Home Valuation

We check our bank account balances weekly. We check our 401(k)s quarterly. But most people only check the value of their biggest asset (their home) when they are ready to put a "For Sale" sign in the yard.

That is a mistake.

Your home isn't just a place to sleep; it’s a financial tool. In the last few years, property values in Waukesha County have shifted dramatically. You might be sitting on significantly more equity than you realize.

Why does this number matter right now?

• Insurance Reality Check: If your home is worth $500k, but you only have it insured for $350k, you are under-protected.

• PMI Removal: If your value has gone up enough, you might be able to call your lender and drop that annoying Private Mortgage Insurance payment.

• Future Planning: You can't plan for retirement or your next move if you don't know what your "piggy bank" is actually worth.

The Robot vs. The Broker You can go online and get an automated estimate in five seconds. But the algorithm doesn't know you finished the basement. It doesn't know you added a patio. It definitely doesn't know that your neighborhood is in high demand this month.

I offer a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) that is built on real data, not guesswork. It’s free, it’s confidential, and it gives you the power of knowing exactly where you stand.

Curious about your number? Shoot me a text. I can pull the comps and give you a realistic range… no pressure to sell, just good information to have.
