You’ve probably heard it before: “That house down the street sold for $X per square foot, so mine should be worth the same.” It sounds logical, and TV shows repeat it all the time. But it’s one of the most misunderstood numbers in real estate.

In this quick video, I explain why price per square foot can be misleading, how real estate TV helped make it so popular, and what buyers, sellers and appraisers actually look at when they decide what a home is worth.

If you’re curious what your home would sell for in today’s market, I’m happy to walk you through it. Call or text me at 978-494-0346.
