What’s your home really worth?

What is a Comparative Market Analysis?

A comparative market analysis is a tool that real estate agents use to estimate the value of a specific property compared to similar homes that have recently sold in the same area.

How does it help you?

It can be hard to determine the fair market value of a home because there are so many factors that go into determining it. Figuring out how much to offer or sell a home for can be a challenge. A knowledgeable realtor looks at the property’s age, condition, features, lot size and more. The conditions of the local and national housing markets as have an effect on a home’s value.

Why work with an agent?

Helping find a buyer for your home is only one facet of a real estate professional’s job. There are many more aspects including explaining the basic real estate practices and principles and all the related paperwork, performing a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) to help determine your home’s value, helping to prepare your home for sale, listing your home, marketing your home, keeping you informed throughout the process. When the sale begins, it’s important to work with someone who will assist you with the paperwork, negotiate on your behalf, make sure deadlines are met, and work with the escrow company.
