Yeah I suppose really its worth what someone is prepared to pay for it ? only asking as bought a house that was a repo and literally gutted it and the only thing not replaced is the front door so wondering if im sitting on profit or not and its abit of a funny one as my house is the biggest on the street and many streets around as it was the only one with room for a decent extension | |

quote: Property Valuation of near any kind, bar residual valuation and contractors method, is merely an opinion. When valuing residential property, the comparable method is used. In simple terms, estate agents look at what else is on the market in the area and use this as a guide price. For instance, if you had a 3 bed with a garage. Next street same house for sale without a garage, is £150,000 House on next street with 4 beds and garage is £200,000 You could assume your value would be in the middle somewhere, with further evidence firming it up. But as said, overall it is merely someone's opinion, one you can roughly gauge through property websites. | |

Don't worry about Paul_J deano, he has the benefit of knowing at least 6 months in advance exactly what the housing and mortgage market will do, normal humans don't have that advantage. | |

In my own unscientific, based on nothing more than hunch, opinion they are on an upward curve. | |

Mostly bullshit, even a 0.001% increase is met with a media frenzy. | |

It does become a bit like bitcoin hype to be fair sometimes... the recent press about house prices rising has sparked a lot of people now looking to get on the ladder 'to not miss out / be left behind' - which in turn causes a rise in demand compared to supply and the prices rise. (Just like the bitcoin bubble). | |
