The Plan

On occasion I will be asked what type of house I like best. People see the role of a realtor as a door opener. We give people a tour of all the possible dwellings in our marketplaces. So this seems like a reasonable question to someone with access like this.

The truth is that the question is far more complex than most would imagine. There are subtle compromises to that nostalgic 1920’s Craftman’s with the wide-plank oak baseboard. That mid-century sprawling one-level maybe sitting on a oversized too-much-maintenance lot. And even those dwellings which fall in the tippy top price ranges may not have it all.

The first day of a new year is compelling me to layout a plan. It is time to seek an answer to the question of which house stands head and shoulders above the rest. So as the weeks ahead unfold, you will see much more house talk. Which seems appropriate for a site about home economics.
