The home value is often used to determine the amount a property can be sold for, as well as to determine property taxes, mortgage rates, and insurance premiums. It is important to note that the value of a home can fluctuate over time due to changes in the real estate market, economic conditions, and the condition of the property itself.

An appraisal is a more formal process that involves having a licensed appraiser assess your home’s value based on its location, size, age, condition, and other factors. Appraisals are often required by lenders when you’re refinancing your mortgage or selling your home. Since appraisals typically cost a few hundred dollars, most homeowners only pay for a professional appraisal if it is required for a refinance.
