At near $300k this home will be on the market for years to come....unless you pay near the asking of course.

The Plyler's were right on target with their advice.
Cherry Creek is one of our more upscale neighborhoods.
The only real way to get current data is with a comparative market data and a local agent has access to that info.
Also, Buyer representation assures that your interests are being addressed and negotiated.

Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

Ok! Found it!

This is a really great house! I have been in and looked around. It's very well kept, in a convenient location, and has a beautiful view from the backyard. A better way to decide what should be offered for the home would be to see a Comparative Market Analysis that takes into consideration what has sold lately, and the price it has sold for. That would give you a better idea. However, this is a great home and pretty well priced. It is definitely worth more than the 190K.

Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help!

oh...sorry it was cherry creek rd

Hi, Kayden!!

I know you must be excited, anxious, and a little stressed about looking into buying a home, but hang in there! You've asked a great question, and I am here to help! It would take some research into this property to find out exactly what it is worth. I could not locate the property on our system, nor at the tax office. So, I'm not sure why that's happening. Because I can't find the exact property, I can't help with a good offer. More information on the property would help. Are you sure it is in Lowndes County?

Scott and Satrina are right! You are taking some good steps and following through with your research! It's so hard to go buy the information you see there. As has been suggested, you would be best served by letting a Realtor do the work for you! They know the market and are prepared to help you in whatever way that you can!

I am a Realtor working in Valdosta and the surrounding areas. I will be happy to help in whatever way I can!

Let me know if there is anything that I can do to make the process easier for you or answer any more questions!

Happy Hunting!

Hi Kaydan, You are taking some of the right steps to determine what the possible value of the house is, but the assessed value does not give you a good picture. First you must realize that the assessed value and the appraised value are 2 separate numbers. You should find a good Realtor who knows the area and can pull you true comps to determine what a fair price would be on this house. A Realtor can help you know if this house is overpriced or not. One thing is certain, it is a Buyer's Market right now and a great time to purchase with historically low interest rates and tax incentives! Give us a call and let us help you navigate the waters to find a great house, in a great location at the right price!

Kaydan. Alot of things to ponder here. FIrst, not all that familiar with Valdosta but can't imagine in my wildest dreams that any home there would have truly appreciated that much since 2006. In fact, current marke value should be less than that if it trends like the rest of the US housing market. Best to find a good, experienced, full time agent and talk to them about your interest in this property. The pool doesn't add value per se. In any event, whereever you buy, it is usually not a good idea to buy at the top of the market in the area or neighborhood. Seriously, get a buyer agent - it will save you alot of time and money.
If you would like a referral for a good accredited buyer representative or similarly experienced and credentialed agent, just email me directly at smartbuyer@comcast.net
Good luck!
