We received the following email from a Home Owner in Apex NC recently:
"I received a postcard from the Francis Home Team stating that the average sales price per square foot in my community is $107.54. I just had my house appraised and the price per square foot turned out to be $101.60 or $14,850 less than that estimate. Thought you should know this."
We appreciate this Home Owner sharing their concern - we're *always* happy to share our real estate experience and knowledge! Here's the response that this Home Owner found very helpful:
"Thanks so much for contacting us about your appraisal. The postcard data is based on the most recent home sales in your Apex community - typically for the most recent quarter. We don't go into your house - of course! - so the Appraiser had more detailed info. In addition, Appraisers will focus on homes of approximately the same squre footage because smaller homes will tend to have a higher dollars-per-square-foot than bigger homes. Our number is s straight numeric average of recently sold homes - much more of a 'benchmark' than an indepth analysis." And, unlike an Appraisal, our Market Update Postcards are also free!

From www.hollyspringsnc.us "A name like Holly Springs conjures images of cool waters steadily trickling from resilient,
deep aquifers, springs that run past vibrant, age-old holly trees that have withstood storms and droughts, wars and
depressions, and times of peace and prosperity. Indeed, this southern Wake Town originated at such a place, where
40-foot holly trees towered over freshwater springs.
Nestled among Apex, Cary and Fuquay-Varina, all towns experiencing growth from the heavily populated Raleigh and RTP
areas, Holly Springs is rapidly growing."
