Is now the time?
You know the story: Cheerios are scattered on the kitchen counter, shoes are piled in the entryway, and fall activities (is it your turn to bring snacks for the soccer team?) are in full swing. Amid the happy chaos of back-to-school season, many parents wonder if their current home is meeting their busy family's needs—and if now is the right time to move.

Follow the steps outlined in this article to feel less stress and anxiety, and more confident about the homebuying process.
