Home Buyers Need to Take Notes

House hunting can become slightly overwhelming.

You might forget one house from the next. You may get frustrated that you haven't found your dream home or get so excited you forget to focus on your wants and needs.
Its a good idea to write down simple description of the homes you see.  I usually give my buyers a copy of the MLS sheet so they can write on the back.  After you see a few homes they all start to look the same and frequently you start remembering the good points of a few homes as features of the same home.  Some buyers are very disappointed when they go back to the home they think they want to make an offer on only to find they had blended a few homes together in their mind. 

The key to keeping the facts straight when viewing a number of homes is to write down the pros and cons of each home next to the address.  If the seller will allow it, pictures help.
