Anyone who has ever bought a home remembers the wonderful feeling of finding the right property and falling in love with it. It's an indescribable mixture of comfort, excitement and dreams about to come true.
Great vibes are undoubtedly a good sign in deciding to purchase a home.
But you shouldn't let your emotions overrule a reasonable assessment of whether a particular home really meets your needs. Here are a few of the many rational questions you'll want to ask yourself before you rush into a commitment to buy. If the answers seem worrisome, rethink your infatuation. Along with price, the condition of the home should be a top consideration. A fixer-upper home with lots of potential can be a great find or a money pit.
