Learn How to Find the Selling Prices of Homes in Your Area

If you’re noticing homes in your South Jersey community selling like crazy, it might be making you wonder how much they’re going for. Knowing what your neighbors are getting for their homes is important information for your own home sale. But how can you find the selling prices of homes in South Jersey?

There are a few different ways you can uncover this information. With this data, you’ll be able to come up with a fair asking price that gets your home sold fast and for the most amount of money possible.

1. Do Some Online Research

The easiest way to find the selling prices of homes in your South Jersey neighborhood is simply to go online.

The first resources that come to peoples’ minds for finding this type of information are sites like Zillow®, Trulia®, Redfin®, and Realtor.com®.

These sites make a good starting point for checking previous sale prices. However, what they can’t do is find homes that are exactly comparable to yours.

This is because the databases on these sites can’t take into account any unique factors of your home, like recent upgrades or improvements.

Without this knowledge, you won’t be able to find any homes that are truly comparable to your own.

In addition, these sites don’t include information on off-market homes in and around your South Jersey area. This is an issue because experts estimate around 50% of homes sold in 2021 got listed on the MLS.

So, where can you find data on off-market homes? Only licensed real estate agents have access to this information.

Lastly, online tools limit you with non-disclosure laws in certain states. These laws prevent the sale prices of homes from being disclosed online for privacy reasons.

So if your state has non-disclosure laws, you won’t be able to find accurate information to determine a selling price for your home.

2. Work With an Experienced Real Estate Agent in South Jersey

While online resources are the best in terms of convenience, they aren’t the most reliable. So if you want accuracy, you should turn to a professional real estate agent in South Jersey.

Only a real estate expert can log into the MLS to find the detailed price history of every property in your neighborhood and conduct a thorough comparative market analysis (CMA).

This is the kind of in-depth information you need to have weeks before listing a house for sale in your neighborhood.

Real estate agents also have specific knowledge tailored to your local area. An agent who has lived and worked in the community for years knows all the ins and outs of the local market and can help you price your home accordingly.

However, reaching out to a real estate agent can be stressful for many home sellers. That’s why at Your Home Sold Guaranteed Realty - Nancy Kowalik Group, we make it easy. We will help you start your home selling journey.

That’s why we’ve created our own CMA tool that you can use to get started finding sale prices in your area and figure out what your home is worth.

Our tool is tailored to the South Jersey area. It provides an accurate analysis of your home based on specific criteria you input into our system.

Here are some examples:

• Number of bedrooms and bathrooms
• Square footage
• Acreage
• Renovations or special interior features
• Year the home was built
• Unique exterior features 

The database will then search for similar homes listed or sold in your area. The result is a highly customized, accurate comparison between your home and the listed or recently sold properties in your area that are the most similar.

This gives you a great starting point to estimate your home’s value. To get started with our analysis tool, simply click here.

3. Look Through Public Records

Another way you can find the selling prices of homes in South Jersey is by visiting places that hold public records. These are places like local county courthouses and tax assessors’ offices.

This method is more time-consuming and also tends to be inaccurate because you may not find all the information you need. In addition, there’s the same issue as with online tools– there’s no way to include the unique features and customizations you’ve added to your home over the years.
