A common misconception among homebuyers is that the appraisal is there to protect them.

It isn’t.

The appraisal is primarily there to protect the lender by making sure the property provides enough value to support the loan they’re making.

It doesn’t tell you whether you’re getting a good deal. It doesn’t guarantee you aren’t overpaying. And it definitely isn’t a substitute for a home inspection.

Price. Value. Condition. Three different things.

That’s some worth knowing before you buy.

Five days.

That's the median time it takes a home in 's 18901 zip code to go under contract right now.

And about 60% are selling above asking.

But here's the part I find interesting.

Inventory across Bucks County has climbed pretty significantly since March. Buyers have more choices than they did this spring, yet the best homes in Doylestown are still moving FAST.

If you're thinking about selling, I wouldn't look at that 5-day number and assume your house will automatically do the same.

Pricing matters. Preparation matters. How you bring the house to market matters.

And if you're buying, more choices doesn't necessarily mean less competition for the house you really want.

That's your for the week.

Real estate is local.
