Moving to the Austin area?

Relocating to a new area can push someone to their mental limits, without mixing in the daunting task of searching for a home in addition to finding the right Realtor. At John Horton Realty, I understand this, and I am an expert in relocation. I have a long history of finding buyers the right home by going through a very specific checklist to help you efficiently narrow your options.

When relocating, you often don't have the time to look at every home on the market. At best, you might have the time to be shown 20 to 25, so narrow down that list first thing with these tips:

  • Before leaving town, write your needs into one list. Then list the things you simply want in another. If a home doesn't even meet your needs, there's no need to even spend time looking at it.
  • Have a set price range. This could be based on mortgage or a reasonable estimate of what you'll net from selling your current home.
  • Take into account drive time to work or other activities. Traffic in the Austin area could be different than what you're accustomed to, so tell me how much time you're ready to spend travelling each day.

I can send you some top recommendations before you get into town. Or if you've already started your search, let me know what you've found. While seeing listing photos on the web is helpful, there's nothing like seeing homes in person. I can arrange any necessary appointments with other Realtors or homeowners and map a route. By planning ahead, we could visit 8 or 10 homes in a single day.
