I have sold many that the buyer thought was perfect at the moment and that is all that matters.

Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, Broker, Tacoma Washington off-late, I am getting luckier!

I have seen buyers in lower price range do not have much expectations - so they are happy as they have fewer boxes to check.

There is no such thing as a perfect house even when they do for a brief time. Finding the best choice is all we can do

Every-time but one.

Because the main boxes are checked and the rest are forgotten once they realize no house is perfect. In 17 years I only had one client mildly regret where he bought, but he "really wanted that neighborhood" when we were looking. Still, he stayed 3 years, then I sold it and then sold him a better house in a better hood and he's happier.

Love it when that happens, but I am happy that all my clients have enjoyed and still enjoy their homes years later.

I think a lot!

I haven't counted but when it happens, it's a good thing.  

that happens all the time with new construction....

Often.

Perfect?  Never.  Good enough to make them happy with the things they can't change, and they'll improve the things that don't?  Always.  

No sir not yet, but the day has just started

I have no idea.

Actually, it's happened pretty often.  But it really gets fun when you check a few extra boxes they weren't expecting!

Rarely is it 'the perfect house' from top to bottom but, when it is, it's pure GLEE!  ;-)

Paul,

Everywhere we found a home, it was perfect at that moment in time...the same goes with people we have worked with.  Tastes change, times change, etc.  A

Several times.  I wish they were all that easy!

I'm not sure that has ever happened. 

Many times Paul. For all the headache deals we have the ones where they buy the first property we show them and are happy.

almost every time!  While in our eyes it may not be "perfect", they had the "aha" moment and fell in love with the house.  

I'd say many!! They think it's perfect at the time they fall in love with it!

I would say all of them.  The house becomes perfect because it was the house they made an offer on and the offer was accepted. 

Not Often but One was a real suprise - 1st day on market - 3 full price offers. The winning buyer turned out to be a best friend of another buyer we were working with - in Denver Colorado - we are in Port St Lucie Florida.  What a suprise!  We had worked with both of them and did not realize that they are best friends~!

Very seldom

Perfect doesn't exist in life or real estate.  Close is what always sells homes.

Still waiting for that to happen.

We have a saying in our office, "if there isn't at least one thing wrong about the house they aren't a real buyer."

Every box?

Perhaps a few, but it is rare

Three times in my personal life have I found "the" one house that my wife and I then turned into our perfect home for us.

Never, ever happened even when the buyer had the home custome built.

Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, Broker, Tacoma Washington I believe buyers are happy if all or most of the boxes are checked. If they are ready to write an offer they are happy.

More often than you would think. 

Debbie Reynolds nailed this one!

Never. I've had buyers with perfect timing, perfect neighborhood, perfect square footage, but never OMG, this house is SOOOOO PERFECT. Never.

Is there a perfect home?  I have bought dozens of them, none were perfect, but all served their purpose and were acceptable.
