What you should know – Online Valuations versus Market Value

Did you know that consumers can easily get online valuations for your home? Most online valuations are based upon tax records which may not be a good indication of the true “market value” of your home. Market values should consider many factors and may change quickly depending on the latest market conditions. Our Full-Service Real Estate Agents are experts in helping clients determine “market value” and positioning your home for the highest return on investment. This may include information from tax records, property titles, mortgages, recent sales, pending sales, listed and re-listed properties, costs/ trends in new home construction, local market sales trends, population trends, appraisals and other sources of data. Most importantly, an agent that knows your community can add that extra knowledge that cannot be found in statistics and online services. Prudential Gouger O’Neal & Saunders Real Estate provides specialized training and the latest information tools so our agents are the best in helping you discover the unique value of your home.

Online Home Valuations can be a great source of interesting information as you begin to consider your options for selling or buying a home. It is important to understand the data sources of the online service. Some use only tax record data and some add additional sources of data. Prudential Gouger O’Neal & Saunders Real Estate is pleased to provide you with access to Cyberhomes™. We believe that Cyberhomes™ is one of the best online sources currently available and hope you find the information valuable.

If you are thinking about selling your property, you want to ensure that your list price is quickly reflected on the major home valuation sites including Cyberhomes ™, Zillow ™ (beta) and others. Otherwise, consumers may start with a significantly lower expectation of the value of your home. More and more consumers are using these online services every day. Prudential Gouger O’Neal & Saunders Real Estate has the most extensive online exposure for listings of any real estate provider in Moore County! Our agents will quickly establish your online presence so that your home is positioned for the highest return on investment.

Cyberhomes™ valuations are not appraisal reports of the market value of a home prepared by a licensed professional appraiser. They have been generated by computer software based on publicly available property records and certain proprietary data as an approximate estimate of home valuation, and have not been evaluated or reviewed by a licensed professional appraiser. In accordance with the User Agreement, these valuations may only be used in compliance with federal, state and local laws and regulations including Fair Housing/Fair Lending laws and regulations.
