Subject: How to Find Your Perfect Neighborhood
Hello NAME,
Location, location, location. Half of buying a home is all about finding where you want to live. You may have found your dream house, but if it’s not in your dream neighborhood, then it’s not your dream home.
To find the neighborhood that is just right for you, start by making a needs and wants list and be sure to include activities, services, and hobbies that dictate the amenities you need nearby.
The internet provides an immense amount of information so do a little digging.
Check it out in person. Drive through the area multiple times and at different times of day so that you can get a true feel for the area. Consider taking long walks to truly absorb how it would feel to live there.
How far is your potential home from your job? For some, a long commute would be a deal breaker. What is your tolerance? Be sure to drive the route multiple times at the exact times you will be traveling to and from work.
Do your research on property taxes and any other special assessments, especially in new areas and areas that have associations.
Research crime statistics, school ratings, and any neighborhood noise or restrictions that would hamper your enjoyment.
Visit the local park and chat with neighbors to ask what they enjoy most about living in the area.
It’s easy to fall in love with a nice home, and it’s even better when a great lifestyle that is your perfect fit goes along with it.

Warmly,
