[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools were number one (within a defined geographic location that had a reasonable commute). Next was size/layout as we have a big family. Finally, I really wanted to care about the yard and outdoor space but that's what we had to sacrifice when our budget couldn't cover it all (and our budget was decent at the time). [/quote] +1. Our top priority was schools and home proximity to schools. I've been WFH for over a decade so commute didn't factor in much, though my DH does work in office. Our list was: schools; family friendly neighborhood; walkability to schools; yard space (ideally flat, square yard); neighborhood with mature trees; access to trails. I will admit that not having to consider worksite location was a huge help. If we ever move again, school district and walking distance to schools would remain #1 factors, as the walking to/from has greatly alleviated my stress levels. [/quote]
