How you find the fair market value of your home depends on how you plan to use it. If you’re just wondering what your house is worth for no particular reason, then getting a Basic Comps Report will do just fine.
But if you need real estate comps for a more important reason, like buying, selling, refinancing or remodeling a house, then you may want to consider the most accurate way of finding your home’s value: a CMA.
A CMA is far more detailed than a Basic Comps Report. A CMA is a Comparative Market Analysis Report that not only shows all of the details and features of the properties but it also makes value adjustments for their differences.
And if your home value is really important to you, a one-on-one phone consultation from a Home Value Expert is also an option.
