Many home buyers are haunted by this question, "is this the right house for me?"
While you will never really know until you have lived and spent an ample amount of time in your newly acquired property, there are preliminary factors that should give you an idea according to About Home:
You want to go inside the house
Isn't it exciting driving up the curb and not knowing which could be your new home. If your eyes are glued on that contemporary house on the right, then it means that there is something about that house that appeals to you.
The house embraces you the moment you enter
It should only take as fast as 3 seconds to feel the warmth and comfort of a house that is meant for you. Does it speak to you, like begging you to look around and discover its places?
You don't feel funny in the bathroom
For some reason, some buyers are just not as comfortable with walking into a bathroom that they would just pop their head in and making sure their feet don't touch any part of the floor. But, if you can walk into the bathroom without tip-toeing and even feel compelled to open the shower door or slide your finger through the vanity marble, then this is your house!
You are possessive about the house
If nothing that your agent says about the flaws of the house bothers you, then it's a strong sign. You just want to defend every flaw the agent points out because the truth is, none of them matters to you at this point.
You begin to envision future arrangement
You walk into the dining and already see where your China wares would go. Suddenly, you just have this mental interior design going on in your mind; on what wall your bed would go against, or which window the Christmas tree would be by.
The house fits your basic needs
You wanted 4 bedrooms and this house just has them, like an answered prayer. Though it doesn't hit all the bullets, you see that it meets the entire basic requirement and it's all good.
You want to stop looking at other homes
Suddenly, all other homes you visit just don't appeal to you because you can't keep your mind off this particular house.
You can't wait to brag about this house to your friends
While touring the home, you suddenly take a photo of an angle of the house and send it to your best friend with a caption, "Aaaaaah! Perfect!"
Every thought in your mind tells you to buy that house
You are just consumed with the idea of owning the house that you can't think about anything else but that.
