Make sure to watch all the way through because at the end we’re going to give you the exact process you’ll need to research Prescuit the smart way without getting overwhelmed or making expensive mistakes. First of all, researching Prescuit isn’t easy. There’s a lot there’s a lot of moving parts and the stakes are very high. There’s information overload. A lot of times it’s very emotional. Sure. We get that it’s not easy and not making it any easier a lot of the times are real estate agents. That’s right. They really don’t. They put a lot of pressure tactics like sign today, let’s get this house, it’s going to be gone. We don’t do that. I never believe in a hard sell. Um it never works out. Yeah. If that’s what’s happening to you, then push back, move on. You don’t need to. We’re here to show you the ins and outs. Yeah. And and a lot of times people think that they don’t want to waste the real estate agents time until they’re ready to buy a house. You until they’re ready to make an offer on a house. That’s we don’t we don’t work that way. Okay. We realize it’s a process and you’re moving from out of town. This isn’t a local thing. Sometimes it takes two or three visits. Um some agents are not willing to give you that time. They’re like, “Well, you when you’re ready, you let me know.” or they’ll give them here, you can drive through this neighborhood and see if you like it, but I’m not taking you. Um, probably not a good way to start. Yeah. No, we’ll help you. And and what we do, we don’t just try to sell you a house. We don’t just try to sell you the city. We we want you to make a good move. So, if the city is not right for you, we’ll tell you that. I mean, we’ll help you figure that out. So, even if you’re not even sure you’re going to move at all, if you think it’s worthwhile to talk to us, we’ll talk to you. No problem. Absolutely. And we don’t mind. We do it all the time. You’re not wasting our time. Yeah. Because when you try to do it on your own, you you end up with kind of an unstructured process and you end up chasing your own tail. Yes. So, let’s fix that. The purpose of this video is to give you a guided process for doing your research. If you’re thinking seriously about Prescuit, this is the place to start. This is a good start. One of the biggest mistakes buyers make is getting ahead of themselves. In the next section, we’re going to talk about that. One of the biggest problems is people fall in love with a house too fast. Yes. You know, a lot of times people like to focus on the dream, the fantasy of moving or whatever, and they like to jump straight into home shopping before they really understand what they’re looking at. They don’t understand the area. They don’t know if the city is going to be a good fit. uh and what what happens is they fall in love with a neighborhood or a house sometimes in a city that doesn’t fit them right or they jump into something thinking this is what I really want and for instance we had someone who bought a home in horse property yeah we have to take our horses our horses have to be with us on the land on the they went out there they bought something guess what they do not like being that far out in horse property because they play golf all the time and then the horse died so some of this stuff you’ve got. We don’t want your horse to die. You know, you don’t want to be isolated out in an area that you thought, I this is what I really want to do and then you realize, I think I’m a little more social than our Yeah. Yeah. And we’re willing to help you with that. Yeah. In this particular case, there are plenty of places that will board your horse and absolutely all that doesn’t have to be on your property. We’ll help you work through all that. Absolutely. So, I’d like to introduce the concept of a structured research path. As I said before, you can’t put the cart before the horse. Yep. You got to do first things first. So, and a lot of times the fear of making a bad decision comes from not having an ordered process. So, next we’re going to talk about something extremely important that many people completely skip. How to know whether you’re even ready to start moving forward. Absolutely. So, this video covers what we call the next steps phase of your research. Yeah. This phase assumes that you’re already reasonably comfortable with Prescat as a possible fit and you’ve already addressed potential dealers like healthcare and weather and elevation. There are a lot of them. Okay, you need to resolve the dealillers first. The best way to do that is to take our prescuit sanity check. If you have not done this assessment, stop. Do that now. Okay, do that. Something we wish we would have had when we were moving here 10 years ago. We would have been very concise and helpful like I never knew that, never thought about that. It’s kind of like premarital counseling. That’s right. Yeah. You don’t want to You don’t want to focus on the wedding and forget about the marriage. You make sure that the marriage is going to work out for you. Absolutely. It’s easy enough to take the prescat sanity check. Just go to prescatscoop.com. Uh we’ll put a QR code somewhere up here on the screen for you and we’ll put a link in the description. You hop over to prescatscoop.com, you’ll see the link to the Prescuit sanity check and uh do that. You’ll be glad you did. Absolutely. Hey, do you feel there’s something holding you back from moving forward? Tell us about that in the comments. We’d love to hear about it. If it’s something we can address in a video, we’ll do that, too. All right. Assuming now you already worked through all these deal killers. The next section is where we’ll show you the smartest way to take the next step and start exploring. Assuming that you have no deal killers, what’s next? Well, we’ve laid out kind of an ordered process. So, the first thing we think you ought to do is to understand how press gets laid out. Mhm. You know, you need to understand the basic maps where the different neighborhoods are located, where the shopping areas are located, where downtown is located, and all all that in uh and where you want to be closest to. Yeah. Exactly. So, if you don’t understand this the basic layout of the city, it’s really hard to speak intelligently about where you want to go. Next is exploring what there is to do. There’s a lot to do. There’s a lot to do. Lots of art here, culture, uh lots of plays. We just saw a fabulous play the other night. It was really, really good. Uh lots of music, a ton, a ton a ton of music. So, um for a small town, we have a lot of culture here. Yeah, it’s quite nice. But, you know, you need to find out what there is to do. If there’s something you have to do, like hang out on a beach. We’re a mile high people. We don’t have beaches. No beaches. There’s no so if there’s some things that you absolutely have to spend your time doing, you want to make sure it’s here before you decide on anything. That’s right. Next up is uh understanding what homes are like. So the different homes that are available, it it it’s from soup to nuts. You could have big kahuna homes, you have little tiny homes, and everything in between. That’s right. You have homes that are different areas of town. You need to know what the structures will look like. You need to know what your options are. And once you kind of understand that, now’s the time to talk start talking about budgeting, right? Because your home is your biggest budget item. Uh you should go through a process of budgeting the cost of living. Look at the cost of living here versus cost of living where you are. And you can kind of back into well, how much house can we afford to buy? That’s right. And finally, you learn the personalities of the different neighborhoods. True. True, true. Some are really remote and way out there and off the grid. Some are country club living and which is kind of what we live in, uh, which is a lot of fun. There are other people who hate HOAs and club living. So, we just find a different neighborhood. People want to be right downtown. People want to be everything in between. Yeah. So, we we’ll find it for you and we’ll make it happen. Yeah. Once you have all five of those things, now you’re ready to start looking at homes that are available and which ones you like.

House was under contract. great house. The lady was so excited, so happy. Uh, clearly her agent didn’t educate her at all. Uh, she came to do the final walkthrough and it started to snow and she said, “I did not realize it snowed in Prescuit. I can’t live any place where it snowed.” So, it fell out during inspection. So, so she she I think she made more than one trip there. Her agent took her to all these houses. We negotiated the contract, went under, she did all of her inspections. She did all of this stuff and in the end, oh, it’s snowing. I don’t want to live here. Snow for you don’t want to do that. Yeah.
