Today’s Posting will focus primarily on our Residential side.<\/p>\n

So say….you’ve just purchased this lovely piece of land or have a place you’ve had for a while and just need a new look, maybe a fresh start after that rough break up? – or just like me and swap out houses every month cause you just like the change of scenery.\u00a0 Today I’ll help provide you with some tips and tricks with placing your new home, where to find the best homes (Listed at the bottom of the posting) – for your budget and how to eliminate those pesky lag causing & covenant violating rez scripts.<\/p>\n

First things first.<\/strong>\u00a0 When purchasing a home or land – there ar a few things to keep in mind,\u00a0 Footprint being one of the major ones & Prim Count.\u00a0 If you purchase a home that is 64m x 64m – sure it may fit on a 4096sqm parcel but it leaves absolutely no room so unless you want your home touching your neighbors – this is not a good idea.\u00a0 Rules of thumb is to leave at least 10m of breathing room around your home if it is not located in the sky – in the sky it doesn’t matter too much as you have so many different elevations to choose from.\u00a0 The room around allows for nice landscaping, natural privacy options and a good overall experience for you and your neighbors that makes you actually want to spend time at your home and show it off to your friends.\u00a0 Rather than that pesky 15-20m privacy wall….why not use natural plot dividers or trees? Many stores offer nice waterfalls and plot dividers at low cost to customers.\u00a0\u00a0 As for prim count – keep in mind things like…is this home pre furnished?\u00a0 How many prims will you need to landscape and decorate?\u00a0 Also allow yourself room to rez and open packages.<\/p>\n
