The type of lifestyle you and your family enjoy is a key component on where to buy a home. Do you like a more Urban setting where shops, restaurants and amenities are close by? Maybe even within walking distance? Or would your family prefer a more tranquil Rural setting with a little more privacy? The “stage” your family is in plays a large part in this decision. Younger couples, and singles just starting out tend to want a more urban/city location. Couples that are ready to start a family might want a more suburban/neighborhood kind of feel to raise their children. Before finalizing your decision on location, it’s a very good idea to take a look around the areas in the daytime and at night. This will give the buyer a more comprehensive idea of the neighborhoods they are considering.

Commuting to your work place is another major factor, especially in our area! Northern Virginia is a growing, busy place to live. Some people are more tolerant of a longer commute than others. Do you want to be within walking distance of public transportation? We have an extensive public transportation system that includes bus services, metro, VRE, carpools, commuter buses, and more. These options can help with commuting to work. Most people still like to drive themselves to work, so knowing how long your commute will be is useful information when deciding on the location of where to buy a home.
Families with school age children will want to consider school districts. Although our area has very strong school systems, the curriculum, teaching methods, and educational options available to the students can vary greatly. Buyers should definitely factor in the educational needs of their children and compare the different school options before deciding on where to buy.

From the Seller’s prospective all of the contingencies are a risk, and if you make the contingencies too long or to aggressive, you risk turning the Seller off in regards to your offer. Most Sellers are looking for short timelines and to secure the strongest offer they can get.
