Once you’ve selected the neighborhood that you would like to shop around for a house, it’s time to start visiting open houses, explore online listings of homes and work with your real estate agent in identifying properties that you might be interested in and can afford. Here are some things to look out for when you know you have found the right house. 

• You are eager to go inside the home and explore what it has to offer. First impressions really count so when you feel excited as you pull up to the curb of the house that is a really good sign. It means that something about this property appeals to you. 
• As you walk into a home that is listed for sale you will know right away if you feel comfortable and if the house is welcoming and warm. Does it feel like home? Does it invite you to explore further? 
• Bathrooms are weird rooms to explore during a home tour – most buyers will open the door and poke their head in to see what it looks like, but they’ll feel uncomfortable doing it. It’s a good sign if you walk into the bathroom and feel comfortable looking inside the shower, touching the vanity and familiarizing yourself with the room confidently. 
• If you begin feeling defensive about the property when others point out small or big flaws it could be a sign that you are getting attached to the home – almost as if it is already yours. Just remember that it is important to acknowledge any things that need fixing and determine if you’ll be able to fix them or live with them if you end up purchasing the property. 
• You may have walked into your future home if you begin envisioning the arrangement of your furniture, where you would place family pictures and seeing yourself enjoying a morning cup of coffee in the backyard. If you can see yourself living in this house and building a life, then you may have found the right house. 
• If the house checks off the boxes for the most important needs and wants on your list, it’s a good sign that you’ve found the right place. If the home has the right number of rooms, a good floor plan, is spacious and has the amenities you are looking for then it’s time to make an offer. 
• If you’re ready to stop looking at other homes and you can’t wait to start bragging about your house to your friends and family, then it’s a sure sign that you have the found the perfect property for you and your family. If you feel this way about a property, then it’s important to act fast and work with your agent to draft up an offer immediately. If you love the house, then chances are that someone else does as well. Once you submit an offer and open escrow you will get a chance to do inspections, visit the house again and dive deep to ensure that it’s still as perfect as you imagined it to be. If something is off, then you can re-negotiate or cancel escrow, but getting your offer accepted is the first big hurdle to get over.
