The market data from 7 similar recent sales in TRUMAN HEIGHTS points to a value of approximately $659,637. To sell within a reasonable timeframe at fair market value, the $646,000 to $673,000 range is where I'd position this. Among the similar homes currently available in TRUMAN HEIGHTS, this price point stands out as competitive. The 2006 construction puts this home 7 years newer than the comp average, a factor in the pricing. At 0.08 acres, the lot is smaller than the 0.23 acre comp average, which factors into pricing. 7 comparable transactions in TRUMAN HEIGHTS support the reliability of this estimate. As always, a data based estimate has its limits. Seeing the home in person is the best way to confirm value. Ed Neuhaus, Broker/Owner | Neuhaus Realty Group
