• What are your day to day and future needs?
• Do you enjoy swinging a hammer?
• Older houses have great charm, but may need updating.
• New homes offer the latest energy efficiency and design features.
• Larger lots can give room for additions and swimming pools.
• A fixer upper can dramatically increase in worth.
