Determine If Your Investment Has A Resale Value

By: marylandrealestatesecrets Home | Finance | Real Estate


A key component in structuring a good real estate investment deal is to find out if your investment will yield potential returns when you resell it. It is important to determine the resale value of your investment as close as possible. Though it is not possible to predict exact future, but there are ways to help speculate the fair market value of your property. Read the following points to determine if your real estate investment in Maryland has a resale value.

Determine the target area: A target area is the area you think will enjoy a high growth rate with good appreciation.

Determine the Fair Market value: Find out the Fair Market Value (FMV) of the real estate in your target area in Maryland. A real estate agent or a title company can find out this information. Request the agent for a Comparable Market Analysis (CMA) that would list the sale activity of properties in the neighborhood during past years in Maryland.

Determine the Tax Assessed Value: Collect recent sales information and find out the ratio of tax assessed value on the total FMV of similar properties sold in neighborhood. Local county government in Maryland collects property taxes based on property's tax assessed value. Assess this value and find out the value of the property that can be retained after taxes.

Local drive: Drive by neighborhood homes listed in the CMA to get an idea of the appearance and general market value of the property.

Professional appraisal: Professional real estate appraisers can provide you a good estimate of property's yield value. Appraisers will evaluate the value of the property in present market condition as well as give you a good feedback on what the market value of the property can be once renovations are completed.

Expected appreciation: Maryland's local government may be able to provide you a 10 year plan for the community where you intend to buy a property. This may include details of new developments, zoning changes, and new roads. In addition, past appreciation rates can also be a gauge for future appreciation. For instance, if a property's value has risen by 6% annually over the past 5 years; you may expect a similar appreciation in the present or next year. Find out the relevant information about real estate investment in Maryland on internet. Alternatively, find out companies in Maryland that track property values and growth rates.
