Hello

Just about every real estate agent or broker will do what is called a CMA (Comparable Market Analysis) for an owner for free with no obligation. It is part of the service that most of us offer others. You could call an agent who regularly works your neighborhood or mails. If not, you could let me know and I can get an agent for you in your area through our Cartus Network.

I trust that this helps.

Any good realtor will end up getting your property sold at the best price possible even after a commission involved. Some questions to ask yourself before deciding--are you ready to be low balled just because a buyer knows no realtor commission is involved? Are you prepared to allow strangers into your home unescorted by a professional? Are you prepared to pre-qualify any buyer on your own without professional assiatance? Your buyer will be informed, therefore you as the seller need to be informed as to the general market. Anyway, MLSLI.com will help you as will a licensed appraiser.

I would hire an appraiser and ask for a "purchase appraisal". Best of luck... I certainly hope that New York is better for for sale by owners than Atlanta!

If you visit my website I have a Market Snapshot tool that will show you what is currently happening in our local market. I live in Woodmere as well and would be happy to help you if you have any questions.

Nancy,
While I think listing your home with a broker is EXTREMELY important, I would be happy to do a CMA for you without any pressure to list with me. I can go through it with you in line by line detail.

Please contact me at info@irenerobertson.com if you really want to know what your home is worth.

If you feel a little weird getting a "complimentary" CMA from an agent whom you will not be listing with, feel free to offer the agent the same fee that the banks pay for (BPO) Price Opinions (commonly $65 and up )

Sometimes a broker will come out and help you with a comp even if you dont' list with him/her now. This will allow them to get to know you just in ase you are going to neet their help later - and statistically, that's a very high percentage.

Short of that, you can go to sites like Zillow and figure out - but remember that Zillow is a long way from accurate, just give you some ideas.

Pricing is one of the most important thing = make sure you do it right.

Good luck,

Sylvia

There are different types of value.
One type if the property is being used for collateral for a loan
Another type if the property is being insured.
Yet another type for salvage value.

What I you trying to accomplish?

Taking your post at face value, it sounds as though you are asking "how do I set the price for house if I am selling it on my own?" If that's the case, ask a Realtor to provide you with a CMA, then price it 10% below whatever price the Realtor tells you.

Are you aware that 90% of the time the buyer who purchases a home sees the home with a Realtor? If I were selling my home, I'd use a Realtor. That's why 85% of owners who sell without professional representation list with a Realtor to get the job done. That's also way owners that sell without professional representation sell on average 16% less than listed with a Realtor...

You can have an appraiser do an appraisal for you or you could ask a Realtor for a complementary market evaluation.

Hi Nancy, I would recommend you meet with three local Realtors to get an idea on what your home will most likely sell for. If you decide later to sell with a broker, you will already have 3 agents to contact.

You can hire an appraiser. Or, you can reconsider and list your property with a real estate broker to take advantage of relocation buyers (who usually don't have time to look at "for sale by owners"), having your property exposed to all members of the local multi-list, and to have your property marketed on line and in print in a professional, consistent manner. If you list with a broker, the agent will do a comparative market analysis for you.

Nancy,
I would call two realtors and have them do CMA's for you. Let them know you'll be trying FSBO before listing your home. You may just see the value of using a Realtor, if not you'll know what your house is worth. Most Realtors will be happy to give you free advice as long as your up front with them.

Most Brokers will do a CMA for you. I would suggest that you consider listing it with a broker, especially in this market, a Good broker has already adapted to this market which can be quiet ruff.
