Where should I buy a home?

Choosing where to buy a home

Choosing the right area to buy a home is an important decision that should consider various factors. Here are some steps to help you pick the area that suits your needs:

• Define your priorities:

  • Start by clarifying your priorities and what matters most to you. Consider factors such as proximity to work, schools, amenities (parks, shopping centers, restaurants), and the overall community vibe. Determine what aspects are non-negotiable and what you are flexible about.

• Research areas:

  • Gather information about different areas that you are considering. CBH is all over the map with over 40 communities. Explore our online resources or ask one of our New Home Advisors. This team has a wide range of knowledge on the different areas and options.

• Visit and explore:

  • Take the time to physically visit the areas you are interested in. Walk or drive around the communities during different times of the day to get a sense of the atmosphere and to see if it aligns with your preferences.

• Consider future development:

  • Research any planned or upcoming developments in the area, such as infrastructure projects, new businesses, or housing developments. These can impact property values and the overall desirability of the neighborhood. Assess whether these future changes align with your preferences and potential investment goals. Did you know that most CBH communities are almost always in the vicinity of a school? We know how important it is and strive to be in the best locations.

• Access to amenities and services:

  • Evaluate the proximity and quality of essential amenities and services that matter to you. This may include grocery stores, healthcare facilities, recreational areas, cultural attractions, public transportation options, and proximity to major roads or highways. CBH has an amazing community map that actually is overlaid on a Google map! That means it’s easy to what’s in the area.

• Community and lifestyle fit:

  • Consider the community and lifestyle aspects of each area. Think about the type of community you want to be a part of and the activities or events that are important to you. Research local organizations, community centers, clubs, or recreational facilities that align with your interests and hobbies.
