If you’re looking to find out how much your property is worth, there’s no shortage of free property estimators and price guides out there. They’re all free, and they’re all fast and easy to use. But the truth is, not all of them are free, and not all of them offer accurate price estimates. So, what’s the best way to get a price estimate for your property?

Free property reports

Property reports are fast and easy to create. They're great for getting an estimate of the price range of your property, as well as comparing it to other similar sales in the area and giving you some info about the suburb you live in. The only downside is that they can be pretty broad and they're created in exchange for you giving them your contact info, which they pass on to lenders or real estate agents depending on if you're looking to buy or sell your house. They can be pretty picky about who they contact you about.

Property calculators

These calculators are the fastest to use, and you don’t have to supply your contact information or reasons for researching. In addition to your property price estimate, you’ll also receive your property’s sales history, comparable properties sold in your area, nearby rentals, a suburb snapshot, and local schools. Like property reports, property price estimates tend to be conservative and they’re powered by a computer-generated algorithm. They are not meant to be used as an expert valuation, but rather as an indicator of price.

With some of these calculators, you get a monthly update of your price estimate along with all the data from competitor calculators. However, to use these features, you must be logged in or have an account if you do not have one.

Property value reports

Property value reports are often provided free of charge and are powered data and analytics. These reports provide a 360-degree view of your home, including: Property sales history rentals history, listings history and, where available, development permit activity. The information provided is the most up-to-date at the time the report is requested and provides a fair and accurate assessment of your property.

Conclusion

If you are considering selling your home, you can rely on the tools provided in this article, as well as other resources, to help you determine your final sale price. Keep in mind, however, that your price estimate does not take into account your sales/negotiation strategy, nor does it take into account the emotional value of buyers who might be more willing to pay a higher price if they love your home. If you are looking to refinance your mortgage, your bank/finance institution will likely not rely on these price estimates, and will likely want to evaluate your home in person.
