My House is Worth WHAT?!?!

November 18, 2012 John Kynor Leave a Comment

Money houseQuestion:

Our neighbor up the street just had her house appraised for a refinance. It is the same Raylee model as ours, but she did get the extension option which took her house from 1776 sq feet like ours to 2000 sq ft—I think her back yard is equally as nice as ours but our interior is just a little nicer (we have granite, laminate floors, and upgraded options that she didn’t include). Her house appraised for $220,000. We have ours listed for just under $200,000

Answer:

The unique thing about this situation is that she is refinancing her home and you are trying to sell yours. What’s the difference you ask? Well, with your neighbor’s home her appraisal is based on how much the bank thinks her home is worth. An appraisal on your home would probably come back in a similar range. I know what you are thinking… then why is our home listed for $20,000 less if it will likely appraise much higher? You are listed at the price you are at because you are trying to be competitive in a Buyer’s Market. I will say though, that if you can get a copy of your neighbor’s appraisal you will have a very strong bargaining chip with potential buyers. Let them pick up their own closing costs, and pay list price… they are walking into instant equity. It is a strong position to be in as a seller.
I hope this was helpful! If you have any questions, please feel free to email me, Facebook me, or give me a quick call or text!

Q Realty® is an Albuquerque real estate company and is locally owned and operated. Q Realty® or "The Q" was founded on the principals of outstanding customer service and we have earned the reputation of being the most “customer-centric,” honest, ethical and professional real estate company in Albuquerque. We treat our customers how we like to be treated.

Real estate used to be considered a sales industry and many companies still treat it as such, but not Q Realty®. Consumers do not like the feeling of being “sold” and neither do we. Instead we “serve” and “help” our customers with their real estate needs. As a result of our dedication to first class customer service Q Realty® earned a spot on Albuquerque Business First's list of the top 25 Real Estate Brokerages in New Mexico, as measured by the number of homes sold and the total value of homes sold by each brokerage

Q Realty® is comprised of only the most experienced and talented Real Estate Professionals who have reputations for delivering exceptional customer service. We specialize solely in the Greater Albuquerque Area, which includes Rio Rancho, Corrales, Placitas, The Village of Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, Bernalillo, Belen, Los Lunas, Bosque Farms, Tijeras, Zuzax, Edgewood, and the rest of the East Mountains.
