What’s in a home value?
The Lawhead Team would like to share the C.A.R.’s latest One Cool Thing about what can affect your home value.
It’s common knowledge that location, crime, and neighborhood comps can affect home value. But what are some of the more invisible factors that influence sales prices?
The view angle from the backyard
The maximum angle that opens up to scenery or nature from your backyard. This is measured from no scenic view at all from your backyard to 180 degrees, indicating that the view is scenic from every angle.
Footage length
The length in feet of the street-facing side of the home’s lot can affect home value.
Backyard exposure to neighbors
The measurement of how easily neighbors can see into a home and backyard.
Privacy
Researchers factored in backyard slope, distance to neighbors, home density, and other metrics to determine a privacy score. The more private, the more desirable.
Backyard slope
Homes with downhill-sloping backyards tend to be more desirable than homes with backyards than slope uphill.
