Your home’s value in Keller, TX depends on local comps, condition, upgrades, location, and timing. The best way to know your home's worth is with a custom valuation—not a generic online estimate.

Why Zillow and Online Estimators Miss the Mark

Zillow’s “Zestimate” and similar tools give a ballpark figure, but they often:

  • Miss interior updates or deferred maintenance

  • Use outdated comps

  • Don’t adjust for lot size, school zones, or neighborhood demand

You could be off by tens of thousands of dollars.

How a Pro Determines Your Home’s Market Value

When you work with Glenn Wegner at Lone Star Realty, your property evaluation includes:

  • Comparable Market Analysis (CMA): Recent nearby sales with similar square footage, age, and features

  • Active Listings vs. Pendings: Shows your competition and what’s actually moving

  • Days on Market Trends: Helps price competitively without leaving money on the table

  • Upgrade Adjustments: New roof, renovated kitchen, fresh paint—all matter

3 Signs You Might Be Overpriced

  1. Few or no showings in the first 7 days

  2. No offers in the first 14–21 days

  3. Agents say “it’s nice, but overpriced”

The market speaks quickly—listen to it.

How Appraisals Compare to Market Value

An appraisal is for the lender’s protection, not your bottom line. It's usually based on recent sold comps only. In a rising or competitive market, a well-marketed listing can often exceed the appraisal value.

Should You Get a Pre-Listing Appraisal?

Not typically. It costs ~$500 and may still be off if the appraiser doesn’t understand neighborhood nuances or recent buyer trends. Your agent’s CMA is more dynamic and market-tuned.
