Location, Location, Location!

You know what they say… the three L’s in real estate are: location, location, location!!! You may be able to repaint the walls, renovate a bathroom, or change the countertops, but you can’t change where your roots are planted! 

Believe us when we say we completely understand there are a million decisions that go into moving into a new home! Rightly so - your home is one of the largest investments you will likely ever make. That’s why finding the home of your dreams in the right location is so important, and it’s something that our team puts a lot of thought into when deciding where to build our communities! Here are a few things to consider when choosing the right location for your home! 

First, consider what the town has to offer. Is there a strong sense of community? Does the community come together for local events and activities? Are you close to delicious dining opportunities? What is the town’s infrastructure like? Do you have convenient access to shopping, groceries, and everyday necessities? Is there room for growth in this town? Take a look at what’s already there and what’s planned to come for food, shopping, and entertainment options! Truly scope out what the town has to offer! For example, Collierville offers its residents an abundance of opportunities and resources, for personal enjoyment and community connections, along with fun seasonal events that bring the town together!

Another consideration: accessibility. Is your town easily connected to the rest of the city? Is where you’re looking to buy seemingly land-locked? Can you hop on the interstate in about 5 minutes from wherever you are in town to head into Memphis or out of town to larger destinations? Is the drive to public and private schools simple? The right home location should make getting where you need to go feel easy and convenient! 

Imagine your daily habits. What does that look like if you move to your new home? What does your commute to work look like? How close are you to a Target? Are there close sports complexes and churches for your after-school-and-work life? Can you access a coffee shop for your Saturday morning fix? Can you comfortably host Thanksgiving here? Is there room for your family to play here? You can’t just consider the house, but also consider the life you’ll live around it! 

Lastly, what does the neighborhood offer that you’re looking to build in? Are there lovely amenities like walking trails, ponds with fountains, or a community pool? Is it in close proximity to what the town offers? Is the builder reputable? At Magnolia Homes, we can check YES to all of these boxes in Collierville, TN! 

Choosing the right home is about finding the right place for the life you want to build! When you find the right location, you’re not just choosing where to live, but where to put down roots and make memories!
