“May your walls know joy; may every room hold laughter and every window open to a great possibility.” –Maryanne Radmacher-Hershey
The perfect home does not exist. After all, the parameters that define what a perfect home have always been largely subjective that what is considered perfect for one individual might not be as ideal to another one. What makes a home ideal can denote various things to different individuals insomuch that aiming for perfection is not only impossible but impractical as well. However, while that may be true, you can opt for the more feasible alternative such as ensuring that your home is great by ascertaining that all the characteristics of a good home are present. In this regard, you can expect to attract more prospective buyers or potential tenants should you ever wish to put your property up for business. Should this be your objective in the future, then you ought to engender a real estate property that is designed to meet the needs of your potential tenants or buyers. Take note: Real estate properties are significant investments. In this regard, you should avoid having a myopic view of what would be considered excellent and ideal additions for your homes.

So, before you start improving your homes in Rochester Pasig or elsewhere, you might want to take a look at the characteristics of a good home to improve your chances of a sale or successful tenancy.
1.) Location
Pretty much anyone who has come up with a real estate article would emphasize the importance of location. In fact, many of them would stress the importance of the three L’s known as location, location, and location which would only highlight its significance in selecting a prospective property. Indeed, location is paramount—especially when it is time to sell. In fact, when it comes to the characteristics of a good home, nothing can trump location. You can have a messy kitchen and even a disorganized bath, but if it is located in a secure location with pretty much everything in proximity, you will have a coveted home. After all, a home buyer can change what he or she does not like in a home. But there is only so much you can do about its location.
2.) The school district
Another thing that would encourage a prospective tenant or home buyer to transact business with a home seller is a property that is situated in a good school district. In fact, many home buyers would start their search based on the school they want their kids to enroll in or they, themselves would want to study in. Parents want the best schools for their children and single individuals who would wish to continue their education want to be enrolled in premier universities. These are things you might want to consider when selecting a property.
3.) The home’s position on the lot
While some might overlook this facet, to some home buyers this can make or break a sale. How the house sits on the lot in relation to the street is a key element when it comes to picking out a home for some homeowners. In a condo, this would mean the position of the unit whether it is an end one or a unit sitting in between two units. Sure, you can have a beautifully renovated
home and one that is located in a premier location, but some prospective buyers or tenants might balk at the idea of the situation themselves in between two homes. Apart from having their privacy compromised, they would also have to contend with the inevitable noise that would result from being in between two homes or units.
4.) Security
More than anything, a prospective home buyer or renter would want to feel safe and secure in their potential homes. In this regard, you might want to check the crime statistics first before selecting a potential property for your endeavor. However, be realistic about the numbers. Do not let petty crime deter you from considering a neighborhood. Remember, crime—especially petty ones—are prevalent anywhere and everywhere. Unless you want to invest in an upscale neighborhood, you can overlook trivial misconduct and offenses.
