They are all equal in my book.

A combination of 1 & 2 will reveal the positives and negatives of the house, in the eyes of the current owner.

 #1 needs the "why" and "why not" sub questions.  It's probably a great start for disclosure purposes.  

#2 is more of a place to determine some marketing points.  

First there is no 10. Question 2 will get you the bestr esults since it focuses on what the home is lacking.

Depends on context of discussion

 I'll take Door #2

All good questions, which to ask depends on your motive in asking.

They are all essentially the same question, so the question you choose depends on the DISC of your client.

Why just one?  #1 would have to be accompanied with a follow up question of Why or Why Not with the yes or no answer. #2 gets you the attributes the homeowners like and #3 that attributes they don't like.  Why not ask all 3? What is your purpose - for finding them a new home?  For listing and marketing their current home? -Kasey

I'm going to go with number 2 as I appreciate sales points and not negatives. If I don't see it and I don't know it then I don't have to disclose it.

I'm going with 3#.  Because it will list all the attributes lacking and help build a better picture of what the client is seeking.  

I recently played Shark Tank with my clients.  After we viewed a home we would discuss it in the car.  They would like all the things they did not like and complete their list with ... and for that reason, I am out.  

Annette,

I think they will all reveal something different.  A

I like #2.  It can be used for sellers and buyers and is strictly positive.

#1 can be negative if they don't like the house and is only applicable to sellers.  Plus I don't see that as a question I'd ask.

#3 focuses only on the negative and I like to keep clients positive.

Maybe, you should ask all three and more.

Maybe #3, it's the one that should solicit what they don't like about the home.

You could add 7 more and they wold all be very important

I tend to look on the bright side so would ask question number 2. In fact I ask that of every seller. The other 2 questions tend to take in too many other factors from neighbors, financial status, location, timing or personal problems that could affect their feelings.

I like all three but it does depend on the context of the conversation.

I like #1 given time, market ups and downs, neighbors and all things I have already repaired 

Boring 

#2 is what I ask my sellers - it really helps with marketing their home too. What was the 'draw' to this house for them, is likely going to be the draw for potential buyers. 

They are all good questions.  But number 1 would get a good discussion going.

Annette Lawrence , Palm Harbor, FL 727-420-4041 Number 2. Benefits always bring home a sale.

#1 is a real live, life-brake when applied...the answer should not take long but instead, reveal itself and its status. Reality is upon anyone who visits #1

I think that will depend a little bit on the person being asked but each question should be revealing.

#3, because what do you mean would I buy it again? Did I already buy it the first time?

3.  I have my clients rate each home that I can find out what a 8 is to find then a 9

Door #2

Question 3 lot of opinions

#2. It is inviting a wider group of topics an detail.
