About This Quiz

Whether you binge HGTV like you're the next Joanna Gaines or have never watched it before, everyone has at least heard of "House Hunters," the show where couples and families hunt for their dream home with the help of a trusty real estate agent. At some point, we've all envisioned our dream house or saved pictures on a Pinterest board. Now, we can't get you a spot on the show, but we can make you feel like you are while taking this quiz. And at the end of it, we'll guess which state you should live in based on your answers.

This quiz is your chance to see if you really know all the things you'd want in a dream house. Do you want to live near the city or far out in the country? What type of material would you pick for your kitchen countertops? Could you decide on a color for cabinets throughout the house? It seems easy to pick out things for a dream home, but when it comes down to narrowing things down it can be tough to make a final decision! But now is your chance to feel like you're on the show, so don't wait any longer and take this fun quiz!
