Homeowners in Surprise ask me the same question all the time: what would my home sell for today? The honest answer is that it depends on more than square footage. Surprise in the West Valley offers newer communities, large active-adult communities and spring training at Surprise Stadium. Many buyers here are moving from out of state, so presentation and pricing need to work for buyers who may tour by video first.

5 things that move home prices in Surprise

  1. Age-restricted or all-ages. 55+ communities and family neighborhoods are priced against different comparable sales.
  2. Community amenities. Golf, clubhouses, pools and trails affect value.
  3. Lot and views. Golf course, mountain view and larger lots add value.
  4. Updates and condition. Out-of-state buyers pay more for move-in-ready homes.
  5. New construction nearby. Builder incentives can compete with resale homes, so pricing must account for them.

How I put a number on your home

I start with recent sales that truly match your home, then adjust for differences the way an appraiser would, using my archive of hundreds of Arizona appraisals. I take out seller-paid credits that make some sales look higher than they were, and I show you the active listings you'd be competing with. You get a price range for your home as it is, plus what a few updates could add.
