Home Values Via The Internet; Not!!
I am a little puzzled at some of the different things that I see being offered by some real estate websites.
One in particular is obtaining, via a form that one fills out on the internet, a current value of one’s home. Now, I am not sure how this is done because, like this little plant that is trying to grow in the sand, it is almost impossible to determine a value unless you have actually viewed the property.
At the very least, there should be at least one visit to a prospective Seller’s home, if not two.
In obtaining info via the internet without a home visit could surely distort the true value, thus giving the potential Seller either an inflated value or one that is under the true value; either of these could pose problems for a home seller.
So, if you are considering the sale of your property, make sure that the Real Estate Representative makes at least one visit to your home; you are owed some due diligence whether the opinion is offered free of charge or not!
