Establishing a property value is one of the most important functions a property buyer or seller can do.

It is in this one area that the most deceptive conduct from real estate agents occurs. Agents simply lie about what a property is worth (review what agents do). Real estate agents simply have an agenda when they give a market opinion or represent a properties value.

Real estate agents want to sell the property any way they can so they can get paid their commission.

Zeroagents always recommends that people get an independent valuation of their property from a licensed valuer. Find Property Valuers in your state. 

Whether you choose to use a real estate agent or decide to sell your property privately, you should always invest in an independent valuation. This way you know what your property is really worth without having to accept the various prices real estate agents will give you as a market opinion. It also allows you to know how to price your property accurately for a private sale. No one wants to sell too cheap!

Buyers should also have researched the market before buying to familiarise themselves with market value in an area that interests them.
