Still relying on your March appraisal? It might be time for an update 👀
The market has shifted, and we’re seeing the change firsthand across Redbank Plains and surrounding suburbs.
An appraisal from 3 to 6 months ago was based on the buyer demand, competition and comparable sales available at that time. It doesn’t mean your property holds that same value indefinitely.
And while online property estimates can be a useful starting point, they don’t walk through your home. They can’t properly account for the condition, renovations, upgrades, layout, presentation or those little differences that can have a big impact on what a buyer is prepared to pay.
There can also be a lag in the data. When fewer properties are selling, older sales can remain part of the statistics for longer, while agents on the ground are already seeing changes through current buyer enquiries, open home attendance, offers, negotiations and contracts happening right now.
The market can move before the online numbers catch up 📉
If you had an appraisal earlier this year and you’re considering selling, get an updated one. The best indication of where your property sits today comes from today’s buyers, today’s competition and today’s market.
