When I’m showing homes to buyers I like to say there are things you can change and things you can’t change. You can change the paint colors, you can replace the carpet with some other type of flooring and you can even do a kitchen remodel. You can’t change the lot the house is on. A lot of people want a private lot or a home with a view. It’s hard to change the floor plan in a home in Florida. A block home on a concrete slab is harder to expend and some things like plumbing are beneath the concrete. In 55+ communities the homes are too close together to expend the size other than maybe the Lanai in the back. As a buyer you need to set priorities. Get the things that can’t be changed like a great floor plan or a nice view. Don’t get bogged down on paint or carpet they can be changed.
