Do you and your partner have two very different visions of your dream home?
In this week’s Wine Down, we give you tips on how to get the best of both worlds. A quick watch that might change the way you think about finding “the one.”
Hello, hello, hello. Dian and Randall Bro here. I am the pickle lady coming to you from Prescuit, Arizona. Let’s get Arizona. That’s us. We’re so happy to be here. Um, we love to chitchat with everybody out there about the latest and greatest stuff that’s going on. Uh, one thing we want to talk about is dual search. (00:21) Dual searches. So, a lot of times people are interested in getting home searches and they’re not quite sure what they want. Uh before you can pick a home, you really kind of need to pick a lifestyle, right? So, uh you may want to live in a community with lots of amenities, lots of people to meet. (00:41) There’s always things going on and and that’s the kind of life you want. You may want a life that’s very quiet, not no traffic, no city lights, uh kind of get away from it all and and be on the side of the mountain. Uh those are available. other other lifestyles are available too. Uh but before you can pick a home, you kind of have to pick the lifestyle. (01:05) And one of the tricks that we’ve learned with people come in and they haven’t really decided what kind of lifestyle they’re looking for is we’ll do multiple searches for you. A lot of times you try to get it all into one search and you’re really talking about two completely different searches. And a lot of times we get husband and wives who come in. (01:23) Yeah. and they will answer our home survey tour, but it’s really just kind of based on one person in the relationship. And then they come in and they’re like, “Well, I’m the one who wanted two acres and I kind of wanted to be out there. I didn’t want a lot of people around me.” Whereas the spouse might be like, “Actually, I wanted to be more in a neighborhood with amenities and I didn’t mind having neighbors by me. (01:47) ” So, we would have set up two searches for that if we had known that and we would have combined looking at both more of both of those types of homes. Yeah. So, it’s really important to don’t just gloss over your home tour. Really hone in and think about what you want and let us know. I don’t know if I want to just live in an HOA with amenities or I might be remote. Let me know. (02:11) Two different searches. That’s right. and two different types of homes to show you completely on opposite ends of the spectrum. And you kind of have to walk down the street a little bit before you decide really what lifestyle makes the most sense. Absolutely. You know, you really start looking at something. (02:29) It’s like you go to the store, you try on different clothes. Do I want a suit or do I just want a shirt? You know, you kind of have to try it and explore it a little bit before you really understand what your heart wants. That’s right. And we really like to make both, you know, people happy. So, we want to show you a mixture of, okay, here are homes with amenities and here are more uh more remote without amenities on two acres. (02:55) If I know ahead of time, then I can split that and say, “Okay, I’m going to show you three houses that are remote, three houses with amenities.” Yeah. And it’ll kind of give you a good sampling, but I need to know ahead of time. And so it’s important for uh especially married folks. Yeah. Really talk to each other and communicate what what your goals are when you move here. (03:17) Where do you really want to wash up? Where do you think you’d really be happy? And then that way we can really deliver a great tour and show you everything because we can deliver anything. Yeah. Um but it’s kind of hard if people are on differing opinions. Yeah. So, let us know ahead of time and then we can try to show you both sides. (03:37) That’s right. And we we’ll let you run with both your premises uh for a while until you kind of focus and yeah either come up with some sort of uh compromise or you know one person decides you know what the more I think about it the more I don’t really want that. That’s right. Uh eventually you come to some kind of consensus and you will and we are happy to guide you through all of that. (03:59) But when you come in town, we want you to be happy after your home tour. We want to really give you a good sampling of different areas and different communities so you’re fully educated. But unless I’m told, it’s hard for me to do that and deliver. That’s right. And we just want you to leave here happy and more knowledgeable about what life is like here. (04:18) That’s right.
