December 2013 Houston and National Housing Newsletter
This month's featured video discusses what your home is worth. If you want an accurate estimate of what someone will be willing to pay for your home you need to ask your realtor to conduct a comparative market analysis, known as a CMA. This is yet another situation of when you want to work with an experienced realtor.
A thorough knowledge of the dynamics and property sales in the specific area is required to make judgments based on the data presented for a good CMA. In performing calculations the realtor will add or subtract value for differences in lot or acreage size and do the same for feature differences such as bedrooms, baths, garage spaces, etc.
They will also look for financing differences that could influence the sales price. For example, seller financing can at times result in a higher price paid for a property that is not related to its true value. With a solid, well researched CMA in hand you are now one step closer to understanding the value of your home and listing it for a price that will generate immediate interest.
Remember a Realtor is always the source of information for all your real estate needs.
