Finding Home Market Value

Two of the most frequent questions asked from potential home buyers are "How much should I offer for this house?" and "What are normal and acceptable concessions from the home seller?" There are, unfortunately, no stock answers to those questions. Unlike other businesses (major purchases where prices are negotiable) Real Estate does not have an established selling price nor a specific set cost. There is no MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price) or "Set" cost for a house. Therefore, it is impossible to give "standards" as to Home Value and either fair or normal. Every property stands on its own price, condition, terms and merits.

As an example, it is not uncommon to have two very similar properties in the same neighborhood or area with two different prices. This may be due to differences in the condition of the homes, or amenities or the motivations and perception of value from the seller. The following table is a simplified example of what you may find in a given area. The neighborhood average is for homes that have SOLD and CLOSED in the prior months. Although there are some variations in size and age between one property and another, we'll assume that they are in similar condition and have basically the same amenities per price range.
