Considering much more than location alone You’ve heard the old real estate saw “location, location, location.” In dental real estate, the ideal find is far more complicated. Securing the best site for your practice requires careful consideration of additional factors such as lifestyle, competition, and demographics. It requires attentive management, conscientious oversight and orchestration of myriad details. In the best hands, the stress and uncertainty of finding a new office location is displaced by confidence and trust. Austin Wheeler of Thomas Allen explains, “In your initial consultation, one of our specialists will explore with you what you are hoping to get out of your practice and then explain exactly how we will help you achieve your goals. We’ll discuss your lifestyle needs and desires in detail, before any property search begins. Your office location will have a major impact on your personal and professional life, as well as the lives of your immediate family members. Most people do not want a long commute to work, so you will want to select a site that is close to where you already live or want to live. If you have school-age children, staying in the same schools or finding a neighborhood with a great school may be a priority. Proximity to aging parents, your spouse’s job, or other factors that matter to you may influence your choice of a location. It’s important for us to listen and thoroughly understand your goals and prerequisites before beginning a search.” Next, the team will closely examine the demographic makeup of the areas you are considering. “We work with general dentists NORTH TEXAS DENTISTRY | www.northtexasdentistry.com 7
