If you're thinking about selling — or just curious where you stand — the first question is always the same: what would my home actually sell for right now?
Zillow has an answer for that. So does Redfin, Trulia, and every other platform with an automated estimate. The problem is those numbers are built by algorithms that have never seen your home, don't know your street, and aren't accounting for the things that actually move the needle in your specific neighborhood. In smaller markets like the Triad, those estimates can be off by tens of thousands of dollars in either direction.
What I do is different from those sites. I pull real comparable sales — homes just like yours, in your area, that have actually closed recently — and build a picture of what buyers are paying right now for a property like yours. It takes more than thirty seconds and it's worth the difference.
Homes like yours, in your neighborhood, that have actually closed recently — not Zestimate guesses.
The listings you'd be competing against if you went to market today.
Days on market, list-to-sale price ratios, and what buyer demand actually looks like in your area right now.
Not a number designed to win your listing — one that reflects what the market will actually bear.
I'll follow up within 24 hours. No pressure, no pitch — just the numbers and a real conversation about what they mean for your situation.
The major real estate platforms generate their estimates by pulling sales data and running it through a model. That model doesn't know that your kitchen was renovated two years ago, that your street backs up to a greenway, or that a comparable home down the block sold under market value because the seller needed to close fast. It doesn't know the difference between two homes that look identical on paper but show completely differently in person.
A CMA accounts for those things. It's built by someone who knows the Triad market, understands how buyers are reacting to homes in your price range right now, and can tell you not just what your home might be worth but what it could realistically sell for in the current market — and how long it would likely take to get there.
That's a different number — and a more useful one.
I became a real estate agent after purchasing three properties of my own and selling one. I know what it feels like to sit across the table from a number you didn't expect — whether it's higher than you hoped or lower. I'm not going to inflate your home's value to win your business and I'm not going to lowball you to look conservative. You'll get an honest read on what the market is telling me, what your options are, and what I'd do if it were my home.
If you decide to list, great — I'd love to help you get there. If you're just gathering information right now, that's completely fine too. Either way, you'll have a real number to work with.
No automated emails. No being added to a campaign. A real person who looked at your property and has something useful to tell you.
