If you had to choose, which would you rather do – home buying or online dating? Actually, if you compare the pair you’ll find both experiences surprisingly similar.
They each begin with browsing the internet, searching for ‘the one’ that catches your eye and sets your heart a-flutter from the get-go.
When you finally discover an initial attraction that gets your toes tingling, the next stage is a deeper visual exploration of the apparent assets where reading the description and perusing the photos leads you to stage two – reject or accept and proceed.
If there’s a glimmer of anticipation and a dash of desire you’ll take the plunge and tee up a meeting – a face to face opportunity to see if everything seems as good in person as it does on the internet.
Will it be love at first sight? You hope so. And regardless of whether it’s a first date or an open home inspection, you do hope for an initial connection that blows your socks off, gives you goosebumps and sends ‘forever vibes’ shivering up your spine.
With your heart well and truly along for the ride, it’s time for the head to step in and run through the box-ticking process, just to be sure everything is above board and hunky dory.
And when you reach the ‘wow, boxes are all ticked and this really IS a good thing’ stage you’ll tie the knot, seal the deal, and live happily ever after.
Of course both home buying and online dating are processes that rarely run so smoothly and can be quite stressful to say the least.
Not much can make online dating experiences less tedious, but at least with home buying you have buyers advocates to streamline the process and magic away the stressful bits, leaving you to enjoy the journey and the fairytale ending.
