Get a Bestimate™ not a Zestimate®

Get a Bestimate™ not a Zestimate®

Why it’s important to get a Bestimate™ not a Zestimate® for your property

When you’re a homeowner, many of life’s major decisions rely on being able to successfully sell your home at an acceptable price. Most times people call a professional to assist them with selling a property after they have made the decision to retire, to move forward on new construction, or accept a job transfer offer. Home values are a big part of these major life decisions. Unfortunately, only having an idea of your home’s value versus being confident in what you can sell for before you make these life decisions could cost you significant time, money and heartache.

So, who do you turn to for accurate information regarding the current value of your home? The tax assessor? Do you order an appraisal? Maybe ask the neighbor at the mailbox if they know what the house down the street sold for? Please don’t tell me you rely on the Zestimate® from that huge online conglomerate. The most accurate way to determine your home’s value is to meet with a professional, experience REALTOR®. Get a Bestimate™ not a Zestimate®

If you have an investment portfolio, you are likely to follow your stocks and mutual funds to see their current value. Unfortunately, with a home there is no ticker symbol to look up the value of your home. Sure, these online real estate valuation sites want you to believe that they can accurately gauge the price of your home at any minute just like a stock. However, the reality is that home values are based on recent comparable sales of homes in similar condition and location. Algorithms will never be able to account for road issues, condition, smells, upgraded or outdated décor. You can call us anytime to find out the current value of your home, no matter what your future holds.

Unless you are monitoring similar homes that hit the market, drop their price, expire or cancel off the market, are you fully grasping the realities of the current market? No. That’s exactly why you need a Homes Sold for MORE™ committed agent on your side!

What’s My Home Worth in Grand Junction?

We’re now offering you an opportunity to enroll in our Bestimate™ home valuation program that will instantly email you when a new comparable listing comes on the market, reduces its price, expires or cancels off the market, when it eventually gets SOLD, and for what price!

Get access to the same information the professionals use to determine your home’s value at your convenience without having to meet with anyone. It doesn’t matter if you want to sell now or 10 years from now, educating yourself will give you the confidence you need to succeed in your home sale!

To enroll, simply call us at 612-306-9558 to speak with Paul Aspelin. We will ask you to provide your home address and answer a few questions about your property before getting you set up. No face-to-face meeting, no obligation, no sales pressure! or send us an email to start the conversation.
