What Is Your Home Worth?

Yes. There's no cost and no requirement to list with Manan afterward — it's a genuine starting point for homeowners who want a realistic sense of value, whether they're selling soon, refinancing, or just curious.

A realtor's evaluation is based on current comparable sales and live market activity, which is generally reliable for setting a list price. A formal bank appraisal is a separate, more rigid process typically required for financing, often using slightly different criteria, and can land somewhat differently than a market evaluation.

Not for the evaluation itself — Manan can account for condition and clutter mentally during the walkthrough. If you decide to sell, that's when prep and staging conversations become worth having, before photos and showings.

The walkthrough typically takes well under an hour. A written estimate follows shortly after, once comparable sales in your immediate area have been pulled and reviewed.

Location and comparable recent sales carry the most weight, followed by size, lot, condition, and updates — kitchens and bathrooms especially. Market timing matters too: the same home can evaluate differently a few months apart if inventory or interest rates shift. Manan will walk through what's specifically driving your number, not just hand you a figure.

Roughly once a year is reasonable if you're tracking equity for planning purposes — refinancing, an eventual sale, or just staying informed. Market conditions can move meaningfully within 12 months, so a number from a couple of years ago may no longer reflect reality.
