Do You Know How Much Your Home's Market Value is?

As a homeowner thinking about selling a home at the Lake of the Ozarks, it may be beneficial for you to have a comparable market analysis conducted on your home. Our experienced agents can help you with this by providing you with market information to help you choose a fair price and make suggestions on how to make your home more attractive to home buyers. If you're uncertain of what the purpose of a Comparative Market Analysis is, we're sharing with you some reasons why it's beneficial for sellers here:


Provides an In-Depth Look at the Local Market
Our eXp Realty real estate agents not only work in the local market each day, but they live here too. So they understand the tiny nuances of each area in which they work. They understand the amenities that are in demand, the highlights of each area, and the key buying drivers that are selling homes in the Lake of the Ozarks market. An experienced agent knows much more about their market than any technological tool can provide, and are much more savvy in interpreting the results. Not only do you get a sharp look into your local area, but you are gaining access to years of experience from our real estate agents, and our firm.

 Highlights Necessary Improvements
Studies show that improvements such as renovated bathrooms or updated kitchens can increase property value by 8.7%. Not only that, but addressing some long over-due minor maintenance issues can save you big in the long run.. Investing in these upgrades now could help you not only sell your home quickly, but help you make out better than if you ignored the upgrade. Since a CMA will consider amenities such as full/half bathrooms, new appliances, size of the garage and note any additional upgrades, a comprehensive market analysis will shed light upon areas that can be improved.

 Sets a Reasonable Pricing Expectation
Every seller wishes to set a price that will make them the most money possible. Comparative Market Analyses can provide a realistic view of where the home should be priced, based upon the key data points reviewed. The last thing you want as a seller is to set the price too high, only to bring it down a few weeks later. By looking at realistic comparable properties, your Lake of the Ozarks real estate agent can recommend a fair price that meets the current market demands, thus moving your home quickly through the purchasing process.

So, before you list your home for sale, make sure you're not listing it too high or too low by having an experienced real estate agent at the Lake of the Ozarks do a CMA on your home. Our agents have the knowledge and experience to guide you through the selling process, and the drive and desire to get your home sold at a reasonable price. A Comparative Market Analysis is just one of many tools our agents use to assist you in your home selling process.

5 Home Buying Mistakes To Avoid

Image
Buying a home is a very exciting event, but it unfortunately comes with its fair share of pitfalls. Inexperienced home buyers may fall victim to common mistakes that can create added stress and frustration down the road. If you're getting ready to buy your first home at the Lake of the Ozarks , the team at Gattermeir Davidson Real Estate can help you avoid these pitfalls. Mistake #1: Not Getting Preapproved It's very common for first time home buyers to want to jump straight into touring different homes, before talking to a mortgage lender. When they do this, though, home buyers can get their hearts set on a certain property before they know for sure if they will be able to afford it. Do yourself (and your agent) a favor by getting preapproved for a home loan first so you will only visit homes you know you will be able to realistically consider buying. Mistake #2: Spending Beyond Your Means There can be a big difference between the size of loan you can qualify for and
