Before You Look

Two people who have to agree on a house, answering fifteen questions separately — and finding out what they actually agree on before the eleventh showing.

Most house disagreements aren’t about the house. They’re about a kitchen one of you would live with and the other wouldn’t — which is money and a weekend, not incompatibility. A few are about things you can’t change without moving again: where it is, whether there are stairs, how much land, who else has to fit in it. Those are the ones that cost someone their patience at house eleven.

This sorts yours into the right piles.

How it works

  1. 1
    You answer fifteen questions and get a six-character code.
  2. 2
    You send the code to the other person — your partner, your sister, your mother, whoever has to agree with you.
  3. 3
    Neither of you sees anything until you’ve both finished. That’s deliberate. Answers you give while you can see someone else’s aren’t worth much.
  4. 4
    You both get the same page: what you agree on, what a gap costs, and what to settle before you see a house.

It works for anyone who has to agree with someone: couples, an adult child and a parent, siblings who inherited a house together, a buyer and the parent helping them. Every question is about the house — none of them ask about you.
