Not a Zestimate. A real Comparative Market Analysis from a licensed Florida broker who knows your specific street, your specific comps, and what's actually selling in Seminole County right now.
Before You Trust a Number
Last updated:
Your home's value isn't a fixed number sitting somewhere waiting to be looked up — it's a range that shifts with recent comparable sales, your home's specific condition and updates, current buyer demand, and how the property is positioned and marketed. A number that ignores any of those four things isn't wrong, exactly — it's just incomplete. A real Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) accounts for all four. An automated estimate typically accounts for one or two.
The Real Comparison
Automated home-value tools are a reasonable starting point — they're just not the whole picture. Here's what each one actually does.
| What It Checks | Automated Online Estimate | Ray & Kelly's CMA |
|---|---|---|
| Recent comparable sales | Public record data, often lagging weeks behind actual closings | Live MLS data, cross-checked against what's actually pending and closed this month |
| Interior condition | Not assessed — the algorithm has never seen inside your home | Assessed directly — updates, repairs, and staging condition factored in |
| Neighborhood micro-trends | Averaged across a wider area, which can miss street-level shifts | Local knowledge of specific streets, communities, and buyer demand patterns |
| Pricing strategy | None — it's a number, not a plan | Comes with a recommended list price and a marketing plan built around it |
The Factors
What similar homes in your specific neighborhood have actually closed for in the last 90–180 days — adjusted for size, condition, and features. Not what a home three ZIP codes over sold for.
Roof age, HVAC condition, kitchen and bath updates, and overall presentation all move the number. Two identical floor plans on the same street can be worth meaningfully different amounts.
Buyer demand shifts by season and by price band. What your home would fetch in a fast-moving spring market can differ from a slower winter window.
How It Works
A few details — address, approximate condition, any recent updates. Takes two minutes.
A review of actual recent sales on your street and in your specific community — not an automated citywide average.
A recommended price range and, if you want it, a plan for what selling would actually look like — no pressure to list.
