ENCORE: Online Marketplace Home Estimates

Paul will return next week with a new episode! Until then, please enjoy one of Paul’s most popular episodes, Online Marketplace Home Estimates. Paul has over 20 years in real estate and here is what he really thinks of online home estimates…

Everyone is guilty of  looking up the price of  their house (and maybe their neighbor’s, too!) on an online marketplace. Sometimes the price of your house seems reasonable and other times…, it’s shocking! In this episode, Paul explains why sellers and buyers can’t always trust an online estimate.

Paul considers these online marketplace estimates to be a just single tool in determining the value of a home. Is your kitchen recently renovated or is your lot on usable acreage (as opposed to a cliff with great views)?  Paul also stresses the importance of comparing sales prices to recently sold homes. If an appraiser isn’t going to consider an online estimate, should you?

The full episode is also available on Paul's YouTube channel!
