Professional valuation at no cost
What is your home worth today? A valuation built on real data, not an algorithm
Automated estimates never walk through your house: they do not know the roof is new, the kitchen was remodeled, or how your home compares with the one that closed three weeks ago two streets over. A comparative market analysis does. I prepare it at no cost and we review it together.

What the valuation includes
- Recent closed sales in your community, adjusted to the features of your property.
- Active and pending listings you would compete with today.
- Preparation recommendations with a real return: what to improve and what to leave as is.
- A list-price range and the strategy to defend it in negotiation.
How it works
Complete the form with your address and a phone number. I call to understand your situation and timeline, visit the property or walk it with you on video, and within days present the analysis with the numbers and the strategy. There is no obligation to list with me: the valuation is a tool for making a good decision.
Why the list price decides everything
A property that comes to market overpriced stalls, accumulates days on market and ends up selling for less than it would have with the right price from day one. A well-priced, well-presented property creates competition among buyers. My job is to put you in the second case.
What separates a comparative market analysis from an online estimate
Online estimators work with zip-code averages and public data that cannot tell a remodeled kitchen from an original one, a new roof from a twenty-year-old one, or a pool from a dirt yard. A comparative market analysis starts from closed sales in your community and adjusts each for square footage, lot, condition, upgrades, association and exact location. The result is not a magic number: it is a range you can defend to any buyer and to their lender’s appraiser.
The three numbers you receive
- The market range: where comparable properties have closed in recent months.
- The recommended list price: the one that produces showings and offers from the first week.
- The minimum acceptable price: the one that protects your net result and shapes the negotiation.
After the valuation
The valuation commits you to nothing. With the data in hand you can list now, wait, rent the property while the market catches up, or simply know your equity. If you decide to sell, the plan is ready; if you decide to wait, I tell you which market signals to watch.
Frequently asked questions
Is there any cost or obligation?
No. It is a professional service at no cost and with no obligation to list your property with me.
How long does it take?
After the first conversation and the visit, the analysis is usually ready within a few days, depending on the data available for your community.
Can it be done remotely?
Yes. Many owners who live outside Florida complete it by video call, with photographs and property documents.
What do I need to send for the valuation?
The address, a phone number and, if available, recent photographs and renovation documents. The rest I obtain from public records and the MLS.
Does the valuation work for an estate or a divorce?
It works as a market reference. Legal proceedings may require a formal appraisal by a certified appraiser; I tell you when that is needed.
