Determining the Value of Your Home

The market ultimately determines the true value of your property.

Before you compare your home to similar properties and establish a competitive list price, the following points should be considered:

1. Location
2. Size
3. Style
4. Condition
5. Community Amenities
6. Buyer Supply
7. Financing Options

Getting to Know Your Market

A competitive market analysis is an indicator of what today's buyers are willing to pay for a home. It compares the market activity of homes similar to yours in your neighbourhood. Those that have recently sold represent what buyers are willing to pay. The homes currently listed for sale represent the price sellers hope to obtain. And those listings that have expired were generally overpriced or poorly marketed.
