What You Should Actually Be Looking At
1. Layout Flow
Does the house function… or just look good?
2. Natural Light
Photos lie. Light doesn’t.
3. Neighbor Proximity
Look out the windows. Not just at the house.
4. Condition Clues

- Flooring wear
- Quick fixes
These tell a story.
5. Big Ticket Items
- Roof age
- HVAC
- Windows
6. Noise
Traffic. Dogs. Neighbors.
7. Future Resale
Would someone else want this later?
