How do you help extended families agree on one home?

Helping extended families agree on one home usually starts with separating the must-haves from the preferences for each generation involved, then touring with everyone's priorities written down rather than relying on memory during a walkthrough. A layout with some separation, like a basement suite or a two-family setup, often resolves disagreements about privacy versus togetherness better than compromise on a single shared floor plan. Getting every decision-maker's financing sorted early also prevents late surprises once a home is under contract. Joel Boss has guided multiple extended families through exactly this kind of search.
