What do you consider a good deal?

In my opinion, getting a great deal is not always about paying the least amount of money.  This applies to buying a home of course, but can also be said for a dinner out.  I try to tell clients that yes, you want to pay the least amount of money for your next home. Yes, I know that it's a buyers market and you don't want to over pay for a home. Yes, you have looked at a bunch of houses and this is the one you like. Doesn't it also account for the idea that you want to love your home, neighborhood and schools? If you like a home and think it's a good deal, someone else will too. I believe if you find a home you both like, the comparables support the asking price for the most part, you qualify for a loan (which is a big part of the equation) then go for it! When you are moved in to your new home and look back on this experience won't you be glad you did?
