purchasing house

• How many houses should I view before purchasing one?

How many times to look at a house before purchasing? Ideally, four to six viewings should be sufficient. Attending two to three visits inside, with a realtor and/or appraiser, and another two to three visits scouting the house and neighborhood independently, from the outside, may be a good approach.

It also depends on your budget and the kind of house you are looking for. If you have a limited budget, it may be difficult to find the house you want, and you may have to spend more time searching for a suitable house.

It's a good idea to view multiple properties to get a sense of what's available and to make an informed decision. Some people find the right home after viewing just a few, while others may need to see many more.
