Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Curious about what happens during a property appraisal? Whether you're thinking of selling, refinancing, or just want to know your home's value in the current market, I've got you covered! Let's break it down together.

Why Get a Property Appraisal?

Getting a property appraisal isn't just for selling your home. Here are a few other reasons you might want one:
- **Refinancing**: Need a fresh estimate for a new mortgage deal?
- **Home Improvements**: Made some upgrades and want to see how they've boosted your home's value?
- **Market Check**: Just want to stay updated on your home's worth due to market fluctuations?
- **Investment Plans**: Considering purchasing another property?

Whatever your reason, a property appraisal can give you a clear picture of the value of your home. 🏘️✨

The Appraisal Process - What to Expect

1. **Get in Touch**: Give me a call anytime to schedule your appraisal. We'll find a time that works best for you. 📞

2. **Home Walkthrough**: We’ll take a tour of your home, checking out the condition, size, and all the special features. We'll look at:
- Number of bedrooms and bathrooms 🛏️🛁
- Parking spaces 🚗
- Any unique additions or recent improvements 🛠️

3. **Market Research**: After the walkthrough, we’ll dive into some serious research. We'll look at recent sales of similar properties in your area to understand what the market is like. This includes:
- Location and its proximity to amenities like shopping centres, lifestyle facilities, and schools 🏫🏪🏖️

4. **The Report**: Once we've gathered all the details, we'll compile a report. This will include our professional opinion on your home’s value, often called a price guide. This guide can help you decide whether to sell, refinance, or simply know your home's worth.
