Your home's value is not a fixed matter; rather, it can vary according to its condition, its location, the time of year, the competition and interest rates. Sue will conduct a free Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) of your home. This is the most fair, most accurate way to set the asking price for your home. Sue will show you what similar homes in your area have recently sold for, how long the homes were on the market and how those homes are both similar and dissimilar to yours.
