$6.9 Trillion...

While doing some research on real estate markets throughout the country, we came across an astonishing statistic published by Zillow - “The total value of private residential real estate in the U.S grew by a record $6.9 trillion in 2021, to $43.2 trillion.”
The TYPICAL U.S. home rose in value by 19.6% in 2021.
In some of Maine’s most popular counties, we’ve seen large increases in home values including 16.7% in York County, 17.9% in Androscoggin County, 17.9% in Cumberland County, and a whopping 38.0% in Sagadahoc County.
And in some towns and cities the rate was even higher- Portland’s home values went up 26%.
If you’re wondering what that means for you and your home, I’d love to prepare a home valuation report for you to help you understand just how much your home is worth in today’s real estate market.
Most people find it helpful - even if they aren’t thinking of selling. Some choose to tap that equity for other purposes such as home improvements, college tuition, or investments.
Is this something you’d be interested in?
PS - If you are thinking of selling in the next few months, let me know ASAP and I’ll get this report to you within 24 hours. My contact info is at the base of this page.
