How to Find the Best Home for Maximum Profit PART 1

Most people don’t have a lot of requirements for finding a good home. They want a nice place, with the amenities and the space that they need, for a price they can afford. Ideally, this place will be reasonably located near work, or shopping, or other popular destinations.



There’s no reason you can’t get all that, and still find a home that will give you the maximum profit in the long run.



Buying a home is an investment. If you invest wisely, you get a good return on investment, because your home will appreciate in value. The more your home value appreciates, the more you earn on your investment if you ever sell your home, and the more flexible you can be in terms of getting home equity loans and refinancing. So how can you get the best home for maximum profit?



1. Buy a home near planned amenities.



Anyone can buy a home near shopping, and pay a high price because it’s a desirable location. However, if you keep an eye out for planned amenities, by searching for areas on the verge of development, you can realize a huge profit between buying the home and selling a few years later when the development is complete.



Before development occurs, home prices are typically affordable and even inexpensive. After development begins, though, prices increase. When an area is fully developed, property values can soar. The key is to get a home near planned amenities, but not too near – no-one wants to live next to a parking lot, but five minutes away can be a great location.



2. Find a home with easy access to highways or interstates.



Many people commute between 30-90 minutes every day between home and work. Living in the city isn’t always a desirable option; especially for families raising children; so many people choose to live in the suburbs and commute back and forth to work. If you find a home with easy access to highways or interstates, your property values will be higher than if the home is in the middle of nowhere, and people have to drive 40 minutes to the highway.
