You should always consider 'resale' a top priority when purchasing a home. Nothing is worse than owning a home that nobody else wants, leaving you stuck in your investment. To avoid this situation, consider these items when buying:

• The number one consideration is location, location, and location. A high-demand property will easily resell.
• What is the community like? See communities
• Are the public schools strong?
• Is the local economy strong?
• What local government services (like libraries, parks, etc.) are provided?
• Are the taxes relatively low?
• Is property in the neighborhood still in demand, or past its prime?
• Are the streets safe for kids to play?
• Is the house convenient to the Interstate, shops, mall, etc.?
• How would you classify the curb appeal of the house?
• Is the lot desirable?
• Is the home the least or most expensive in the neighborhood?
• What are the house's positives and negatives?
