Comparable Evidence
Recent relevant sales, not cherry-picked records that support a predetermined price.
A useful home evaluation is not an automated number designed to collect your email. It should explain the comparable evidence, the current competition and the assumptions behind the estimated range.

A market evaluation should consider recent comparable sales, active and recently expired competition, location, lot, size, condition, renovations, layout, buyer demand and the strategy you would use if you actually listed.
If a valuation cannot explain why your property belongs above or below the alternatives a buyer can choose, the number is not very useful.
Recent relevant sales, not cherry-picked records that support a predetermined price.
The listings competing for the same buyer attention right now.
How presentation, timing and list-price strategy interact with likely buyer behaviour.
The structured form reduces back-and-forth and helps frame the valuation conversation around your actual property and timeline.
Build the brief once. Required items are marked *; optional criteria let you tell me what would otherwise be missed.
