Happy Easter Everyone!!

What Is Your Home Worth? When you are interviewing REALTORS® to market your home, you'll be introduced right away to a priceless document—the comparative market analysis (CMA). This is one of the areas in which the real estate industry really earns its keep—by showing you in black and white what your competition is. But like a sword, it is a tool that can cut both ways. You and your agent will use the CMA, among other tools, to determine where your home will stand in comparison to others which are on the market, and those which have recently sold to determine the highest possible asking price. Your buyer will use it to find ways to reduce his or her offer. The CMA is typically designed to give quick capsules of information such as number of bedrooms and baths, and approximate square footage. What is not included in the CMA are those factors that affect perception, and that is the key difference between why one home with identical features will ultimately command a higher price than its twin. Perception alters reality. Much of a home's value will ultimately be determined by the emotional impact it has on buyers. These emotions are based on subjective elements such as drive-up appeal, interior decor, colors, views from the windows, light, darkness, room flow and hundreds of other factors. That is why online websites offering to give you the "value of your home" are not accurate. They do not include the very important emotional impact that your home will have on the market. The CMA is clearly a selling tool, but like any tool, it doesn't work very well by itself. It takes a skilled person (who knows the value of your neighborhood) to be able to use it. For this reason, the CMA will always need to be interpreted by a professional, i.e. Lynda McDonough.
