How to estimate a house price in As

An estimate starts from recent sales of comparable houses in the municipality, then adjusts that benchmark for the features specific to the property.

The prices shown above give the level of the local market. The estimate consists of placing a specific house against that level.

Three families of criteria explain most of the gap between two neighbouring houses.

  • The living area and the size of the plot, which set the starting range.
  • The condition of the building and the age of the major items: roof, window frames, electrics, heating.
  • The energy performance, measured by the EPC certificate, which drives running costs.

The location within the municipality then adjusts the result, and a visit settles it: only a visit reveals the flaws and the strengths that no data shows.
