[quote=Anonymous]Most importantly - know yourself and what is most important to you, and what you can compromise on. For me location, enough bathrooms (in the right places), and a minimum level of light and amount of storage have been the most important. I've compromised on a lot of other nice to have things. Every time I've bought I've been really happy after getting settled in. There are still some small annoyances, but even the things I knew would be annoying are actually not as annoying as I thought they would be. Also, agree with other posters that being thoughtful and intentional with your furnishings (and other things in your house) can also be really helpful. Decluttering can go a long way to making spaces feel nicer/more livable and also functional furniture that you like. And, even if you buy a brand new house, maintenance and repairs will be more than you think they will be![/quote]
