Let’s face it, gas prices are not going down any time soon. With this in mind, some home buyers are looking not only at how many bedrooms and bathrooms a house has, but they are also looking for neighborhoods that are more pedestrian friendly.  Buyers want to know what is in and around the neighborhood of their future home.  

We’ve found a pretty cool tool to help you assess how “walkable” your neighborhood is. Click HERE to visit the website and type in the listing address. After you click on the “Go” button, you will receive a “walkscore” and get a detailed report about nearby restaurants, shopping venues, banks, public transportation, libraries, schools, etc. complete with a map and distances. Keep in mind that the information may not be 100% accurate, but it does still give you a snapshot of the neighborhood and its local businesses.

Have any additional questions about your “walkscore?” Give us a call today!

We are committed to helping you Buy. Sell. Live. SMART!
