Public Transportation | The Fast Track to Finding the Right Home
Location, Location, Location. Those three words could be music to an agent's ears or the book slamming shut on a real estate deal gone bad.
When helping your client's search for their ideal home, its location most likely tops their list of home-buying priorities.  For some, an excellent location might mean buying a house in a good school district. For others, it could mean to find a home in a neighborhood where its value will likely appreciate over time.
Depending upon what part of the country you live in, others show public transportation for easy commutes to work, shopping, and entertainment at the top of their "must-have" list.
Public Transit Systems: Increasing Pathways to Opportunity
Men and women across the country take billions of trips using public transportation each year. Last year alone, people used public transportation services 34 million times each weekday. With so many people boarding everything from buses and subways to cable cars and water taxis, it's no secret that so many working professionals rely on these services. Access to public transportation provides many opportunities for professionals, like:
- It increases mobility for those unable to commute via a personal car.
- It allows these individuals to afford to commute to employers outside of their immediate area.
- It frees up their time during their commute in which they can work, study, or devote time to themselves.
- It enables them to seek out opportunities to advance their career within the greater metropolitan area without needing to relocate.
Millennials Want Public Transportation
Millennials are entering the buying market and searching for their version of a dream home. The large, sprawling, suburban homes once-popular with their parents and grandparents have been traded in for smaller, more modern-style houses with access to urban conveniences--like public transportation.
