One means of sharpening buyers’ focus involves making lists of dream-home wants and needs. If nothing else, drawing up such lists helps to crystallize buyers’ thoughts into a tangible form before they begin their searches. For instance, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms may be at the top of the "need” column while hardwood floors may be somewhere in the "want” column. With so much available to buyers these days, separating out wants from needs will help keep buyers’ attention on what they truly require. Otherwise, their attention may be diverted by a non-essential feature that sways them away from making a smart purchase. That way, buyers can prevent themselves from making an emotional decision based on want instead of need.

HINT: By prioritizing their list of needs, buyers can better see what they are willing to compromise on to get something they deem to be more important.
