House Hunting Spreadsheet | Home Comparison Tracker, Match Score Engine (Excel Tool)
House Hunting Spreadsheet | Home Comparison Tracker, Match Score Engine (Excel Tool)
Turn "they all kind of look the same" into "House #2 wins, here's why." By the fifth open house, every kitchen blurs into the next and your phone notes are a mess. This spreadsheet fixes that: score every house on 15 weighted criteria, get a 0–100 match score per home, and watch the winner emerge clearly, backed by your priorities rather than an agent's pitch. Works in Excel and Google Sheets, with instant download.
Match Score Engine
Each house is scored 1 to 10 across 15 criteria, and you set the weight of each one for what matters to you. The spreadsheet computes a weighted 0–100 match score per home, so a real winner emerges instead of a tie. Most house-hunting sheets offer 5 to 8 criteria with equal weight; this one gives 15 with custom weights.
