How to Create Your “Must-Have” Home List

How to Create Your “Must-Have” Home List

Congratulations on deciding to build a new home! This exciting milestone comes with many decisions, and we're here to help you navigate the process smoothly.

To start, think about what you absolutely need, what you’d love to have, and what you definitely don’t want. This will help you prioritize your choices and keep your budget on track.

Your must haves, loves, and heck no I never want that in my house!

 
 

Consider these key questions:

  • ●  Do you prefer a flat yard or are you okay with hills?

  • ●  What size lot do you want?

  • ●  What’s your ideal floor plan?

  • ●  Do you want outdoor living spaces?

  • ●  How large should the garage be?

  • ●  How many bedrooms and bathrooms do you need?

  • ●  Any specific materials or features you’d like?

    When planning your budget, focus first on the basics (size, stories, etc.). Allocate any remaining funds to design features and upgrades like a gourmet kitchen or a sunroom. Prioritize essentials, such as the number of bathrooms, over fun extras like an extra sink in my walk in pantry.

    Key Room Considerations

    Kitchen:

  • ●  Do you want an eat-in kitchen?

  • ●  Which appliances are most important to you?

  • ●  What features are essential? (e.g., soft-close drawers, island, gas stove)

    Bathrooms:

  • ●  Do you need a special size toilet?

  • ●  Do you want more than one bathtub?

  • ●  Do you need a detachable shower head? (Great for small kids or pets)

    Make a list with three columns: Must-have // Love // Heck no. This will help you identify your priorities and make informed choices when planning your new home.
