If you are married and have kids then #1 priority should be School District and school ranking. You don't want to live in Ghetto Neighborhood with poor school district and raise your kids there. #2 closer to your work. You don't want to commute hours everyday for work
#3 budget #4 Look for details like how many bedroom you need, kitchen design , living room design , house builder reputation, requires big yard or small etc
Old house/New house it doesn't matter to me and always go with the price. Before contacting any realtor, try sites like Redfin/Zillow. Try to find open house and start visiting those houses. You will know lots of ideas. Once you visit at least 10 houses and get to know what you want then find a realtor who doesn't push much. Redfin has it's own realtors and they are good too. Much of US is going as a Seller's market. So you won't able to bargain much.
Good Luck!
