Home is where the heart is. Home is where you nest, raise kids, love, fight, nourish and walk through life's major transitions, with the people who are part of you. For the vast majority of human beings, their home is also their most precious asset. But, aside from the unquantifiable emotional value your home provides, there's a fair market value too. The only thing is, that can be difficult to determine.
> Just exactly how much is your home worth?
> How would you know?
> How do you find out?

> Market rents and trends
And that's just to start. Qualified real property appraisers must hold a state license or certificate. Those appraisers who have done more than meet the bare basics government requirements have also undergone more education than required, and usually have a lot more experience to offer.

> Are they familiar with your area?
> How long have they been in business?
