Why Instant Home Market Values are Most Likely Wrong in Tahoma!

Buyers and Sellers should know that while instant home market values and estimates are a growing trend on the mega real estate portals and in the Tahoe area finding exact home matches is a challenge for the following reasons:

The Tahoma area was not developed by a single home builder with thousands of  similar floor models, which means each mountain home and cabin was a custom build, yes even the small studio with 500 square feet was a custom build, which means the automatic value algorithms the big websites use are not accurate, far from it, and don’t provide correct values for our area.

  • Instant values don’t know if a home, cabin, or condo has been updated.  They have no way of knowing if there are hardwood floors, solid granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, or updated bathrooms.
  • Instant values don’t know how to value lakefront property versus a split lakefront property, or lake view.
  • Instant values don’t know if a home has a lake view or not, and how to value that view – peek, partial, filtered, or panoramic.
  • Instant values don’t know how to value a flat lot versus a steep lot.
  • Instant values don’t know to add value for access to a Lake Tahoe lakefront home owner (HOA) recreational amenities (beach, pier or buoy access), pool, or tennis courts.
  • Instant values don’t know how to add value for ski-in/ski-out, mountain, or valley views.
  • Instant values don’t know how to really adjust for properties that have a carport, one car garage, two car garage, or more for the Tahoe area.  Our value is much more because of our winters and the additional cost to build and engineer for the snow load our structures will have to endure.  Instant values also don’t know the local rules, regulations, and other restrictions that may prevent building a garage, there by making properties with a garage more valuable and desirable.
  • Instant values don’t know how to adjust our California property tax values because of Prop 13 and how that skews the value system as properties are not updated with current market values each year in the State of California.
  • Instant values don’t know how to adjust for arms’ length “on the market” sales transactions versus private sales, or the changing of ownership because of divorce, death, or just the simple transfer of an individual to their trusts.  The value model sees these all the same and as a sale, even though the public transfer of title was an internal change and not a real sale.
  • Instant values don’t know how to adjust for road noise, or the proximity of a property to busier roads in the Tahoe area.
  • Instant values don’t know how to adjust for floor plan styles – standard ceiling height versus valuated ceilings, open great room versus a galley kitchen separated from the main living areas.
  • Instant values don’t know how to adjust for backing up to open space versus a neighbor that hasn’t cleaned up their yard, or improved their home in years.

Local real estate data and information are key is the proper determination on current market value.our home and it is an old-school method of knowing the local inventory and knowing what has recently sold for comparison purposes.

We know that each Tahoma property is unique and we want to make sure the Tahoma mountain home, cabin, or condo gets all of the credit and value it deserves for all of those special features it may have.  We also want to make sure we haven’t over-valued a property if it is missing features that add value.

As a Tahoma real estate home buyer or seller you should be aware of the following:

Tahoma homes that are selling quickly have several characteristics in common:

  • Well maintained property inside and out
  • Updated and/or upgraded
  • Clean, uncluttered, warm and inviting
  • Ready to show at all times
  • Priced according to the current market conditions

What can make a Tahoma mountain home or cabin stand-out from the rest?   What are the hot-button features Tahoe Second Home Buyers are looking to find?

  • Kitchen – Newer Updated/Upgraded: solid granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances
  • Open Floor Plan – The open, great room concept is in demand here
  • Hardwood floors in the main living areas
  • Bathrooms – Newer Updated/Upgraded
  • Energy Efficiency – newer windows, smart home technology, well maintained mechanics
  • BMP Certificate – Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) Best Management Practices (BMP) Work
  • Fireplace – Gas Log, or Wood Burning in the living room
  • Garage – Two car preferred, but one car will do (even a carport is a plus)
  • Mountain – Cabin vibe
  • Optional Home Owner Association (HOA) for Lake Tahoe: recreational water access and amenities – beach, pier, buoy rental option
  • Backs to, or is next to open space
  • Lake Views
  • Lakefront

If you’re thinking of buying a Tahoma home it will be more valuable if it has any of these updates, and/or features.
