In Consideration of a Home Purchase and Making a Decision Work For You

Within each home there are private, service and communal living spaces. Use some drawing paper to map out a flowchart that interconnects rooms that are related in these rooms when considering a home purchase. The kitchen and dining area are often near each other as they both function to provide sustenance. However, people tend to keep bedrooms away form service areas due to their tendency to have higher noise levels. Who wants a bedroom next to a pool area?

On your diagram list the activities that you and your family engage in regularly. This will give you an idea of the ambiance to give to your home that will reflect your lifestyle and values; for example, vibrant and open or secluded and peaceful. Now for each room in your flowchart repeat the process to determine the best atmosphere that reflects that space in relation to your family's needs and values.

It is important that the diagram and suggestions be inclusive of all family members in order for it to "fit". Be as creative as you like and then edit back, some of those whacky-off-the-wall ideas can lead to inspiring innovations that can become a distinctive feature for your family home. Remember, this is your home – enjoy making it so.
