Common questions
How much is my house worth in Papakura?
What your Papakura home is worth depends on its land size, condition, zoning, recent renovations and position within the suburb. Automated estimates typically vary by a wide margin because they cannot see inside your home. A free appraisal from an agent who sells in Papakura gives you a figure based on comparable local sales.
Is the Papakura appraisal really free?
Yes. There is no cost and no obligation. We are paid a referral fee by the licensed agent we introduce you to, and only if you later choose to list with them. You are free to take the appraisal and do nothing.

How long does an appraisal take?
The visit itself usually takes about fifteen minutes. An agent will call within one business day of your request to arrange a time that suits, and you will normally have a written appraisal within a few days of the visit.
What is the difference between an appraisal and a registered valuation?
An appraisal is a licensed agent's opinion of what your property would sell for in the current market, and it is free. A registered valuation is a formal document prepared by a registered valuer, usually required by a bank, and it is a paid service. Most people selling a home start with an appraisal.
