How To Use Long Beach Housing Prices August 2021 To Your Advantage
I like to look at the average pricing city wide and then break it down by zip code and neighborhood. This method gives me, as a real estate agent, insights into the trends of an area. Which I pass unto my clients.
When you fall in love with a house, I will use the real estate multiple listing service and recent sales in the past 3 months and 6 months to establish home values. I don’t look at Redfin, Realtor.com or Zillow to figure out market values and neither do appraisers that work for a bank.
You need to look at the real numbers otherwise your idea of value can be way off from some of these online estimator companies.
