How do people who overthink every aspect of their life buy property? I’m down in the Frankston/Seaford area today wondering if I’m an idiot for even considering trying to buy down here. Do I just stick with what I know and continue to be possibly unhappy in an apartment in the inner city suburbs?
If it’s an area you want to move to but are not familiar with, maybe rent there for a while 1st. Also start going to lots of open houses and find out what’s available in your price range, and what things you’re prepared to compromise on. Keep track of auction results. You’ll gain knowledge of the market which will help when you decide to buy.
Do give yourself grace about how you’re feeling - it’s a stressful process involving a lot of money, so of course you’re overthinking. Good luck!
