How to know what your home is worth

AI summary
A registered property valuation provides an accurate assessment of a home's worth, often required by banks for loans. While free tools offer estimates, a professional report starts from around $1,000.
Valuers conduct a comprehensive analysis, looking at:
- The house: its size, layout, condition, and materials.
- The land: zoning, title type, and risks like flooding.
- The area: school zones, amenities, and street appeal.
Current market context and recent sales data are also crucial factors in determining the final figure.
