Home Value
What's your home worth?
Pricing the home can be the single most difficult decision when selling your home. You will hope that the home has appreciated in value since you purchased it. This is the norm though it is not always the case. You will want to ensure you get the best possible price for the home.

Following using an agent, the most common and tried and trusted way of establishing the sale price is by investigating the sale prices of comparable homes in your area. Comparable homes are homes similar in structure, size and appearance to your home. Comparable homes will have the same number of rooms and same type of rooms. You can always attend open houses of similar homes in your area and also look in the local papers to get a feel for list prices.

You can also employ the services of an appraiser or other outside agency to help you determine the market value of your home. Another option is the Internet where you can find many sites that offer low cost or even free appraisals.

The following sites may be useful as you go through the process of pricing your home:
