Characteristics of Homes Compromised

We know that we can’t always get our entire wish list of features “granted” in a first home purchase.  Most home buyers had to compromise on some features.  But surprisingly, 32% of first home buyers did NOT have to compromise at all!  The most common “wish list” features compromised were:

  • Price of home
  • Condition of home
  • Size of home
  • Style of home
  • Distance from job
  • Lot size
  • Distance from friends or family
  • Quality of the neighborhood
  • Quality of the schools
  • Distance from school
