Realtors have certain things that they look for in their own homes. One thing that they tend to look for is extra bedrooms or bathrooms. It allows for your family to grow. They also prefer fixer uppers because they are more budget friendly. Privacy, open floor plans, window and how well a home has been maintained also top their lists. Being in a good neighborhood is also very valuable.
Key Takeaways:
- “I owned a one-bedroom condo in a downtown Chicago high-rise and realized right away that I needed a second bedroom and another bath,” says Fred Carmean, a Realtor at the Illinois independent real estate brokerage firm @properties.
- “Now I’m in a place with space to live, work, and entertain.” The takeaway for house hunters: Buy a place that can grow with you.
- Someone who’s single, can always use an extra bedroom as an office or media room until a partner and family come along.
