- Climate – How much sunshine do you want each year? Do you want to be able to curl up in front of the fire when it’s snowing, or do you need to be close to the beach? Choose a property with the best climatic conditions for you.
- Privacy – Do you want your lifestyle block to be out in the wilderness and away from others, or do you want some neighbours nearby to interact with?
- Sport & Recreation – What local sports and recreational facilities would add appeal to your choice? Do you need gyms or swimming pools nearby?
- Shops – What shops and supermarkets are nearby, and are their prices competitive? How will you restock other supplies, and how often?
- Price – Is the price of the property affordable for you? Be realistic about what type of property you can afford, to avoid financial stress later on.
