House Hunting Checklist Helping to Prioritize your Wants vs. Needs

There are many fields of data a listing agent could choose to add for a particular listing but a substantial number of very helpful data fields are not mandatory and many listing agents opt to list only the bare minimum required. This makes setting up an automated home search a bit more complicated. This checklist is an attempt to create an automated search for you that matches most of the criteria that we can most easily search for automatically. In some cases however manual verification of data will still be required.

Key: N - MUST HAVE W - WOULD LIKE (BUT NOT A DEAL BREAKER EITHER WAY) DW - DEFINITELY DON’T WANT

Type of Residence

Housing that is part of an Association will generally have additional fees monthly, quarterly and/or annually. Those fees may range from very nominal annual fees that cover entry signage and basic entry landscaping all the way up to fees that may cover all exterior maintenance of the unit including the roof as well as exterior insurance and some of your basic utilities such as water/sewer/trash/basic cable etc.

If you are interested in any type of housing that will have any type of Homeowners or Condo Association Fee, please indicate the MAXIMUM average monthly fee you think you will be comfortable with. Please feel free to reach out to discuss this if you are not sure how to answer this.

Miscellaneous Criteria

This can be a tricky requirement to set as sometimes a certain size home can feel smaller than it is choppy vs larger if space is well planned out.
Pool Required
If Yes:
Is a community pool acceptable or do you require a private pool
FLOOD ZONE
What level of Flood Zone are you comfortable with, in general these are the Flood Zones you will find in this part of Florida
EVACUATION ZONE

Evacuation zones and Flood Zones are NOT THE SAME. If a home is in an Evacuation Zone the zones range in general from A-E in most counties with A being the first to evacuate. It is possible to be in Flood Zone X but still be in an Evacuation Zone.

The closer you are to the coast the more likely you will be in an evacuation zone. Please ask me to show you the differences and where to find the information. Here is a quick link to some information in Pinellas County: https://pinellas.gov/flood-maps-zones/

Evacuation Zones are not a required data entry field for Listings so there is literally no way to automatically search for that and even with Flood Zones, some listings are incorrectly categorized. All buyers must do their own due diligence to confirm what Flood and Evacuation Zone a home is in.

Are you comfortable buying a home in an evacuation zone?
