Take time to make a wish list of what you’re about to have and a second one of what you must have to fulfil your family’s requirements when you begin to consider a custom home renovation if it’s your first home or a temporary property.  

The “wish” list allows you to obsess, while the “needs” list keeps you grounded. Making lists sets expectations prevents rash choices and promotes an objective balance between imagination and reality. This activity may also aid in the selection of your new home’s location and surroundings.   

When combined, the lists provide a basis for a targeted search eventual acquisition of the home that best fits your lifestyle, ensuring your happiness now and in the future.  

To get you to start, take the following suggestions:  

1. Keep separate lists

Make a list of your own “wants” and “needs.” Separate lists will assist you in recognizing what you need and prioritizing everything else.  

2. Take your time

All lists should be kept open for brainstorming sessions and random ideas. After visiting open houses, model homes, sales centres, or local home shows, set aside time to add to your lists. The aim is to investigate and evaluate options as part of the search for your ideal house. We believe that providing customers precisely what they want is more straightforward when they come prepared with specific ideas.  

3. Start a clip file

To reinforce and illustrate your ideas, add pictures and articles from magazines, newspapers, and internet resources to your lists, giving even more information for a design professional or custom home builders 

4. Think outside the kitchen.

Keep in mind storage facilities, laundry and service rooms, and family and entertainment areas, in contrast to the “glamor” rooms. These “extra spaces” are essential to your family’s comfort and ultimate happiness.  

5. Community considerations

Consider climate (temperature or seasonal variations), travel time or distance from services and facilities, and closeness to family and friends when planning your perfect house. Keeping track of your preferences can help you limit your options for a new home’s general area or neighbourhood. To further identify the characteristics of your house and its environment, make a list of the everyday chores and leisure activities you like (and maybe don’t), both in your home and in the surrounding region.  

6. List your don’ts.

Keep note of the things that bother you about your present home (as well as other houses you’ve lived in, seen, or visited) and vow to avoid or alter them. Then, take the opportunity that your new home provides for a fresh start.  

Conclusion  

Take an objective and unbiased look at what’s required and what you’re prepared to trade-off, for whatever reason, once you’ve finished each list to your satisfaction. Next, make a priority list for each item and cross out those that are impractical or unneeded. Then move low-priority things to separate lists of desires and requirements for which you may hope or plan in the future.  

By the time you finish, what began out as a mess of dreams has turned into a well-defined set of expectations and objectives. At the same time, you’ve produced a guide for a designer or a home builder that will be invaluable in helping you design a home that fits your lifestyle and represents all you’ve ever wanted in a new home.
