Frequently Asked Questions
What is my house worth?
Property values are based on the current real estate market – the results of recent local comparable sales and the current inventory of homes within a price segment. Other factors can impact the value – a Realtor or appraiser can give you an accurate estimate for the current market value of your home
When is the best time to sell my home?
May through July are typically the busiest months of the year in a real estate market with sales tapering off into November. December is traditionally a slow month in the real estate market with sales beginning to pick up again in January with a spring market building until April
What can I do to improve my home value?
