​How To Know If A House

Is Worth the Asking Price

• Pull ACCURATE Comparisons

So what are accurate comparisons? Let’s start with the basics:

• • They are within the same school district.
  • They are within the same zip code.
  • For SOLD comparisons – they closed within the last 180 days to a maximum of 365 days (this means the title transfer [closing] happened during this timeframe.
  • They will be located within a certain radius (the closer to the subject, the better the comparison).
  • Most importantly, the comparisons should be of similar design, size, and age.

2. Know the DETAILS of the Home

You should know the following:

• The timing of all updates.
• The age of all appliances.
• Have the most recent survey available to assist the appraiser.
• If you have a copy of your old appraisal (if you’re the owner), you can provide it (if it makes sense and will help provide value support)

3. Know the COMPS

You should know interior square footage and the year built of every comparison. If you do not have this or can’t find it online, you’ll need to call your local town and navigate to get to the right dept/person to acquire this information.

Attention Sellers

Before you keep scrolling to get a free appraisal report.

In a super competitive real estate market like we are in right now, where homes are selling in DAYS,

why would you pay a 4% (or higher) commission?

Schedule an online appointment with me now or call (631)831-9048.

I will sell your home for just as much money (or even more) as the agent who's trying to charge you 5% commission. The ONLY difference will be how much money you save on the commission.

Right now, homes throughout Long Island are selling in DAYS. On a $400,000 house sale, a 5% commission is $20,000.

What if I could sell your home for the same amount (or more), do it in the same time frame, provide you with an incredible customer service experience, and save you $1000's on the commission?

Call me to discuss (631)831-9048 or schedule a no-obligation 30 minute appointment.
