Joes Map

I have helped many people choose new places to live and work, a real estate choice is a big decision to make. The first thing I do is make a list of the places that people travel most often. For many people it is the drive to and from work, the grocery store, etc. Some people have specific things they do often as well, if you travel to a particular country club, or golf course every weekend, jot that down.

When you are considering a new place to move, consider the travel distance and time it will take you to get from work to home, if you move 20 miles away, certainly you can find a new grocery store, but will you have to travel even further to get to your gym where you have a 3 year membership?

Consider these things, plot them out on a map, add up the gas, add up the time, and you may find that a pricier piece of real estate is actually saving you money and time.

I often use yahoo maps for distances like these.
