How to Compare Houses: A Handy Checklist for Home Shoppers

House hunting is an adventure—sometimes exhilarating, sometimes exhausting. When you’re touring several homes, the details can blur together faster than you’d expect. That’s why having a clear, easy-to-use system for comparing houses can make all the difference. Whether you’re a seasoned buyer or just starting your home search, a simple checklist can help you keep track of what matters most to you.

Here are some smart tips to help you compare each property with confidence:

• Bring a notebook or use a worksheet for each home you visit. Jot down your impressions right after the tour—your memory will thank you later!
• Be honest with yourself about what you love, what you can live with, and what’s a dealbreaker.
• Pay attention to your gut feeling—sometimes the little things make the biggest difference.
