t want to be sliding coasters everywhere when you’re entertaining.
You wanna be a gracious host.
You want people to feel comfortable and at home.
For them to do that, you better feel comfortable with living as if this was their home.
You’re looking at counters, surface areasand you’re looking at flooring.
So that’s something I keep in mind.
