Step 1: Find the perfect assistant
Working with a good real estate agent will not only expand your resources and reduce your headaches, but they can be more of an "executive assistant": always conscious of your needs and dislikes, looking to help you meet your goals, highly trained in the precise tasks of enabling real estate buying or selling to be a smooth and painless transaction. If you find a great real estate agent, they will help you formulate a checklist of requirements for your dream home. They will help you sell your existing property, and they will coordinate all of the legal proceedings so you can focus on your plan to move. The best real estate agents work at your pace.

The professional real estate agent will have access to a large database of luxury homes, and will be able to narrow down the available choices from tens of thousands of properties down to a manageable amount of properties that meet your requirements. A luxury home should meet all of your desires and a the right real estate agent will help accelerate your dream's realization.

Step 2: Developing the checklist
The checklist doesn't have to be extremely long or detailed, in fact you could come up with five broad characteristics that your luxury home MUST have and narrow the search right away. Your five broad requirements might include "swimming pool", "over 25 acres", "waterfront", "community population under 10000" and "guest house". Eventually you will want to make a more thorough checklist, with many details such as "central air", "sunroom", "central vacuum", "three full bathrooms". One of your first items in the checklist should be a ballpark estimate of your budget for your luxury home purchase.

Step 3: Feel comfortable with your potential luxury property
When you visit a luxury home for sale, make sure you are very comfortable with the look and feel of your home. Will sunny mornings resonate throughout the house, enabling energized wake ups, or is the sunrise blocked by trees or relegated to the other end of the house? Will you be able to garden if desired? Will the kids be able to navigate from the bedroom to the kitchen in the morning with ease? How is the sound in your entertainment room? Is there enough garage space for all of your vehicles? Often when you arrive for the first time in the perfect luxury home, you will get a warm feeling that tells your brain that you are in the right place.
