Researching, estimating, or deciding the value of any property can be tricky, especially if you have lived there for a long time and the values have changed.

In our current modern-day society, many of us turn to the Internet to do our research, which can be confusing and give conflicting values depending on the domain name you click.

You may have an inflated idea of the property's value due to renovations you have completed or have fond memories you have created while living there that impact your decision making emotionally. Alternatively, you may underestimate the value of your property, being unaware of its hidden potential.

If you want to know the actual market value of a property, we recommend that you seek a written valuation from a professional valuer.  It is important to note that a valuation is different from an agent's appraisal as it objectively estimates the value of a property.

For a minimal tax-deductible cost, it is the most transparent way to determine the value of a property.
