Home Buyer Checklist
The Home Buyer Checklist identifies some of the important factors to consider when choosing a
home. In addition to an affordable sales price, you will also want to be sure that the neighborhood
and house meet the needs of your family.
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. To PRINT this page, hit control-P.
