If you currently have kids or are expecting and looking for a new home for your family, there are a few key details to look out for. Sunset Realty Services can help you identify a family friendly home and ready for everything you can throw at it!

Bring the Kids with You

Obviously, the adults are paying for the home, but it is just as important to include your children when looking for a new home. Bring the children with you once you have narrowed down your choices of potential homes and see what they think. By including your kids in the search you are preparing them for the eventual move and making the browsing process a little more exciting. Plus, having a home picked out by everyone in the family really brings about a special feeling for homeowners.

Review the Size and Layout of the Family Friendly Home

Having a family-friendly home means having enough space for your family to grow into it. Most families will not want to purchase and move into a smaller home than what they already own. Make sure your potential home has enough space, including bedrooms and bathrooms. Younger children will need additional space for play areas and storing their toys. Having younger children also means that stairs may make it difficult to navigate the house. Consider a home layout with the master bedroom nearby the other bedrooms if you have a newborn or young child. Additionally, the size of the bedrooms might be more important for families with older children who want more personal space and spend more time in their room.

Location is Always Key

Finding the perfect family-friendly also means finding the prime location for your family to grow up. You probably do not want your young children to live right next to a busy street that is noisy and dangerous. Living in a cul-de-sac or on quieter street is ideal for families to truly appreciate their new neighborhood. Location not only includes where your house is at on the street but also the community itself. Aim for access to good schools and medical services.
