How do I calculate the value of my property?

A good place to start is the website zillow.com. By typing in your address, you access somewhat accurate values of homes around yours. Although not completely accurate, Zillow does offer a starting point. As part of the loan application process, an appraiser will assess your property and may value it higher or lower depending on condition, recent comps, upgrades, etc. Since a mortgage is a loan secured by a piece of real property, the appraisal determining correct value of the property in question is a crucial factor in the loan amount.

Property value can be determined in a number of ways:

• The market value of the property – that is, what a buyer will pay for it and what other comparable properties (comps) in the neighborhood have recently sold for.
• The appraised value of the property – that is, what a trained and licensed professional deems the property to be worth based on an inspection, comps, and a thorough analysis of the property and its neighborhood.
• Additionally, the appraiser estimates the replacement value of the property – that is, the cost to build a house of similar size and construction on a vacant lot. The appraiser reduces this cost by an age factor to take into account deterioration and depreciation.
