If you’ve been in your home for the last five years, chances are you’ve built up serious equity—just by living your life and paying your mortgage.
Whether you’re thinking about selling, pulling cash out for renovations, or just curious what your home’s really worth now, it might be time to get the facts.
And if you’re a buyer wondering if you’ve “missed the boat”—you haven’t. There are still opportunities out there, especially if you’ve got someone on your side who knows where to look and how to negotiate.
