You have a home of a certain size, with a certain number of bedrooms, bathrooms and a certain sized garden. Is it going to be easy to simply convert that into a price of exactly what your home is worth?
The housing market is a strange beast and, whilst in other areas of commerce and business, a commodity is only worth what someone will pay for it, the housing market is in some ways slightly different. The cost of house prices fluctuates so much that the actual cost of a home is not set by necessity so much as what people expect they will have to pay for a home.

However, even when you know the average house price for a house of your size and spec, there are still going to be many things that affect how much your home is worth. Different areas will be able to command vastly different sums for the exact same house, whilst the number of similar-sized homes on the market in your area will also have an effect on how much you are likely to be able to get for your house.

The history of a house can also make a difference as can the age, style and even the shape of the house. Therefore, finding out how much your house is worth is never going to be simply a case of going by the commodities you have. The best estate agents will be able to give you a very good estimate, and finding the right local estate agents to offer you a valuation is extremely important.

Should you ask for too much, people simply won’t be interested in looking whereas if you go too low, you will end up losing a considerable sum of money. The best estate agents are the people who will be able to help you, individually, and finding local estate agents is going to be important if you want those offering their advice to have the most knowledge of your own unique selling potential.
