TO BUY NEW OR NOT TO BUY???

THAT IS THE QUESTION!!!

Now that is truly the twenty point question for sure!!!

There are so many answers to this question depending on what type appliance you are seeking and what price range or brands you are interested in. To help you out, though, we are suggesting you do these things:

  • First, make a list of all the amenities you want in your new appliance. Now, go down the list and put in order your list of needs from least to greatest. Last, scrutinize your list and see if there are any amenities or gadgets that you can do without. By making a short but comprehensive list of needs you will be able to narrow down which brands will offer the appliance that will best suit your needs. Also, this will help you get out of that "Buyer's I want it ALL Mode". By taking time to decipher our REAL needs, you can save yourself some real money!!! Last, ask yourself, "Am I a person who wants a, _____ fill in the blank, that looks good- performs well- is hardy- fancified- or whatever? Do I need the appliance to just work or do I want it to make me look good or improve home value?" Get to the core of why you need this new appliance.... Brainstorming on paper always helps to make a level headed decision.
  • Second, we suggest you give us a call! We love to give sound advice. We won't completely endorse any one brand or another due to legal issues but we can send you in the right direction for sure! We know people in town whom we would trust buying from and whom are "straight shooters" as well.
  • Third, get out those Consumer Reports Magazines or get online at their website. Taking a little time to research the field you are buying in can really save you money. They have unbiased reports you can peruse as well as Environmental tips on buying Environmentally Friendly appliances.
  • Fourth, Ask your neighbors! Ask all your friends and family about their appliances. What has met their needs?
  • Fifth, Do you know a real estate salesperson??? If you do, phone them next for sure!!! Chances are they are gonna be in the know about which appliances you can trust and what will improve the value of your home. They will know what insurers prefer as well as potential buyers.
  • Sixth, and last, take a deep breath and go with your gut, or if you are the praying mind, pray on it. I always believe that if you listen to yourself, your gut, and listen to God, you will make a good buying decision. If you have done your homework and researched the appliance.... If you have made your wants list and know what you need to meet you needs....
  • At this point you should know: What you want, why you want it, whom to purchase from, what your friends and family think, what will make your home more pleasing in the potential need to sell, and last that you are comfortable with the decision you have made!

Go buy that new appliance!!!! And, the very last tidbit is finally give us a call to haul off that old appliance and have her recycled. She would be ever so sad in a huge landfill!!!
