Many couples agree on the area, the size and the style. Then they disagree on the price.
Why couples disagree
- Different ideas about what homes cost.
- Different feelings about risk.
- One person is more in love with the home than the other.
A game to find out
Before you start to look, play 20 sold homes in your target area. Both of you guess each home on your own phones. Compare your scores.
You learn three things:
- Who knows the market better right now.
- If one of you always guesses high and the other low.
- Where you agree and where you do not.
Then talk
The talk is easier when it is about data from a game, and not about your feelings for a specific home.
Agree on the maximum
When you have a shared sense of prices, agree on the maximum for the home that you want. Before the viewing.
