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,
