To ask a question or make a comment about Poughkeepsie, New York Click Here.
See the AskMe Feature Below.
1. Write out a list of activities your family normally likes to do. You can then look for homes that have the right kind of space for your family. The first couple of homes we bought, we just went looking and decided on what we thought was the prettiest. However, we really didn’t think about how we lived and consequently neither of these houses were comfortable for us. A relocation expert specializing in relocating to Poughkeepsie, New York, can help you analyze what type of home in Poughkeepsie New York would suit your family.
2. Decide what your monthly housing budget will be once you move to Poughkeepsie, New York. Qualify and get approved for a mortgage before you even arrive. If possible, schedule a house hunting trip about 6-8 weeks before you will be transferred. That way you can move right into your home when you relocate to Poughkeepsie New York without having to stay in a Hotel. When we moved we actually parked the moving van at our new home, spent 2 hours closing the loan and then moved right in!
3. Decide which features in a home you have to have, and which would be nice to have. Focus on homes that meet your “have-to” requirements and then use “would be nice” features to determine which home to buy. For example: I had to have four bedrooms but I didn’t have to have a formal dining room as long as the house had a large breakfast room. There are many homes in Poughkeepsie New York, with a great variety of price and amenities. Request a Free “Relocation to Poughkeepsie New York” relocation package (click on link above) from one of our expert Poughkeepsie Real Estate agents and you will be on your way to finding out how much home your budget can buy.
4. How important are schools? You may want to contact some schools in Poughkeepsie, New York and surrounding areas and talk to principles. You will find out much more about schools this way. National test scores are not always an accurate indication of how appropriate the school will be for your child/children. If you have requested a FREE “Relocation to Poughkeepsie New York” real estate information package, the Poughkeepsie Realtor who is chosen to provide that Poughkeepsie Relocation information can also give you valuable advice about which schools are the best in the Poughkeepsie area. Our Realtor told us about one school district whose whole curriculum is built around boosting test scores, but their standard of education and extra-curricular activities were lacking. But the results looked good!
5. How important is ease of upkeep? New homes in Poughkeepsie New York are normally built with energy efficient features and low maintenance exteriors. Older homes in Poughkeepsie New York may make up in charm what they lack in ease of upkeep. My husband is extremely busy and we like to spend what little time we have on our hobbies. So we chose to buy a low maintenance home. My brother, on the other hand, just bought a house built in 1910 and is loving renovating his new home! The wonderful thing about America is that it can accommodate all tastes!

Poughkeepsie (pronounced /p?'k?p.si/) is a city in New York, USA and serves as the county seat of Dutchess County, located in the Hudson River Valley roughly midway between New York City and Albany. The name derives from a Native American word (roughly U-puku-ipi-sing), meaning "reed hut by the water" or "campsite by small water," referring to a spring or stream feeding into the Hudson River. Poughkeepsie is known as "The Queen City of the Hudson."
Poughkeepsie was founded in 1687. The community was set off from the Town of Poughkeepsie when it became an incorporated village in 1799. The City of Poughkeepsie was chartered in 1854.
The city was the capital of New York for a brief period in 1777, and was the site of the ratification of the U.S. Constitution by New York in 1788.
