Buying a Minneapolis home? Search all Homes for Sale
Today I'm at The Links at Northfork golf course. Behind me is a home I sold a while ago. While these homes are usually very nice investments to make, there are some things that need to be considered.
- One of these things is how your home is positioned along the golf course. Over 90% of golfers are right handed, and 80% of them slice their ball to the right. This means if your home is on the right side of the fairway, it will be prone to more broken windows from golf balls, and your backyard could be hazardous during the daytime.
- Homes along the fairway are often less expensive compared to homes on the tee or near the green.
- Another thing to think about is that during the golfing season, you'll have to put up with the constant noise of golf course equipment and golfers in general. Gas-operated golf carts are also a major contributor of noise.
- However, there are many positive aspects of living on a golf course, especially if you love to golf!
If you're interested in buying one of these properties, make sure you know a Realtor that knows the area well and can steer you towards a nice property.
As always, refer to me with any questions you might have about this information!
