How much is your home worth?
If you are thinking of selling your home, you'll need to know exactly what it is worth before putting it on the market. As Greater Tampa Bay & Pinellas Suncoast Beach area real estate professionals, we analyze home values and determine market prices every day. By comparing your home to recent sales and other, similar homes on the market we can quickly tell you what your home is worth. This analysis is known as "Comparative Market Analysis", or CMA. Just fill out the form to give me the information I need and I'll be glad to perform a CMA for your home and provide you the results for free.
The value of real estate has risen dramatically during the past 35 years,yet market demand still fluctuates & not every property will increase in value over time. Some may actually lose value. Under such market conditions the appraisal process is even more IMPORTANT; shortcut type assumptions that work in a time of rising prices yield devastating results in a time of falling prices. Recent declines in real estate prices in many parts of the USA have caused numerous appraisals to be questioned. Appraiser qualifications inevitably have become part of discussion of ways to avoid the "overappraise" or "underappraise" of the property.
Education, Experience & Objectivity become the foundation establishing this area of CMA & appraisal expertise. Be aware of the benefits technology has provided to this overall process; but be advised that any valuation can involve detailed scrutiny of comparables according to USPAP guidelines (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice www.appraisalfoundation.org). Do not be swayed w/ fancy point & click computerized websites that do not employ these variables.
Be advised, compared to most Realtors that WE are experienced in real estate CMA's; performing years of property valuation with very thorough CMA analysis. A buyer or seller has to be especially careful in this market of today when buying or selling. Each property has to be analyzed in its own specific marketplace w/ similar properties on its own merits, with only the most recent of suitable analyzed & properly adjusted comparables. Many times we might recommend a professional real estate appraisal as a sales marketing tool for that seller.
