Determining the accurate market value of a property is an art and a science. It involves detailed analysis, careful assessment, and a deep understanding of the real estate market. Here at Alex & Matteo Estate Agents in South East London, our commitment to providing the best service to our clients includes ensuring they are well-informed about our valuation processes. We believe in transparency, and that’s why today we’re sharing some of our insider secrets on how we determine property value.
Our first approach to valuing your property involves conducting a thorough Comparative Market Analysis (CMA). This process includes analysing properties similar to yours in size, condition, location, and features that have recently sold, are currently on the market, or were listed but did not sell. By comparing these properties, we can estimate a fair and competitive market price for your home.
The old adage still holds true – location is everything in real estate. Properties located in desirable neighbourhoods or close to amenities like schools, parks, and transport links typically have higher values. We factor the location of your property into our valuation, assessing its proximity to such amenities and the overall demand for properties in your area.
The characteristics of your property play a crucial role in our valuation. We consider factors such as the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, the overall size of the property, the condition of the home, any recent renovations, the age of the property, and unique features like a swimming pool, a large garden, or a panoramic view.
The real estate market is ever-changing. Therefore, we continually monitor trends, including the current supply and demand, interest rates, and the local and national economy. These factors can significantly impact property values, and it’s crucial to account for them in our valuation.
Property valuation isn’t purely analytical – there’s an art to it as well. Our experienced team at Alex & Matteo Estate Agents located in Bermondsey has a keen eye for spotting those unique features and potential improvements that could increase a property’s value wherever you are based.
For instance, a well-designed, open-concept kitchen could appeal to many homebuyers. Similarly, the potential for converting a loft or extending the property could increase the value of a property for certain buyers.
This combination of science and art, hard facts, and softer, more subjective elements is what sets Alex & Matteo Estate Agents apart in our property valuations.
