The Difference Between Your Home’s Tax Value and What It’s Really Worth
Your home’s tax value doesn’t accurately indicate what it’s really worth. If you want to know your home’s true market value, talk to an agent.
Let’s say your home’s tax value is $300,000. That means the home itself must be worth $300,000 right? Actually, no—that’s 100% inaccurate.
What we typically find is that, in a particular area, there is a direct correlation between your home’s tax value and its sale price. For example, if one home is selling below tax value, the other homes in the neighborhood are likely selling below tax value too. The same goes if a home is selling above tax value as well.
