Real Estate Tips

About Appraisals >Fair Market Value

What is the best price for a piece of real estate? Mortgage lenders, appraisers, and real estate brokers use what is called the "fair market value" (FMV). FMV has been defined as "the price that a buyer is willing to pay and the seller is willing to accept, when both parties are knowledgeable about the property and neither is under any time pressure to buy or sell". Sounds great, but how is this price determined?

The starting point for determining a fair price may be an opinion of the value or "comparative market analysis". Such an analysis uses information on similar properties which are: 1) currently for sale, 2) already sold, or 3) expired properties (those which did not sell). Local, national and international trends and market conditions must also be evaluated.

By comparing similar properties in each of the three categories and the market conditions, appraisers, lenders and agents come very close to the maximum price that buyers would be willing to pay for a house.

I realize that buying and selling a home is one of the most crucial financial transactions of your life. In what can be a confusing and sometimes difficult process, it pays to leave as little to chance as you can. With my help, you can navigate unknown territory with ease. To fill the specific residential needs of home buyers and sellers, the Residential Sales Council of the National Association of REALTORS institutes a class of expert real estate professionals: the Certified Residential Specialists (CRS). Fewer than 3% of all Realtors have earned the right to be called a "CRS". Fewer than 3% have developed special residential sales skills and enhanced their residential sales knowledge through education, dedication and experience. At Bonnie Ferrell & Co., Inc., I am proud of the fact that I have earned the CRS designation, and therefore have the knowledge and experience to assist you through the entire home buying process. Additionally I am also a licensed residential and commercial contractor. I have been actively building new homes since 1996. I invite you to put my vast skills and knowledge to work for you.
