Need a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) or Appraisal? Online Appraisals Are Close But Not Perfect.

Are you needing a comparative market analysis (CMA) or appraisal for your exisiting home or a home you are looking to purchase?  

Web sites such as Zillow.com and Trulia.com can offer instant values on properties with little more than the click of a mouse; however, these online appraisals are close but not perfect.  Real estate Web sites may be helpful tools in estimating approximate values, but public data can only tell so much about a home and cannot always factor in upgrades, additions or the general condition of the home.  Use the values found on these Web sites only as a "starting point" and never take them too seriously. 

If you would like to know the value of your home or a home you would like to purchase and need a comparative market analysis, please contact me and I will be glad to assist you.
