When real estate agents go about the business of placing a value on sellers’ homes, they usually rely on data attached to recently sold comparable homes in the immediate neighborhood. While the selling price of these "comparables” has a direct bearing on a nearby home’s market value, other factors also set a home apart from the competition. These intangibles may include being on the sunny side of the street, having a gorgeous tree in the front yard, having a better view than the neighbors, or having a lot that affords greater privacy. It is a real estate agent’s job to find that "certain something” that sets a client’s home apart from the rest and make the most of it.
