Buying A Great House Is Likely Better Than Eternally Searching For A Perfect House |
|
You may have heard of the expression - "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good" - and here are a few other similar phrases from philosophers over the ages...
So, how does this all apply to house hunting and home buying? When in the midst of a home search process, when a buyer finds a house that seems like it could work well -- they might get stuck in trying to determine conclusively whether good is good enough... or whether great is perfect enough. It's understandable... Buying a house is an expensive and lasting decision. You'll likely live in the home for many years to come, and the various aspects of the house will shape some of the patterns of your life, relationships and more. So, it's important to get the right house -- a great house -- a perfect house -- right? Yes, 100%. That said, oftentimes a house is great, but is not 100% perfect, and this can leave a buyer wondering whether to go ahead and jump on the pretty-amazing-but-not-perfect house, or to keep looking for something that is an even better fit for their needs or desires. There's no magical answer here -- it's not that you should always decide to buy a great-but-not-perfect house -- and it's not that you should always eternally wait for the perfect house.
