But if you’re one of many people who work remotely, you may have a great opportunity to use the flexibility you have at work to achieve your homebuying goals this year.In a recent report, Arch Capital Services explains how the ongoing trend of remote work can open up more options for homebuyers:“. . . This will enable those who are able to work from home on a part-time or hybrid basis to move slightly farther away from job centers. . . . For workers who secure full-time remote jobs, their place of residence will be determined by affordability and personal preferences.”Basically, working from home is great news if you’re a first-time buyer trying to find a home that meets yo...
