We conduct a free “Comparative Market Analysis” of your property using our local market knowledge and the latest data on house prices in your region. We’ll talk about pricing tactics once we’ve determined a range for what your house may be worth in today’s market.

The housing market is directly influenced by supply and demand, or in this example, the number of homes for sale and the number of homebuyers. The historically low mortgage rates have enabled more people than ever before to become homeowners. There are now fewer properties for sale than there are homebuyers. This has led property values to skyrocket, creating the most favorable market for sellers in history.

Your house’s value will be determined partly by its proximity to shopping, landmarks, restaurants, parks, and transit. Buyers also assess the neighborhood’s security and the quality of nearby schools and leisure services.

If a homebuyer is financing the property with a mortgage (the most typical situation), the property’s appraised value must be equal to or greater than the purchase price. The buyer’s lending institution employs an independent appraiser who uses a procedure comparable to ours to determine the worth of your house. Unless the home appraises for the contract amount or higher, we must renegotiate the purchase terms before closing.

Comps are the primary benchmarks used to assess the market value of your property or house. A comparable is a property similar to yours and has recently sold in the area.

Homes that have been well-maintained and have received infrastructure upgrades such as roofing, plumbing, and heating/cooling may receive better offers. Depending on the homebuyer, additions, renovations, and special amenities such as pools may also boost value.

Here are some suggestions for increasing the value of your property.

The process of advertising and selling your home
