Home Shoppers Checklist

A Home Buyer Checklist identifies some of the important factors to consider when looking for a home.

In addition to a great sales price, you should also be sure that the neighborhood and house meet the needs of your family.

Print and take this checklist along when you go shopping for your house.

It will help you evaluate the neighborhoods and assess the availability and condition of various features of up to three homes in a side by side comparison.
