“How much is my house worth?” Even if you aren’t even thinking about selling this is a question that has probably popped into your mind recently. Maybe a for sale sign went up in your neighborhood and you wondered if your house would sell for more than that house down the street.
The vague answer is your home is worth whatever a ready, willing and able buyer pays for it at the time you put it on the market. But if you don’t have your house on the market there are a few tips that can give you an idea of where your home stands in the value department.
You can look online for comparable homes for sale in your neighborhood with similar square footage and bed/baths. REALTORS® use comparable homes active, sold and expired to help price your home accurately at the time you put your home on the market as a starting point for what your home is worth.
