Why Is Location Important When Buying a Home?

You've probably heard the old real estate saying, Location Location Location! When you buy a home in a good location, it usually becomes a solid long term investment. That's why a home's location is an important factor to consider. Here are some good location characteristics to look for. 

Higher or increasing home values in the neighborhood. 
Access to schools, transportation, shopping, and parks. 
Well maintained properties in the neighborhood. 
A high percentage of home ownership. 
A well regarded school district. 
A low crime rate. 
High resale values. 

If the location that you select has most of these characteristics, your investment is more likely to be safe and profitable. When you decide to sell your property, a desirable location will play a big role in the sale by creating a greater demand and helping to sell your home faster and for a higher price.
