Finding Your Dream Home – From Asim Aliloski

When people come to me as a buyer’s advisor after viewing countless properties—sometimes for years—without finding what they want, it’s often due to mindset blocks preventing them from finding their dream home (or investment property).

I have listed below some of the most common mindset blocks that can sometimes get in the way….

The Budget Issue

You might think a low budget is the main obstacle preventing people from getting what they want. While financial constraints can indeed limit a buyer’s options, other mindset blocks often play a significant role as well.

The Myth of the Perfect Home

I frequently encounter clients searching for the “perfect” home. In my extensive experience viewing properties, I have never found a flawless home. Even properties worth over 45 million Euros can have their imperfections. The reality is that the perfect house likely doesn’t exist, because we are all different. Instead, aim to find the “best” home for you and accept that every home will have its weaknesses. The goal is to grow together with your home, much like in a relationship, improving and adapting over time.

The Exhaustive List of Criteria

Knowing what you want is crucial. However, some clients approach me with a lengthy list of criteria. If you believe you have everything figured out, you may overlook possibilities that haven’t crossed your mind. Life often brings unexpected magic and surprises. Have a clear idea of what you want, but also remain open to unexpected opportunities that might be even better than what you imagined.

The Overthinker

Some clients start meticulously studying floor plans and property diagnostics after viewing a home. While this information is important, it’s also crucial to ask yourself: Have you taken the time to really feel the house? Are you in love with this property, or is it merely ticking boxes? I believe the initial feeling should be right before diving into the technical details.

The Budget Stretch

I never recommend living beyond your means or overspending. However, sometimes it’s necessary to expand your financial mindset to reach the next level in life. If you fall in love with a house that is slightly beyond your budget, don’t immediately give up. Instead, see it as an opportunity to make new decisions in life, even if it feels uncomfortable. There are many tools and techniques to help you overcome any uncertainty.
