I start from recent sales of similar homes near you, compare them with what's for sale now, and adjust for differences such as size, lot, parking, condition and updates. We go through the comparable sales together, so you can see how the price was reached and check it yourself.
Some things pay back and some don't. We walk through the house room by room and sort every idea into do, skip or optional, so you only spend where buyers in your area will notice.
