The recent mix of sales gives you a better touring filter than online photos alone.

If every home is starting to blur together, I would change how you tour before you see one more property. In Sumner, WA, recent closings included homes from 816 square feet up to 2,868 square feet over the previous month, and that range is exactly why you need a tighter filter for size and function.
Recent closings in Sumner, WA covered a broad size span, from 816 to 2,868 square feet over the previous month. The typical sold size was 2,305 square feet, so I would use that as a practical midpoint when deciding whether a home feels small, typical, or notably larger. For buyers, this helps reduce wasted tours. When homes vary this much in size, price differences are not enough on their own, and I would rather compare layout efficiency and daily usability than chase houses that look better online than they function in person. Set a minimum and maximum size before the weekend starts. Take notes on layout, storage, and room utility during each tour. Drop any home that misses your space needs even if the photos were strong. Keep your energy for the homes that truly fit.
