How I would use them
Three steps, in this order. It takes a few minutes and it stops you falling for a house on the strength of the photos.
Run the report first
Before you book a viewing, see what similar homes nearby actually sold for.
Go and see it
View it with the numbers in your head, not just the photos.
Score it straight away
Add it to your tracker the same day, while it is fresh, and see how it ranks against the rest.
