7 things your Realtor really wishes you understood about buying a home

 
Picture
Buying a house is just a little more complicated than buying a pizza at Little Italy.  Buying a home will require much more money, thought, and preparation.  Since purchasing real estate is not something you often do, it’s understandable that you may not be fully familiar with the process. 
   Luckily, if you’re partnered with the right Realtor, the process should go smoothly, and maybe even be fun.   That said, there are certain things you need to do.  So, here’s my list of things I wish every one of my clients understood about buying a home.

Someone needs to shovel the walkway.

 
Bob Miller and Ellen outdoors
   Yes, the walkways do need shoveling this time of year, and if you're as lucky as I am, your wife helps you with it.
Growing up on Long Island, I don't remember my parents enjoying winter very much.  I think for them  winter snow was a hassle.  Higher fuel bills, a driveway to maintain, and Lord help us, what do we do if school closes?
   When Ellen and I moved to Lake Placid in 1990, we met one of our neighbors, Gary Hodgson, a State Forest Ranger.  He told us that the former owner of our home had purchased in the summer, went through one winter, and then moved quickly back to Connecticut, vowing to never go through another  cold season.  Gary told us "You kids better learn to embrace winter.  If you don't, you'll never make it here".

And so it begins...

 My first blog post.
    Honestly, a few years ago I had no idea what "blog" even meant. 
  But here I am, a bit intimidated, but venturing forward.  Onward and upward as they say.
     Where to start....
    I batted around discussing current real estate market conditions, or maybe I can talk about conditions on Excelsior at Whiteface Mtn.  Maybe I should just talk about vacation rentals and Airbnb, especially since it seems to be a hot topic right now.  
   Or maybe I should just start at the beginning.....
