Kris Krohn here with Limitless TV. And today, we're going to be talking about
how you can know what your house is actually worth and I'm going to be
sharing with you the three best free ways of getting that information
Alright so what really is the value of a home?
You've probably heard that a home
is worth what someone is willing to what? What someone is willing to pay. So today
in Limitless TV, I'm going to be walking you through your best guess on knowing
what something is really worth before someone is actually willing to buy it
because that's really the caps 22 of the game is. I've got a house I want to sell
it and I can't really know what it's worth until someone else actually buys
it. So how I get enough hindsight to figure that out.
So to the dive deep into this, first you have to understand the difference
between the actual value of the home and the perceived value of the home. If it's
your home and you live there for example, you're probably super attached to your
home and you're probably thinking most people do that their home is maybe even
worth more than it might actually be.
Our emotions tend to get in the way and
distort reality. The perceived value of the home however doesn't change the
actual value. And so for example, you might have taken your own home and done
a lot of upgrades, done some things to make it look nicer and give it a greater
appearance but in actuality, this is this, these are the hard facts of life. A home
isn't only just worth what someone else is willing to pay but the base value of
a home really comes down to, how big is the lot that your home is sitting on? and
how much square feet it is. So for example if you filled your homes with
significantly higher furnishings, that doesn't necessarily bring up the value
of your home. If for example you decided to put in a gold toilet in your bathroom,
because you're thinking this is my home, this is my throne room, I'm going to have
my my toilet painted with gold leaf and I spent ten thousand dollars doing it
hence the whole must be worth ten thousand dollars more.
I got news for you,
I'm going to Home Depot and pick up a a piece of porcelain for $79 and your
$10,000 toilet does not elevate the house is value ten thousand dollars, what
it can do, is increase a perceived value and per increased perceived value at
best will only make sure that your home gets under
contract faster and you can fetch top dollar. But top dollar compared to low
dollar is a really small margin.
So the next question is,
How do I actually then
get my best guess on what what my home might be worth if I can't really take
into account my home furnishings? There are three free ways to get a concept of
what your house is worth and I'm going to share all three of these with you in
order of importance. Let's start with the least important. The first one is what's
called a tax evaluation. Alright? So your local county is going to do in a
value assessment of your property and they're going to get slow because if
they push that number too high all the residents get upset because your
local taxes on your property is going to be based on that tax evaluation. So your
home might actually be worth $200,000 and your tax evaluation might be for 130 or
150 or 160 thousand, it's guaranteed to be low but it starts giving you a basic
concept.
Next from there, look at the insurance you pay for on the house.
The insurance company they want to know that if the house burnt down and they had to
rebuild it, how much money are they going to have to put in?
Again it won't tell you
what your home is worth but at least tell you what the replacement cost is. This is
actually, this little bonus content? is that if the home is worth a lot more
than the replacement value, guess what? you're in a bubble and sometimes people
want to know, are we in a market trough? or a bubble? Because bubbles what? bubbles
burst. Alright. But this is by far the third and most powerful technique for
figuring out what your home is worth and it's doing what's called a comparable
market analysis. And a realtor has access to your local MLS, your Multiple Listing
Service. And they can basically take other homes like yours that have sold or
that are listed and do a comparable and basically average them against each
other. This one has one more bedroom, this one has one less bedroom.
This is a slightly bigger lot, slightly older lot, slightly newer home, slightly older house.
Make some adjustments and basically try to best guess what your home is worth so
you know what to list it for. Here you need to watch out. Realtors in general, I
don't want to call them a dishonest lot, they're powerful and they're
useful group of people. But a realtor is also hankering for a commission which
means they have to secure your listing. And if they want to get your listing,
they tend to tell you that your home is potentially worth more than it might
actually be.
Why would they do this?
Because if you're talking to another
realtor,
generally you're going to like the price that sounds bigger.
So your
realtor sometimes gives a little bit. I don't think they're walking around
trying to lie. They're just trying to score some business. That's why it's
important for me to work with honest Realtors that know how to be accurate
and precise. Because I'm doing thousands of homes. Thousands! which means that I
can't afford to work with people that use hyperbole and exaggerate up or down.
But a comparable market analysis by far is going to get your your most accurate
representation. So how do you find one of those? Well first of all, you can comment
