California. Beach, sun, waves, and endless summers.

If you are on the hunt for an ocean view home in California, you have got to see the ones here in Santa Cruz! These homes offer the ultimate comfort and lifestyle with prices that are absolutely to die for!

Keep reading as I show you how to make your pick among all these wonderful homes on the Santa Cruz beachfront!

Make a Short list 

That’s always the first step when choosing between ocean view homes in Santa Cruz. All the listings you see are great, and each of them has something special to offer.

I would also recommend making notes beside each of these listings. Make one or two notes about each home’s pros and cons, like this.

Pros: great location, large backyard.

Cons: swimming pool maintenance is costly.

Each family and each individual has their own preferences and special circumstances. There’s no shortage of homes here, so be careful not to get too carried away when looking at homes!

Make a shorter list 

Here’s the painful part: narrowing down the list.

From your initial search, you’ll have accumulated dozens of homes. You can put the best ones on one side, and the not-so-great ones on the other side.

Now it’s time to do some digger deeping. This is when going through photos online just doesn’t cut it anymore. Set aside some time this week to visit these homes in person and see what they look like in person.

You may opt to prioritize seeing the nicer homes first, and see if any of those hold up in person. If you find yourself unsatisfied with them, try giving the not-so-great ones a chance.

Make that list even shorter! 

Now that you’ve seen what these ocean view homes in Santa Cruz look like in person, it’s time to do some deliberation.

Ask yourself this question: Can I picture myself living in this home for the next 5 years?

Buying a home is no easy task. It requires a great deal of money, effort, and consideration. No one would want to move in to a home only to move out after a few months or a year.

In most cases, 5 years is enough time to live in a house before selling without losing money.

As you ask yourself whether you can picture yourself living in this house for the next 5 years, consider items such as mortgage payments, work and education, lifestyle, age of family members, the neighborhood, and the like.

Act fast 

Great homes don’t stay on the market very long. Keep this in mind and avoid unnecessary delays.

The last thing you would ever want to happen to you is to finally decide on a home only to discover that it has already been sold. This happens not only in real estate, but practically everywhere else.

There’s a lot to consider when buying an ocean view home, but in all my years as a real estate agent I can tell you that it will all be worth it! Your whole family will get to enjoy your private sanctuary with amazing California views and unparalleled comfort.
