Broker's Evaluation
Know what your home could sell for.
Get a broker's evaluation for planning your next move, with no obligation to list your home.
Your home is visited in person. A licensed broker reviews the information, studies the market and provides a written value and range with the evidence behind it.
What's included
Not just a number. The reasons behind it.
Your evaluation is built from your home and your market. Here's what you get.
Your evaluation report
A value for your home and a range around it, backed by comparable sales, the homes you'd be competing with today and what's happening in your market.
How your value was reached
A plain-language explanation of the method, so you can follow the reasoning and question it.
Your pricing choices
See your pricing options and the trade-offs of each.
Your preparation checklist
Priorities for your home: what's worth doing before you sell, and what isn't.
A follow-up conversation
A follow-up call to go through your evaluation and answer your questions.
A 30-day market update
About 30 days later, an email update on new sales, listings that expired or were cancelled, price reductions, and whether your pricing options still hold. Your broker reviews it before it's sent.

The visit
An in-person visit sees what an online evaluation can't.
The renovation you did in 2019. The view from the back. The details that make your home different from the one down the street. That's why your evaluation is in person.
Who it's for
You don't have to be selling your home to need to know what it's worth.
Selling your home is only one reason to need an evaluation. Planning your next move or making a financial decision are others.

Questions
About the evaluation.
Is this a certified appraisal?
No. PROP.EVAL provides a broker's opinion of market value. It is not a certified appraisal. If you need a formal appraisal, a chartered appraiser can prepare one.
Do I have to list my home afterward?
No. The evaluation is a standalone service with no obligation to list your home. It doesn't put your home on Centris or start another service.
What do I actually get with my evaluation?
You receive your home's value and range, the evidence behind it, your pricing choices, an explanation of how the value was reached, a preparation checklist, a follow-up conversation to go through your questions, and a market update by email about 30 days later.
Why does my home need to be visited?
Every home is different. The visit helps us understand the condition, upgrades, layout and other details that can affect its value. That's why your evaluation is done with an in-person visit, not just property data and photos.
How long does it take?
Your evaluation is ready 7–10 business days after the visit.
When do I pay?
Nothing upfront. You pay $500 plus applicable taxes when your evaluation is ready.
Can I use the evaluation if I decide to sell my home myself?
Yes. The evaluation is yours to use for planning your next move, including setting your asking price if you decide to sell your home yourself.
