As most of us know, online home evaluations can be highly inaccurate without much insight or financial guidance.
Experian’s article explains the true factors that determine a home’s value that should always be incorporated:
- Home sale data using closely matched homes
- The neighborhood – proximity to amenities including public transportation, schools, etc
- The home’s age and condition
- Property size
- The state of the housing market
I have invested in a new service for homeowners called Homebot. This is not your “run of the mill” home valuation report. It’s a highly personalized report containing valuable information to empower you to make smarter financial decisions when it comes to your home. It’s free for you and no commitment.
With Homebot, you’ll get a free monthly email called the “Homebot Digest.” It’s a highly personalized report containing valuable information to empower you to make smarter financial decisions when it comes to your home.
Here’s just some of what Homebot will keep track of for you each month:
- Current and historical estimated market value of your home
- Appreciation since you purchased your home
- Net worth/equity in your home
- Your purchasing power to buy an investment property or trade up to a new home
- Estimated rental figures for your home (or a room in your home) on services like Airbnb or VRBO
Yes, the home value estimate comes with the usual caveat: No online estimator can replace the accuracy of a licensed real estate agent. But Homebot is much more than those standard estimates you’ve seen on other sites. This is a tool that will help you be a smarter homeowner.
To get started, use the link above to enter your address on my Homebot site and follow the prompts. It’s that easy! I hope you find the monthly Homebot Digest valuable. f you do not, click “Unsubscribe” in the Homebot email and the reports will stop.
If you have any questions, you can drop me a note at any time.
