Property
Values
It is important to
determine how much your house is worth in today's market in order to price your home
accurately. An under priced home will sell but you will end up losing money. An
overpriced home will sit on the market with no bites because it's not worth the price.
A good place to start is with comps
by obtaining a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) Report that will
display properties that are currently 'On the Market', Under Agreement
and ones that have recently Sold. Best Choice Realty offers FREE CMA's over the net.
