how to self evaluate your house on line?

Question

wanting to see how much our home is worth

Answer 1

Homevalues.com could be a starting point. But beware. They send an agent to your house to "appraise" it.

Answer 2

1/ You can use the assessed value of the property per your 2006 tax bill. This is usually lower than fair market value but gives you a general idea.

2/ Get comparable sales of similar properties within a 3-5 mile radius of your home. You can use a real estate agent and get a broker opinion which you may have to pay a nominal fee for or you can do a search of public records using the county website...

3/ Look at at the various internet listing vehiclse to get an idea of what are the average listing prices....

Answer 3

I'm not too sure about Self Evaluating your home (I assume you mean to get a value) as that tends to be done by a surveyor who will look over your property, take consideration of other properties in the area and also the local market and then value your property accordingly.

You can check out www.upmystreet.com to get some idea of your area - check out the Property and Moving section - we had a good look at this along with the local property listings before purchasing our home just over a year ago.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Zillow.com is the closest. BUT, it is reallly FAR from being accorate. I have seen huge errors, in excess of 100k, both directions.

Call an agent and ask for a comp report, it will take them all of two minutes. Most homes really don't need to be seen to get a close estimate on value.

Of course, the real value is what someone is willing to give you, and that is changing rapidly.

Answer 5

Go see an agent and ask for a Market analysis. It won't cost you anything and you will get an objective opinion.
