few things she’s trying to get at with the article.
#1: think with your heart, not with your head. finding that perfect home should be a pure emotional decision. (aka. hun, here’s the checkbook. oh look, they are so happy now).
#2: when you find that perfect house, don’t lowball, just accept the asking price because this is afterall a purely emotional decision. is there really a price for that perfect home?
you have to wonder if she wrote a similar article asking sellers to consider the buyers’ feelings during the period of significant cut throat bidding wars and sellers making buyers write essays about why they should be the one allowed to finance the sellers’ early retirement.
