Would You Date This Homestead? Red Flags Before You Buy

Would You Date This Homestead? Red Flags Before You Buy18 ago27 min

Buying a homestead can feel a lot like dating. The listing photos catch your eye, you imagine your future together, and suddenly you are naming goats before you have even walked the property. But a homestead can look wonderful in its profile pictures and still be a terrible choice for a long-term relationship.

Wendi walks you through the five stages of getting to know a property: the dating profile, the first date, meeting the family, discovering the baggage, and deciding whether it is actually relationship material. Along the way, she shares questions about flooding, fencing, zoning, deed restrictions, inspections, expenses, and workload.

You will learn how to look beyond the pretty farmhouse and decide whether a property truly fits the life you want to build, even on an ordinary, tired Tuesday.
