This is why location often plays as much of a role in a home&#8217;s value as its size, age, or condition.<\/p>\n<p>That doesn&#8217;t mean every home in a less-than-perfect location is difficult to sell. In fact, many buyers are willing to overlook certain drawbacks if the overall lifestyle, convenience, or long-term value is right.<\/p>\n<p>The key is understanding which location features buyers value most and making sure those strengths take center stage in your marketing.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"geo-cta widget-cta widget-cta--content     widget-cta--dark widget-cta--dark-blue-gradient\">\n    <div class=\"widget-element--content\">\n        <div class=\"widget-element--content-header\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"homelight logo\" class=\"widget-element--logo\" src=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/ccprototypev5\/images\/logo-small-cta.png\" width=\"106\" height=\"25\" \/>\n        <\/div>\n        \n                <h3 class=\"cta-headline widget--bold\">How Much Is Your Home Worth Now?<\/h3>\n                        <p>Home values have rapidly increased in recent years.

Others may be looking for a short commute, highly rated schools, nearby hiking trails, or a quiet cul-de-sac where children can play.<\/p>\n<p>Location also influences something every buyer thinks about, whether consciously or not: future <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/what-hurts-property-value\/\">resale value<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Retired Wisconsin real estate agent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/tonispott\/\">Toni Spott<\/a> says the key for sellers is to focus on what you can control: the price, condition, and marketing of your home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can change the price of the house. You can change the shape the house is in. But you can&#8217;t change the location.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Spott says buyers often weigh location before they even begin evaluating the home&#8217;s cosmetic features. However, a good agent can identify and market a home&#8217;s location strengths \u2014 even some you may not be fully aware of.<\/p>\n<p>While buyers have different priorities, here are some location factors that tend to have the biggest influence on purchasing decisions:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Location feature<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Why buyers care<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.homelight.com\/blog\/buyer-walkability-score-by-address\/\">Walkability<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Easy access to restaurants, parks, and everyday

work with you from beginning to closing to get you the best price and make it the least stressful experience,\u201d Spott says, adding that this includes knowing how to market your home\u2019s
