AI summary

A property appraisal is a real estate agent's free opinion on your home's potential sale price, differing from a formal, paid valuation. You can easily request one using Trade Me Property's tool to find and compare local agents.

When getting an appraisal, remember:

- It's a price range, not a guaranteed sale price.

- Get multiple written quotes after an in-person visit.

- Be wary of the highest estimate; choose an agent you trust.

Always do your own research to verify the agent's assessment.
