Relocation / Investing

If you’re a homebuyer, relocating or investing is exciting, but buying a home in a city where you don’t now live brings on many tasks …

Of course, a home is certainly one of the most personal — and for the vast majority of people, the most “expensive” — things they’ll ever buy. And buying real estate by long distance is a little like buying an engagement ring from a newspaper ad.

How do you get a “feel” for the neighborhoods? Are they safe? If you have children, what are the schools like? Is the community geared toward outdoor activities?  Senior communities?  What about hospitals and medical facilities?  Driving distances and walking times?  Churches, synogogues, or other religious organizations?  Movie theatres, restaurants, sporting facilities and events? Are the streets under constant repair?  What about airports and flight connections? How does the weather affect commute durations? Etc.

Are there state income or sales taxes?  Property taxes?  When must they be paid? Rates?  Do you need a lawyer to buy real estate?  (In some states, you do even for the most straightforward sale?)  City or county taxes?  (Sewage?  Garbage?)

Let me see, what else?

Oh, yes, regardless where you’re moving, you’ll very likely need to evaluate your insurance: auto, homeowners, and a cluster of other possible needs.  Life insurance to cover your mortgage balance – rather, you’ll need to see how your life insurance fits your changed situation, given your needs and preferences. Perhaps you received a 401-k (or other qualified plan) distribution you need to put somewhere. And if you are a business owner, you need to see if relocation is exposing you to any new risks (of course, looking at this in a manner consistent with your own values).

If you’re relocating, you may also need to sell your home in your “departure” city to buy a new home in your “arrival” city.
