Lowest Comp Recommended List: $595,000 to $602,000 Highest Comp
Taking into account 6 nearby comparable sales, this property's estimated value comes to $627,390. If we were to list this property today, I'd recommend a list price in the $595,000 to $602,000 range. This pricing would rank the home as the most expensive of 3 comparable homes on the market in LA REATA RANCH's current inventory. Being 377 sqft larger than the average comparable sale in this area impacts the per square foot value. Being built in 2009 (29 years newer than comps) is factored into the value estimate. The active market in LA REATA RANCH includes 3 comparable homes priced from $575,000 to $1,299,000. The 6 month price trend in 78957: risen 3.9%. The best comp here is 159 Farris LN, Smithville TX 78957 at an adjusted value of $559,777, with a smaller floor plan. This estimate draws on 6 comparable sales, offering a reliable picture of market value. That said, this is a data only estimate. A walkthrough could change the picture.
