Who really determines the value of my home?

The buyers in the market place are the primary influence in what yolur home is worth. As you have heard before, your home is worth what a reasonable person is willing to pay. The key here is the word reasonable. Anyone will do anything that they must. So if there are no places to rent..........you can fill in the rest. But that is extreme. Less intense are factors of pricing, condition, and aesthetic appeal alongside affordable mortgage rates.
