Frequently Ask Questions

AVM stands for Automated Valuation Model. It’s a technology-driven method that analyzes various public records and historical sales data to estimate a property’s value.

Generally, AVMs, especially those on a national level, may not accurately reflect the true value of a home due to their significant error margin. These models rely on automated calculations from public data and often miss out on the specific characteristics and local market conditions that can impact a home’s actual worth.

To obtain a more precise valuation of your home, we recommend requesting a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) from our team. Our personalized CMA provides a comprehensive overview of market movements, competitive listings, and recent sales in your locality, offering a clearer picture of your property’s value.

A Comparative Market Analysis, or CMA, is a custom report prepared by our experienced agents. It involves a detailed comparison of your home with similar properties in your area that are either on the market or have been sold recently. This analysis takes into account various factors such as market trends, location, and unique features of your home like its condition and amenities. This tailored approach enables our agents to provide you with a well-informed estimation of your home’s market value.

Why Your Home’s Value Matters

Outside of providing a place for your family to live, your home is an important part of your financial plan, too.

Here’s why it matters:

Investment value:

Over time, your home should theoretically increase in value. When your home increases in value, your net worth increases. If you sell your home later, you will make money on your investment.

Resell value:

“If you are within 3 years of selling your home, you will want to keep tabs on the value and the real estate market in hopes that you can sell at an opportunistic time,” says Jose V. Sanchez, financial advisor and contributor to LifeInsuranceToolkit.com.

Borrowing power:

This is especially true if you ever wind up borrowing against your home’s value. If the value of your home increases significantly, you’ll have a lot more leeway when it comes to taking out a home equity line of credit, or HELOC to pay for expenses like a remodel, a car or education for your kids.

Estate planning:

Finally, knowing your home’s value can be important when it comes to estate and elder law care planning as well, notes Joseph A. Carbone, Jr., CFP Founder and Wealth Advisor of Focus Planning Group.

Tax implications:

“Keeping an eye on the market value and property tax assessment value is important so that you’re not paying tax on an artificially inflated property value by mistake, or vice versa,” says Minnesota Financial Advisor Jamie Pomeroy.

Homeowners insurance:

Don’t overlook the fact that knowing the value of your home is critical to making sure you have enough homeowners insurance coverage.
