One of the first questions every seller asks is: what is my home worth? The honest answer is that your home is worth what a willing, informed buyer will pay for it in today's market - and getting that number right is both an art and a science.
A Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) is the tool agents use to estimate market value. It looks at recent sales of similar properties in your neighbourhood - comparable size, condition, age, and features - and adjusts for differences to arrive at a reasonable price range.
The key word is recent. Sales from two years ago, even in your immediate neighbourhood, may not reflect current market conditions. The Kamloops market has moved in both directions over the past few years, and pricing on stale data can lead to significant miscalculation.
Condition matters too. A well-maintained, updated home commands a premium over a similar property that needs work. Understanding where your home sits on that spectrum - honestly - is part of setting an accurate price.
Online valuation tools (like Zestimate or BC Assessment) are a starting point, not an answer. They don't know about your renovation, your view, your suite, or the specific buyer demand in your immediate area.
